Abstract

Calls for adherence to evidence-based medicine have emerged during the initial wave of the COVID-19 pandemic but reports of outcomes are lacking. This retrospective study of a single-institution cohort including 135 patients with confirmed COVID-19 demonstrates positive outcomes when institutional standards of care consist of evidence-based supportive therapies.
