The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has threatened patients, healthcare systems, and all countries across the globe with unprecedented challenges and uncertainties. According to the latest literature, most patients with COVID-19 have mild symptoms that do not require hospital admissions, and only a small percentage of those hospitalized require intensive care. In the intensive care unit (ICU), a registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) assists the critical care team by formulating, executing, and monitoring the nutrition strategies and interventions to meet the unique requirements of extremely sick patients. However, because of the novelty of COVID-19, the situation is fluid and guidelines continue to be developed and updated. This article discusses the interim guidelines available for the nutrition support of ICU COVID-19 patients and the challenges the critical care team and RDN may face from a nutrition standpoint.

“…Did authors rule out other methemoglobinemia causing common drugs like paracetamol, local anesthetics like benzocaine spray, magic mouthwash, topical ointments like dapsone which are commonly available as overthe-counter (OTC) medications in many countries? [2,3] Not to forget the E-cigarettes and vaping related recent reports of methemoglobinemia. [4] Hence it is very important to go through the medication list of the patient, or to confirm with the primary care physician regarding potential use of any OTC medications, herbal drugs and to extract a detailed family history of the patient of any similar events in the family members in the past.…”
