Distribution of mechanical power. Histograms depicting mechanical power distribution between a patients with and without 30-day mortality (median [interquartile range] mechanical power in patients who died within 30 days after start of invasive ventilation was 16.8 [12.0–22.3] J/min and in patients who survived 13.7 [10.2–18.6] J/min); and b patients with and without Coronavirus Disease 2019 (19.3 [14.6–24.0] J/min in patients with and 13.2 [10.2–18.0] J/min in patients without the disease)
