Abstract Pulmonary complications are the most common clinical manifestations of coronavirus disease (COVID19). From recent clinical observation, two phenotypes have emerged: a low elastance or L-type and a high elastance or H-type. Clinical presentation, pathophysiology, pulmonary mechanics, radiological and ultrasound findings of these two phenotypes are different. Consequently, the

therapeutic approach also varies between the two. We propose a management algorithm that combines the respiratory rate and oxygenation index with bedside lung ultrasound examination and monitoring that could help determine earlier the requirement for intubation and other surveillance of COVID-19 patients with respiratory failure. Re´sume´ Les complications pulmonaires du coronavirus (COVID-19) constituent ses manifestations cliniques les plus fre´quentes. De re´centes observations cliniques ont fait e´merger deux phe´notypes : le phe´notype a` e´lastance faible
