Need for mechanical ventilation
Three studies reported on the need for mechanical ventilation in
patients treated with Infliximab and no Infliximab. The meta-analysis
demonstrated no significant difference between the Infliximab and no
Infliximab groups in terms of need for mechanical ventilation (RR= 0.98,
95% CI: 0.65 to 1.48; P = 0.94, I2 = 30%) (Figure 4).
