About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Covid19 focused on measuring covid19
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Hospitalized adult patients with pneumonia evidenced by chest CT scan.
- Laboratory (RT-PCR) confirmed infection with 2019-nCoV or strongly suspected to be infected with SARS-COV2 with confirmation studies pending.
And at least one of the following:
- Respiratory frequency ≥30/min.
- Blood oxygen saturation ≤93% on room air (RA).
- Partial pressure of arterial oxygen to fraction of inspired oxygen ratio (PaO2/FiO2) <300.
- Worsening of lung involvement, defined as an increase in number and/or extension of pulmonary areas of consolidation, need for increased FiO2 to maintain stable O2 saturation, or worsening O2 saturation of >3% with stable FiO2.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Baseline elevation of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels > 3-fold the upper limit of the normal range.
- Pregnancy.
