Conditions

COPD with respiratory failure

Interventions

Intervention Group:The daily dose (4.8 mg/kg) is diluted in 48 mL of normal saline and continuously administered by intravenous infusion over 24 hours at a rate of 2 mL/h (equivalent to 0.2 mg/kg/h).
Control group:An equal volume of placebo, containing only the excipients of sodium sivelestat, was diluted to 48?ml and administered as a continuous intravenous infusion at a rate of 2?ml/hour over 24
