Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To demonstrate the efficacy of captopril nebulization addition to standard of care compared to standard of care in term of 14-day ventilation free survival;Secondary Objective: To demonstrate the efficacy and safety of captopril nebulization: - Efficacy : • Mortality at 28 day • Need of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) at 28 days • Length of hospitalization • Length of stay in ICU • Length of mechanical ventilation - Safety : • Respiratory tolerance • Hemodynamic tolerance • Metabolic tolerance • Renal tolerance • Skin tolerance;Primary end point(s): 14-day invasive mechanical ventilation free survival: defined as the proportion of patients requiring IMV or dying between randomization and Day 14;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 14 days

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - Efficacy : • Overall 28-day mortality • Number of days alive without IMV at 28 days • Length of stay in ICU in days (restricted to 28 days) • Length of hospitalization (restricted to 28 days). • Length of mechanical ventilation (restricted to 28 days). - Safety : • Respiratory tolerance: - Unstoppable cough requiring nebulization interruption - Increasing of O2 flow more than 3L/mn • Hemodynamic tolerance: - Hypotension requiring nebulization interruption - Hypotension requiring vasopressor infusion in the 24h after nebulization • Metabolic tolerance: Hyperkaliemia requiring calcium gluconate administration or renal replacement therapy (RRT) in the 72h after nebulization • Renal tolerance: Creatinine level increasing of more 50% or renal replacement therapy in the 72h after nebulization • Skin tolerance: Angiooedemea in the 72h after nebulization;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 28 days
