Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of early anti-inflammatory treatment with corticosteroids in patients who are in a phase of the disease in which viral replication has already been limited, but there is a marked systemic inflammatory response.;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the safety of early anti-inflammatory treatment with corticosteroids;Primary end point(s): Combination of death, ICU stay or non-invasive ventilation (NIV).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At the time of discharge or death

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - Individual components of the primary variable. - Clinical-gasometric impairment after the test intervention (defined as: (a) PaO2/FIO2<250; or (b) shock); or (c) worsening of qSOFA or BCRSS indices). - Change in SOFA score (comparison at time of inclusion and at 4 days). - Length of hospital stay. - Use of biological anti-inflammatories.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At the time of discharge or death
