Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Adverse events assesment. Timepoint: At the same time of each intervention, 24 hours after each intervention, on days 6, 7, 14 and 28 after the first intervention. Method of measurement: Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0.;Blood oxygen saturation. Timepoint: At Baseline, simultaneously with each intervention and on days 5, 6, 7, 14 after the first intervention. Method of measurement: Evaluation of Pneumonia Improvement.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Biomarkers concentrations in plasma. Timepoint: At baseline, 7, 14, 28 days after the first intervention. Method of measurement: Biochemical examination.;Respiratory efficacy. Timepoint: From baseline to day 7. Method of measurement: Evaluated by the increase in PaO2/FiO2 ratio.;Intensive care unit-free days. Timepoint: Up to day 8. Method of measurement: Number of day.;Change in clinical symptoms. Timepoint: At Baseline, simultaneously with each intervention and on days 5, 6, 7, 14 after the first intervention. Method of measurement: Evaluation of Pneumonia Improvement.
