Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Mortality on discharge from the ICU (Proportion of patients who die, according to their causes). Measurement time: during the stay in the Intensive Care Unit. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1) Reduction of the deterioration of the lung function (Proportion of patients that did not require increasing FiO2 to maintain stable SO2 and without the need for intubation and / or Percentage of patients that decrease the values ??of positive pressure at the end of expiration (PEEP)). Measurement time: On the 7th day after starting the treatment. 2) Need and time for mechanical ventilation (Yes, No; time in days elapsed from the start date of ventilation until weaning). Measurement time: During the stay in intensive care, until ventilatory weaning. 3) Measurement of hyperinflammation score parameters (temperature, visceromegaly, cytopenia, triglycerides, aspartate aminotransferase - TGO, fibrinogen, ferritin). Measurement time: at the beginning, at hours 48 and 72, as well as on the 5th and 7th day after starting the treatment. 4) Stay in intensive care-ICU (Time in the ICU from the start of treatment until discharge). Measurement time: during ICU stay. 5) Immunological response (Determination of serum concentrations of IL-1, IL-6, IL-17 and TNF alpha). Measurement time: at the beginning, at hours 48 and 72, as well as on the 5th and 7th day after starting the treatment. 6) Behavior of prognostic biomarkers (Absolute lymphocyte count, C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, lactate dehydrogenase - LDH and D-dimer). Measurement time: at baseline, at hours 48 and 72, at the 5th and 7th day. 7) Clinical Adverse Events-AE (They will be measured as: -AE occurrence (Yes, No), -AE description (event name), -AE intensity (mild, moderate, severe), -Causal relationship (unrelated, doubtful, possible, probable, Definitive), -Measures taken (None, Administration of some pharmacological therapy, Addition of a non-pharmacological therapy, Exit of the study, Hospitalization / prolongation of hospitalization), -Result (Fully resolved, Resolved with sequelae, Conditions in improvement, Present condition and unchanged, worsening, death caused by this event)).
