Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Wang score after 72 hours of treatment

    72 hours

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Recovery time

    From Day 1 to end of the hospitalisation within 2 weeks, assessed at EOS (End of study for the patient, meaning discharge from hospital)

  • To determine percentage of patient needing transfer to the PICU or use of mechanical ventilation

    From Day 1 to end of the hospitalisation, assessed at EOS (End of study for the patient, meaning discharge from hospital)

  • To assess average time of Oxygen therapy

    From Day 1 to end of the hospitalisation, assessed at EOS (End of study for the patient, meaning discharge from hospital)

  • To assess average time of Tube feeding

    From Day 1 to end of the hospitalisation, assessed at EOS (End of study for the patient, meaning discharge from hospital)

  • To determine variation of Wang score during hospitalisation

    measured at Day 1, 2, 3, 4 and day of discharge.

  • +1 more secondary outcomes
