Brief Summary

At present, there is no specific and effective antiviral therapy.In this study, an open, prospective/retrospective, randomized controlled cohort study was designed to compare the efficacy of different hormone doses in the treatment of 2019-nCoV severe Pneumonia.This study explores effective treatment programs for 2019-nCoV severe pneumonia and provides a reliable evidence-based basis for the treatment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Rate of disease remission

    For mild patients: disease remission refers to relieved symptoms with improved lung CT; For severe patients: disease remission refers to relieved symptoms with improved lung CT; or SPO2\>93% or PaO2/FiO2 \>300mmHg.

    day 7

  • Rate and time of entering the critical stage

    the critical stage refers to respiratory failure that occurs and requires mechanical ventilation, shock, or having other organ failure that needs ICU monitoring and treatment.

    day 7

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Rate of normal tempreture

    day 7

  • Rate of respiratory symptom remission

    day 7

  • Rate of lung imaging recovery

    day 7

  • Rate of laboratory indicator recovery

    day 7

  • Rate of undetectable viral RNA

    day 7
