NCT04408326

Brief Summary

This study aims to find out whether the use of angiotensin II, which is a drug to raise blood pressure has been approved by European Medical Agency in August 2019, as an add-on medication to increase blood pressure in patients with COVID-19, acute severe lung injury, inflammation and severe shock, compared with standard medication. In addition, the investigators will collect the data of Anakinra, another drug which is frequently used in this condition to reduce inflammation. The investigators will collect clinical data and outcomes from critical care patients. The investigators will analyse for whom these drugs are most beneficial and explore whether there are any patients who don't benefit or have side effects.

Study Arms (4)

Angiotensin II

Patients with COVID-19 and acute respiratory distress syndrome who received angiotensin II as an add-on vasopressor will be collected

Drug: Angiotensin II

Anakinra

Patients with COVID-19 and acute respiratory distress syndrome who received Anakinra (interleukin 1 receptor antagonist) will be collected

Drug: Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist

Angiotensin II control

Patients with COVID-19 and acute respiratory distress syndrome who also received vasopressor support will be matched to angiotensin II group by date of intensive care unit admission, age, history of hypertension, history of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blocker, respiratory support

Anakinra control

Patients with COVID-19 and acute respiratory distress syndrome will be matched to Anakinra group by matching age and date of intensive unit care admission

Interventions

Exogenous angiotensin II acts on angiotensin II type 1 receptor and raise blood pressure by vasoconstriction, salt and water retention, and stimulation of aldosterone hormone

Angiotensin II

Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist is an immunomodulating drug aiming to mitigate cytokine storm in COVID-19 patients

Also known as: Anakinra
