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
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Rate of disease remission [ Time Frame: day 7 ]
    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.

  2. Rate and time of entering the critical stage [ Time Frame: day 7 ]
    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.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Rate of normal tempreture [ Time Frame: day 7 ]
    Rate of patients without fever at day 7

  2. Rate of respiratory symptom remission [ Time Frame: day 7 ]
    Rate of patients with respiratory symptom remission at day 7

  3. Rate of lung imaging recovery [ Time Frame: day 7 ]
    Rate of patients with lung imaging recovery at day 7

  4. Rate of laboratory indicator recovery [ Time Frame: day 7 ]
    Rate of patients with laboratory indicator recovery at day 7

  5. Rate of undetectable viral RNA [ Time Frame: day 7 ]
    Rate of patients withundetectable viral RNA at day 7
