Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Evaluate the rate of patients cured at the end of the study. [2 months]

    The healing criteria are defined clinically as: disappearance of clinical signs of acute respiratory infection absence of fever

  2. Evaluate the rate of patients are pauci-symptomatic at the end of the study. [2 months]

    A patient will be defined as pauci-symptomatic if presence: Light dry cough Discomfort, More or less : Headache, Muscle pain

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Evaluate the rate of patients with worsening clinical signs [2 months]

    Patients require transfer to intensive care with the appearance of: Acute respiratory failure: PaO2 <60 mmHg in AA gold Signs of circulatory insufficiency: mottling, tachycardia, systolic BP ≤90mmHg or having dropped by 40 mmHg compared to base BP or Confusion or alteration of the state of consciousness
