COVIDIOL: Prevention and Treatment With Calcifediol of COVID-19 Induced Acute Respiratory Syndrome
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The administration of Calcifediol in patients with COVID-19, will reduce the development of SARS and the worsening of the various phases of the syndrome. Reducing at least 25% in ICU admission and death from the process, reducing days of hospitalization, facilitating the recovery of the same, acting significantly and positively, in any of its phases throughout the natural history of illness.
As a treatment with extensive experience of clinical use, safe, inexpensive, and potentially very effective, it will have a highly efficient cost-benefit impact on the prevention of SARS.

Compare the evolution in the Sat O2/FiO2 ratio
- Evolution in the degree of dyspnea [At day 28.]
Compare the evolution in the degree of dyspnea using the analog Borg scale
- Evolution of the improvement of radiological findings by simple radiology [At day 28.]
Compare the evolution of radiological findings by simple radiology in the recruited subjects since their beginning in the trial until they end the trial
- Incidence of adverse events [At day 28.]
Incidence of adverse events related to medication and its administration.
- Appearance of hemorrhagic or thrombotic phenomena [At day 28.]
Incidence in the appearance of hemorrhagic or thrombotic phenomena.
