Interventions

DRUG

T3 solution for injection

For example, for a patient of 77Kg of weight, a dose of 6ml (60 μg) will be administered as a bolus intravenously over 2-3 min within 60 min of respiratory support initiation. Then, the patient for the next 24 hours will receive 21ml of the product (total of 210 μg of T3) that will be diluted in NaCl 0.9% and administered with a pump at a steady flow rate of 10.4 ml/h for a total duration of 48 hours. From day 3 till successful weaning or end of follow-up, the patient will receive 50% of this dose, 10.5 ml of the product (total of 105 μg of T3) that will be diluted in NaCl 0.9% and administered with a pump at a steady flow rate of 5.2 ml/h.
