Summary

Around 30% of admitted patients with COVID-19 pneumonia develop a hyper-inflammatory state whose progression to an acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARSD) could be prevented by the early initiation of immune-modulatory agents. The role of glucocorticoids (GC) in this setting remains controversial. This study aims to assess the safety and effectiveness of GC pulses to improve the clinical outcomes of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia with risen inflammatory biomarkers.
