Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to test the effect of purified (acellular) amniotic fluid as a treatment for SARS CoV-2 (COVID19)-associated respiratory failure. Past use of human amniotic products (i.e., membrane and fluid) is FDA-approved for tissue injury and has been used to reduce inflammation and fibrosis in patients with a variety of medical conditions. The investigators hypothesize that using nebulized and/or intravenous purified (acellular) amniotic fluid will reduce both inflammation in patients hospitalized for in SARS CoV-2 (COVID19)-associated respiratory failure, potentially leading to a decrease in respiratory support.
