Brief Summary

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

The present study is designed for patients with mild COVID-19 phase, to demonstrate if there is a modification in the clinical evolution greater than or equal to 25% in their symptoms, implemented in two groups of patients under an early intervention treatment, a group ( A) will receive Azithromycin / Ivermectin / Ribaroxaban / Paracetamol and another group (B) will receive Azithromycin / Ribaroxaban / Paracetamol followed for 14 days followed by video call

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is caused by SARS-COV2 and represents the causative agent of a potential fatal disease generating a global public health problem. Person-to-person transmission of COVID-19 infection led to the isolation of patients who subsequently received a variety of treatments. Ivermectin treatment for safety is approved for human use by the FDA in parasitic and skin infections. Studies report the therapeutic safety of Ivermectin in humans with COVID-19, describing a 6.1-fold decrease in lethality compared to patients who did not use Ivermectin (1.4 vs. 8.5%, p \<0.0001). In this sense, the WHO and PAHO encourage the use of unproven therapies in the context of a randomized clinical trial (RCT). Anticoagulants have reported up to 20% in the reduction of mortality (heparin), Ribaroxaban is effective with the inhibition of PAR1 / PAR2 / PAR4 receptors through the blocking of Factor Xa and the formation of thrombin, having anti-inflammatory effects, decreasing arteriosclerosis and platelet aggregation. There is a Telemedicine working method implemented by the OOAD of the North Federal District, which detects early signs and symptoms of possible complications and offers an early intervention treatment policy for first-level care beneficiaries. Under this method, a quasi-experimental study showed that there is a modification in the frequency of recovered patients of 80-90% in patients diagnosed with COVID-19 after an early intervention treatment with paracetamol, Ivermectin, Azithromycin, Ribaroxaban in patients with COVID -19 from UMF 13 during the period of July-August 2020. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out a randomized clinical trial to confirm this assertion.

Objective: To evaluate the percentage of patients with a diagnosis of COVID-19 who modify their clinical evolution under a comparative treatment of early intervention in beneficiaries of the U.M.F 13 and U.M.F 20 of the I.M.S.S., during the period of December 2020-January 2021.

Material and Methods: A randomized, single-blind, prospective, longitudinal and open experimental study in 62 patients with COVID-19 from UMF No. 13 and No. 20 from November to December 2020. Including 31 patients in group A (Azithromycin / Ivermectin / Ribaroxaban / Paracetamol) and 31 patients in group B (Azithromycin / Ribaroxaban / Paracetamol). With inclusion criteria over 18 years of age, have type 2 diabetes mellitus, Systemic Arterial Hypertension, Obesity or overweight, PCR confirmation of COVID-19. For the video call, the Family Medicine Units have Electronic Equipment Installation for Internet use. Exclusion criteria are patients with severe COVID-19 (they deserve immediate referral to second level of care, hospital). Elimination criteria are Prior informed consent, medication is given randomly to a COVID-19 patient, a follow-up video call will be made at home for 14 days, recording sex, age, education, date of disease onset, taking laboratories (hematic biometry, C-reactive protein, D-dimer, Ferritin, prothrombin time, thromboplastin time, lactic dehydrogenase) taken at the onset of the disease, taking as an outcome variable the modification of the clinical course (clinical symptoms such as headache, cough, fever, conjunctivitis , myalgias, arthralgias, rhinorrhea, odynophagia, anosmia, chest pain, dyspnea) when granting treatment in groups A and B.. Statistical differences will be evaluated using the Mann-Whitney U test with a power of 90% and a type I error rate of 1% for the variable of modification of the clinical course in treatment groups A and B. analysis will be performed in SPSS version 21.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Two groups of patients with COVID-19 will be integrated, a Group A taking the following medications: Paracetamol 500 mg orally 1 tablet every 8 hours for 3 days in case of fever equal to or greater than 38.3 ° C, Azithromycin tablets of 500 mg will take 1 single dose tablet the first day and then half a tablet (250 mg) orally every 24 for 4 days, Ivermectin tablets of 200mcg which will be calculated according to your weight and dose, it will be every 24 hours for 2 days and Rivaroxaban 10 mg tablets will take 1 every 24 hours for 10 days and a Group B will take Paracetamol 500 mg orally 1 tablet every 8 hours for 3 days in case of fever equal to or greater than 38.3 ° C, Azithromycin tablets of 500 mg will take 1 single dose tablet on the first day and then half a tablet orally every 24 hours for 4 days and Rivaroxaban 10 mg tablets will take 1 every 24 hours for 10 days.

Blinding Strategy

SINGLE

Participants
For the conformation of the groups, random numbers generated by lottery will be used in which the patient will take a piece of paper as he arrives and will have the number of the group to which he will be assigned. With a type of block randomization, A (Azithromycin, paracetamol, Ivermectin, and Ribaroxaban) and B (paracetamol, Azithromycin, and Ribaroxaban).
