Brief Summary

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

The FDA approved the antiviral drug remdesivir for use in adults for the treatment of COVID-19 requiring hospitalization.

There are only limited data about the safety of the drug in hemodialysed patents. Chronic kidney disease is a risk factor in COVID-19 for developing severe disease.

The aim of our investigation is to observe the safety of remdesivir among hemodialysed patients requiring hospitalization for COVID-19.

We are going to compare two group's data:

1. Hemodialysed COVID-19 patients requiring hospitalization because of pneumonia and need of oxygen supplementation, and admitted after 12/Apr/2021 - these patients received remdesivir.
2. Hemodialysed COVID-19 patients requiring hospitalization because of pneumonia and need of oxygen supplementation, and admitted before 12/Apr/2021 - these patients did not receive remdesivir.
