Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Part 1 (first 150 subjects):<br /><br>Difference in sensitivity of blood plasma SAA, CRP, ferritin and PCT levels on<br /><br>day 1, day 3, day 5 and day 7 of hospital stay in patients with severe versus<br /><br>non-severe COVID-19 disease course. The sensitivity of SAA will be compared to<br /><br>that of each parameter (CRP, ferritin, PCT) separately.<br /><br><br /><br>Part 2 (after interim analysis and sample size calculation):<br /><br>Difference in sensitivity of blood plasma SAA and the parameter with the<br /><br>highest prognostic ability (determined in part 1 of the study) on the day with<br /><br>the highest prognostic ability (determined in part 1 of the study) of hospital<br /><br>stay in patients with severe versus non-severe COVID-19 disease course. The<br /><br>main study endpoint of part 2 depends on the outcome of the interim analyses. </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, positive and<br /><br>negative likelihood ratios SAA versus CRP, ferritin and PCT.</p><br>
