Article Synopsis
- A phase 3 clinical trial investigated if intravenous hydrocortisone could reduce mortality in patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia compared to a placebo.
- The study involved 800 patients, and results showed that those receiving hydrocortisone had a significantly lower death rate (6.2%) at 28 days versus 11.9% in the placebo group.
- Additionally, patients on hydrocortisone required less mechanical ventilation and vasopressors compared to those on placebo, with similar rates of hospital-acquired infections and bleeding risks.
