What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CPAP ( Continuous positive airway pressure)Device

    The enrolled eighty patients were simply randomized into two equal groups: Non-CPAP group and CPAP group using a computer-generated table of random numbers. The group allocation was concealed in sequentially numbered, sealed, and opaque envelopes. Patients were selected from isolation center in Mansoura University hospital,Non-CPAP group will receive medical treatment plus oxygen therapy according to recommendation of protocol of the Egyptian Ministry of Health 2020 and CPAP group as in Non-CPAP group plus using CPAP.
