Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Methylene Blue and Photodynamic Therapy
Methylene Blue 1 mg/kg water solution.
Participants have orally received Methylene Blue solution of 1 mg/kg concentration one time in addition to the current therapy of the participant (e.g., azithromycin, hydroxychloroquine, aminodihydrophthalazinedione sodium, levofloxacin, etc.), if any.
After 3 hours of Methylene Blue administration irradiation of chest using 650 nm laser source with 18 J/cm^2 energy dose was performed.
|
Treatment group. Methylene blue (SamaraMedProm, Russia, Registration number: MP-001834, 13.09.2012) 1 mg/kg concentration orally one time were added to the current therapy of the participant (e.g., azithromycin, hydroxychloroquine, aminodihydrophthalazinedione sodium, levofloxacin, etc.), if any, and irradiation of the participant's chest was performed by 650 nm laser source (UFPh-675-01-BIOSPEC, BIOSPEC, Russia, Registration number: 2009/04648, 26.03.2009) with 18 J/cm^2 energy dose. For critically ill participants: Inhalation by 0.2 mg methylene blue (SamaraMedProm, Russia, Registration number: MP-001834, 13.09.2012) 10 ml water solution and irradiation of pharynx and nasal cavity by 650 nm laser source (UFPh-675-01-BIOSPEC, BIOSPEC, Russia, Registration number: 2009/04648, 26.03.2009) with 36 J/cm^2 energy dose were performed.

Time Frame: Day 84
|
The percentage of participants that have positive dynamics in patient status scale (EQ-5D-3L, SHOCS-COVID score) was calculated
|
Day 84
|
