South Florida doctors make medical breakthrough in treating severe cases of COVID
COVID testing sites remain busy as numbers go up in all California Counties including on the Central Coast.
Miami (WFOR) Doctors in South Florida say an experimental treatment involving stem cells has been incredibly successful in treating severe cases of COVID.
The study involved patients at Jackson Memorial Hospital and at the University Miami Tower. Many of them had acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
“I think this could be a turning point,” said Dr. Camillo Ricordi, director of the Cell Transplant Center at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.
In the trial, 24 COVID-19 patients hospitalized with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome received either two infusions of 100 million stem cells within three days or infusions of a placebo.
Acute respiratory distress syndrome is a serious COVID-19 complication that results from severe inflammation and fluid buildup in the lungs. Most affected patients need some sort of organ support.
Patient survival at one month was 91% in the stem cell group and 42% in the placebo group, researchers found.
Among the patients younger than 85 years old, 100% of those treated with stems cells had survived at the one-month mark. Researchers also reported that the treatment was safe, with no adverse infusion-related events.
