Past use of human amniotic products (i.e., membrane and fluid) has previously been FDA-approved as a human cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Products (HCT/P) under 21 CFR 1271 for tissue injury; and has been used to reduce inflammation and fibrosis in patients with a variety of ailments....
Past use of human amniotic products (i.e., membrane and fluid) has previously been FDA-approved as a human cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Products (HCT/P) under 21 CFR 1271 for tissue injury; and has been used to reduce inflammation and fibrosis in patients with a variety of ailments. Given this, the investigators hypothesize that intravenously (IV) administered processed sterile filtered amniotic fluid will reduce inflammation in COVID-19 patients, and improve secondary clinical outcomes. Specifically, the investigators hypothesize that patients who receive IV administered hAF will see a 50% reduction in mean C-reactive protein levels following treatment.
