Filter by:This is a protocol aimed at children and adolescents contaminated with COVID, treated at the Hospital das Clínicas, University of Sao Paulo, Brazil (HCFMUSP), in the recovery phase. The study aims to evaluate the spectrum of pathogenic lesions of the virus not only in the respiratory system, but digestive, immunological, neurological and others. Clinical, evolutionary, laboratory and functional parameters will be used.
This research aims to assess the use of an experimental and non-invasive procedure, Remote Ischemic Conditioning (RIC), as an adjunct therapy in attenuating severe COVID-19 disease. An excessive and counterproductive systemic inflammatory response is thought to be a major cause of severe disease and death in patients with COVID-19. Severe ICU cases frequently have markedly higher levels of inflammatory markers such as CRP, IL-6, IL and TNF-a; which is thought to be correlated with increasing disease severity. The relationship between dysregulated inflammatory processes and disease states such as acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are well understood. ALI is characterized by an acute exaggerated mononuclear/neutrophilic inflammatory response followed by progressive collagen deposition in the lung, and if severe enough, may progress to ARDS requiring ventilation.
This expanded access protocol will provide access to the investigational product Zofin for patients in outpatient facilities infected with SARS-CoV-2 who have mild to moderate COVID-19, or who are judged by a healthcare provider to be at high risk of progression to moderate disease.
The study is an unblinded, randomized, controlled trial for use of the AirFlO2 device for patients admitted to Duke Hospital with COVID-19 and tachypnea (RR >20 breaths/min) and/or hypoxia (Oxygen saturation <94% on room air or requiring supplemental oxygen at baseline).
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) was first isolated in Wuhan, China in December 2019. It is rapidly spreading worldwide, posing a severe threat to global health. Many therapeutics have been investigated for the treatment of this disease with inconclusive outcomes. Anakinra - an interleukin (IL)-1 receptor antagonist - had showed survival benefits in patients with macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) and sepsis and was investigated for the use in COVID-19 infection with promising outcomes.
Pre-procedure and Short-Term COVID-19 Testing of Outpatients Undergoing Non-emergent Invasive Cardiovascular Procedures
To evaluate the safety and tolerability, the antiviral activity, and plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) of zotatifin administered intravenously (IV) to adults with mild or moderate COVID-19.
Project is designed as a comprehensive population-based epidemiological study in Upper-Silesian Conurbation (Poland) aiming at: 1. analysis of available data on incidence and mortality due to COVID-19 and 2. estimation of the occurrence of viral infection SARS-CoV-2 as revealed by the results of serological test (ELISA: IgM, IgG), with assessment of risk factors. The project's objectives are: to assess incidence and mortality due COVID-19 according to sex, age and coexisting diseases; to determine the level of potential "underdiagnosis" of the magnitude of COVID-19 mortality using vital statistics data for Upper-Silesian Conurbation; to assess the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 based on the level of seropositivity in Upper-Silesian Conurbation; to identify host-related and environmental risk factors if the infection. Analysis of existing data will include monthly records on incidence and mortality over the period 01.01.2020-31.12.2020 and comparison of the findings with the monthly records of 2018 and 2019, for the same population. Cross-sectional epidemiological study will be located in three towne (Katowice, Sosnowiec, Gliwice). In each town a representative age-stratified sample of 2000 subjects will undergo questionnaire assessment and serological examination performed by serological test. The project corresponds with analogous population-based studies on COVID-19 in a number of countries and responds to the WHO recommendation in that field.
Currently, SARS-CoV-2 the novel member of the corona virus family, affecting the world leading to COVID-19 disease. It can result life-threatening condition by developing severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Based on previous evidence a group of patients with severe COVID-19 develop a cytokine storm syndrome which leads to hyper-inflammation lung tissue damage. Supportive care is the current management of COVID-19 is and management of ARDS as a main cause of mortality has been remained challenging. Therefore, an urgent effective treatment of COVID-19 regarding hyper-inflammation mechanism is required. Currently, development of novel anti-viral agents and vaccines are the main issues. However, it needs long time, from months to years, until suitable new medications and vaccines have been developed. An immune-modulatory tetra deca peptide (14-mer peptide) named Human Ezrin Peptide 1 (HEP-1) (trade name Gepon) was introduced by the group of Ataullakhanov in Russia. Regarding its proved anti-viral and anti-inflammatory effect, Russian authorities approved Gepon for treatment of ulcerative colitis treatment and Hepatitis -C. In this regard, it seems that Hep-1 is a very safe immune-modulatory agent which can be effective in the management of COVID-19 infection without any adverse effect for the patient.
