NCT ID: NCT04447144 Recruiting - Covid19 Clinical Trials

Nutritional Habits, and Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Outcome

Start date: June 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

As of May 30th more than 23,000 cases of COVID -19 cases were confirmed in Egypt with total deaths of 913. Post viral entry, intense immune response against the virus with infiltration of monocytes and macrophages into alveolar cells with decreasing number of lymphocytes in peripheral blood along with reduced lymphocytes in lymphoid organs, hypercoagulability, thrombosis and multiple organ damage, The gut microbiota and immune homeostasis seem to have a back and forth relationship. Also, gut microbiota derived signals are known to tune the immune cells for pro and anti-inflammatory responses thereby affecting the susceptibility to various diseases. Healthy gut microbiome essentially could be pivotal in maintaining an optimal immune system to prevent an array of excessive immune reactions that eventually become detrimental to lungs and vital organ systems. Numerous studies have shown that the patient's nutritional status have a significant effect on an individual's immunity and over all health status and it has been suggested that nutritional deficiencies may predispose to severe forms of COVID-19 infections. Co-existing non-communicable chronic diseases (NCDs) in COVID-19 patients have been found to delay patients recovery and worsen their prognosis, the reason may be due to aggravated inflammatory pathology found in NCDs exacerbating COVID-19 infection. The aim of the study is to evaluate the role dietary habits among COVID-19 Egyptian patients and whether type of diet (Mediterranean or Western) will affect disease outcomes

NCT ID: NCT04446403 Recruiting - Postoperative Pain Clinical Trials

Circumflex Nerve Blocks Versus Posterior Cord Nerve Blocks in Shoulder Arthroscopy

Start date: June 25, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Shoulder arthroscopy is associated with severe postoperative pain. Traditionally, the interscalene approach to the brachial plexus has been employed to manage postoperative pain following shoulder surgery.To provide more complete shoulder joint analgesia, suprascabular nerve block (SSNB) was combined with block of the circumflex nerve which comes from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus that usually gives also upper subscapular, thoracodorsal, lower subscapular and radial nerves.

NCT ID: NCT04445311 Recruiting - COVID Clinical Trials

Ivermectin in Treatment of COVID-19

Start date: May 31, 2020
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

confirmed cases with COVID-19 will receive ivermectin as a therapeutic option as well as standard of care treatment and will be compared to those that will receive only standard of care ttt

NCT ID: NCT04444999 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

Carbon Dioxide Guided Angiography in Endovascular Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair

Start date: November 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has lower short-term morbidity and mortality than open surgery. Intra-arterial contrast agents are an important component of successful EVAR as the tool of choice for preoperative evaluation of aortic aneurysm morphology as well as precise sizing and intraoperative visualization of the ostia of the renal and hypogastric arteries for graft replacement. Although iodinated contrast (IC) is overwhelmingly the most common contrast agent, the perioperative use of IC agents is not recommended in patients with renal dysfunction or allergies to IC The aim of this study was to evaluate feasibility, efficacy and safety of carbon dioxide (CO2) digital subtraction angiography (DSA) to guide endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) in a cohort of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm

NCT ID: NCT04443712 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID19)

Screening for Patients Admitted to Ain-Shams University Hospitals for SARS-COV-2 (COVID19)

Start date: May 29, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The objective of this study is to screen the patients seeking hospitalization in Ain Shams university hospitals and identify a cost effective tool for continuing screening the patients all through the epidemic period

NCT ID: NCT04443634 Recruiting - Postoperative Pain Clinical Trials

Adductor Canal Block (ACB) Versus ACB /Saphenous Block in Patients Undergoing Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair

Start date: June 25, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Knee surgeries are associated with severe postoperative pain. Blocking the femoral nerve (or saphenous nerve) in the adductor canal is increasingly used for knee analgesia. It carries potential benefits that encourage anesthesiologists to do it. It has a motor sparing property. Injection of local anesthetics in this lengthy canal that contains a variable amount of connective or fibrous tissue might lead to a patchy distribution of local anesthetics. Thus, the possibility of incomplete block of the saphenous nerve (most important nerve in knee innervations) cannot be excluded.

NCT ID: NCT04442763 Recruiting - Implant Stability Clinical Trials

The Effect of Osseodensification on Implant Stability in Posterior Maxilla

Start date: May 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Implants will be placed in posterior maxilla using two drilling methods; the osseodensification technique and standard drilling protocols. Implant stability will be measured right after implant placement and after 3 months. crestal bone level will be measured after implant placement and after 3 and 9 months.

NCT ID: NCT04442750 Recruiting - Postoperative Pain Clinical Trials

Different Concentrations of Bupivacaine in Erector Spinae Plane Block in Hip Surgeries

Start date: June 22, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The prevalence of hip replacement surgery is increasing nowadays. Patients are usually older age and suffer from comorbidities may be an anesthetic and analgesic challenge. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a newly described technique that is has been demonstrated in previous studies for chronic and acute pain treatment. The exact volume and concentration of local anesthetic (LA) to be used in ESPB is not well established.
