Filter by:Since the beginning of the SARS CoV 2 pandemia, the SARS CoV 2 was frequently compared with the seasonal influenza virus. However, few studies compared patients presenting acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) induced by these viruses, with results being discordant. Our study means to compare mortality and morbidity of patients hospitalized in an intensive care unit (ICU) with ARDS induced by SARS CoV-2 and seasonal influenza.
Coronavirus disease pandemic has been started in late 2019. Since this date, the number of cases has been increased reaching 32.7 million cases worldwide in 27 September, 2020. . Herd immunity is achieved when enough people become immune to a virus to stop its spread. Around 70% to 90% of a population needs to be immune to protect the uninfected. In A Spanish study of more than 30,000 people estimates that around just 5% of the Spanish population has developed antibodies
A digital tool, called ReferID has been developed to facilitate the review of asthma patients. It aims to assist in the identification of patients with uncontrolled and/or severe asthma and to ensure a timely referral to secondary care where appropriate. To validate the tool, patients will be randomised to have a review with a healthcare professional using tool to facilitate the review or to continue receiving usual care. Outcome measures including exacerbation frequency and level of asthma control will be assessed at 12 months.
More than six million French were affected by SARS-COV2 epidemic. About 20% of infected peoples were hospitalized, and about 5% were admitted to the intensive care units (ICU) for severe SARS-COV2 acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) management. A spectrum of neuropsychiatric sequelae, specific for the ICU exposure, was already described, including post-intensive care syndrome and persistent pain. A growing body of evidence suggests the impact of SARS-COV2 exposure on the occurrence of neurological disorders and chronic pain syndrome development in COVID-19 patients. Taking together, one can expect a large number of patients discharged from ICU after severe COVID-19 with high prevalence of persistent pain and psychological disorders. To date, no study has evaluated neither the incidence of persistant pains in ICU COVID-19 survivors, nor pain phenotypes. The knowledge of such data is crucial in order to anticipate the management of such patients by specialized pain team, and to quantify the possible incurred burden of care. Our study aims to evaluate the incidence of pain, pain localization and severity, associated pain-related psychological disorders, and to perform quantitative sensory testing in severe COVID-19 patients, admitted to the ICU for more than 48 hours and successfully discharged home during the first French pandemic wave.
The innovative drug XC221 100 mg tablet is designed for the treatment of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2 infection). A multicenter, adaptive, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III clinical study is aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of XC221 100 mg tablet, in mild COVID-19 patients during a 14-days treatment. The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the efficacy of XC221 100 mg tablet (200 mg daily dose) in achieving clinical improvement of mild COVID-19 symptoms. The secondary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety of XC221 100 mg tablet (200 mg daily dose) in mild COVID-19 patients.
This study uses a new breathing device called 'N-Tidal C' handset which measures breathing patterns. Investigators have found that people with cardiac and respiratory illnesses breathe out a gas, called carbon dioxide (CO2), in a different way to healthy people. The pattern of breathed out CO2 (the waveform) varies according to the underlying health of the user's lungs. Monitoring these changes may help doctors to more accurately diagnose and monitor the most common and serious respiratory conditions.
SCALE-UP Utah is a community-academic partnership to address COVID-19 among Utah community health centers. The long-term objective of the project is to increase the reach, acceptance, uptake, and long-term sustainability of COVID-19 screening and testing among Utah's Community Health Center patient population. The study will compare two practical, feasible, scalable interventions to increase COVID-19 testing uptake in Utah Community Health Centers: 1. Text Messaging (TM): population health management (PHM) intervention that analyzes EHR data to automatically identify patients with high risk for either infection or severe disease, reaches and screens those patients, and addresses testing logistics using bi-directional text messaging. 2. Patient Navigation (PN): PHM intervention to increase testing uptake among eligible patients (identified via TM) using patient navigation (e.g., motivating patients, addressing logistics and barriers). The project will employ a rapid cycle research approach in which interventions are tested on a small scale, using short time frames (e.g., <1 month) and cyclical evaluation cycles. The process will entail implementing interventions in a small number of clinics/patients, evaluating the results, and either adapting the intervention based on results (and retesting), or disseminating the results to other clinics/patients. A critical aspect of these rapid-research cycles is that change can be quickly tested on a small scale, and then disseminated to other clinics/patients. Moreover, we are able to update and adapt the interventions based on changes in guidelines, testing, procedures, etc. throughout the duration of the project. The specific aims are to: 1. Implement and evaluate PHM interventions for increasing the uptake of COVID-19 testing among CHC patients across Utah. Our primary outcome, Uptake-Eligible, is defined as the proportion of patients who are tested for COVID-19 out of the patients who meet screening criteria for COVID-19 testing. Our study hypothesis is that patients in the TM+PN cohort will have higher rates of uptake-eligible than those in the TM cohort. 2. Examine implementation effectiveness outcomes, as well as characteristics of both clinics and patients that may influence intervention effects and implementation outcomes.
SCALE-UP Utah is a community-academic partnership to address COVID-19 among Utah community health centers. The long-term objective of the project is to increase the reach, acceptance, and uptake of COVID-19 vaccines among Utah's Community Health Center patient population. The study will compare two practical, feasible, scalable interventions to increase COVID-19 vaccine uptake in Utah Community Health Centers: 1. Text Messaging (TM): population health management (PHM) intervention that analyzes EHR data to automatically identify patients eligible for COVID-19 vaccination and uses bi-directional text messaging to help connect patients to a vaccination site; 2. Patient Navigation (PN): PHM intervention to increase vaccination uptake among eligible patients (identified via TM) using patient navigation (e.g., motivating patients, addressing logistics and barriers). The project will employ a rapid cycle research approach in which interventions are tested on a small scale, using short time frames (e.g., <1 month) and cyclical evaluation cycles. The process will entail implementing interventions in a small number of clinics/patients, evaluating the results, and either adapting the intervention based on results (and retesting), or disseminating the results to other clinics/patients. A critical aspect of these rapid-research cycles is that change can be quickly tested on a small scale, and then disseminated to other clinics/patients. Moreover, we are able to update and adapt the interventions based on changes vaccine regulations, availability, and protocols. The specific aims are to: 1. Implement and evaluate PHM interventions for increasing the uptake of COVID-19 vaccinations among CHC patients across Utah. Our primary outcome, Uptake-Eligible, is defined as the proportion of patients who receive a COVID-19 vaccination out of those who meet eligibility criteria for vaccination. Our study hypothesis is that patients in the TM+PN cohort will have higher rates of uptake-eligible than those in the TM cohort. 2. Examine implementation effectiveness outcomes, as well as characteristics of both clinics and patients that may influence intervention effects and implementation outcomes.
This project is a 2-year study to investigate vaccine hesitancy and vaccine completion among vulnerable communities in the Southeastern Louisiana region. This study will be used to track COVID-19 vaccine completion among patients who seek testing, either as in-person or purchasing at home COVID testing, from pharmacies, urgent cares and clinics using a rapid vaccine education model delivered at the point of care.
The purpose of the study is to assess if the study medication (molnupiravir, MK-4482) will prevent symptomatic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in adults who live with someone with confirmed COVID-19 infection. This is a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study; half of the study participants will receive molnupiravir twice daily by mouth and the other half will receive a placebo. The primary objectives of the study are to determine if molnupiravir prevents symptomatic COVID-19 disease and to evaluate its safety and tolerability. All participants who develop COVID-19 during the study are still eligible for any COVID-19 treatment recommended by their doctor.
