Filter by:The data were retrospectively collected during the first and the second wave of epidemic in COVID-19 patients with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2, at the moment of intensive care unit admission and during the in intensive care unit staying.
Post-marketing study, Chotor study of COMIRNATY vaccenees followed for 11months. Serious adverse events and COVID-19 observed during the follow-up period will be collected, and the long-term safety of this product will be assessed.
This observational clinical study aims to evaluate the presence of symptoms of COVID-19 infection in patients who participated in K031-120 or K032-120 ("long hauler").
Uptake of vaccination against COVID-19 is key to controlling the pandemic. However, a significant proportion of people report that they do not intend to have a vaccine, often because of concerns they have about its side effects or safety. It is important to identify ways to communicate information about the vaccines that facilitate informed decisions rather than promoting uptake through coercion. This study will assess whether theory-based messages can change beliefs and increase intentions to receive a COVID-19 vaccine in Scotland. The messages will be based on publicly available information about the need for COVID-19 vaccination and the safety of the vaccines, and structured to address specific types of treatment beliefs. Participants will be randomised to either a group shown the messages or a control group shown general information messages about the COVID-19 virus and vaccination programme. By comparing the two groups we aim to test what impact the theory-based messages have on intentions and beliefs about COVID-19 vaccination.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemics has put an overwhelming pressure on the healthcare systems of many European countries. Such a situation has potentially led to delayed and impaired access to appropriate treatment for patients affected by other severe, non-COVID-19-related conditions, including cardiovascular diseases. This resulted in a reported lower admission, but higher mortality rate for AMI patients. Such a situation might be explained by many factors, including unavailability of early reperfusion therapy and late hospital presentation of AMI patients due to a general anxiety related to the COVID-19 contagious risk of the hospital environment. As a matter of fact, during this year of pandemics, several case reports suggested a new, significant surge of post-AMI mechanical complications, sometimes describing patients admitted in too severe conditions to consider surgical repair a viable option, and therefore inevitably undergone an unfavorable outcome. Therefore, we decided to involve the large network of European centers already participating to the "Caution Study 1", in order to study the impact of COVID-19 pandemics on the outcomes, incidence and treatments of post-AMI mechanical complications.
Grand Hôpital de Charleroi (GHdC) had to organize the vaccination of its staff in December 2021 against SARS-CoV-2.On the sidelines of this vaccination campaign, the management committee agreed to document the knowledge of the SARS-CoV-2 serology of all the staff of the establishment before this vaccination campaign, as well as a few weeks after vaccination. In November 2021, the Belgian government decided to offer a third dose of vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 virus. The GHdC managment committee has agreed to continue monitoring SARS-CoV-2 serology for members who receive their third dose of vaccine.
Although several therapeutic agents have been suggested for the treatment of the disease caused by the Coronavirus of the year 2019 (COVID-19), no antiviral has yet demonstrated consistent efficacy. This is an observational study comparing Tenofovir-DF (disoproxil fumarate) (TDF) with Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) in the treatment of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 with evidence of pulmonary compromise and with supplemental oxygen required.
Methods 123 patients were enrolled in a randomized controlled trial at Eskenazi Hospital from April 2020 until October 2020. We permitted patients to either use their own mask (due to low resources institutionally) or we provided a surgical/cloth mask (early on relied on donated cloth masks for patients). Patients were randomized to a control (no tape over the mask/nose) or to the intervention (placing tape over the bridge of the nose of the face mask). Patients were evaluated at 30- and 60- minute intervals to assess for proper mask usage.
The purpose of this study is to assess SARS CoV-2 infection, viral shedding, and subsequent potential transmission in individuals immunized with the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine.
The pandemic we live through has put various sectors of the medical system and its tributaries to the test. The accumulation of external and internal stress has been completely correlated with the predisposition to psycho-emotional problems and, in turn, to drug use as an immature response for ego protection. That is why the economic, social, and psychological evaluation can help understand the current situation about drug abuse and how to help patients afflicted by it. The added stress of personal problems, work alterations, daily life in a pandemic, economic and varied responsibilities, and the understanding of the pandemic have predisposed and amplified the use of drugs to reduce emotional distress perceived by individuals. The hypothesis of this study is that the increment of stress and a lack of preparation for the pandemic are associated with increased drug abuse.
