Filter by:This is a randomized, open-label, parallel-arm study to investigate the efficacy and safety of pamrevlumab in patients with documented SARS-CoV-2 infection. The study consists of screening, a treatment period, and a follow-up period. The study will enroll patients who have been hospitalized and who are not currently on invasive mechanical ventilation. The treatment period is open ended, and patients will be randomized to treatment with pamrevlumab or standard of care in a 1:1 ratio according to a pre-generated randomization list. Pamrevlumab dosing, 30 mg/kg IV, will be administered at day 1, day 7 and day 14. Based on Investigator's decision, treatment may be continued every 3 weeks after day 14, up to 11 weeks. A follow-up by visit or phone call will be performed 8 and 12 weeks after the end of the last dose of treatment. The treatment period for an individual patient will not exceed 11 weeks.
This study aims to compare the injuries that occurred in the football players after the isolation and lack of training caused by New Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), with the previous season, based on the example of a professional football team in Turkey.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety, pharmacokinetics (pharmacokinetics helps us understand how the drug is changed and eliminated from your body after you take it), and efficacy (how well a study treatment works in the study) of the study medicine (called nirmatrelvir/ritonavir) for potential treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The study medicine will be given to patients under 18 years of age with COVID-19 that are not hospitalized but are at risk for severe disease.
Ingestion of foreign bodies (FB) is one of the most observed domestic accidents and a frequent reason for consultation in pediatric emergency departments (PED). In the United States, nearly 100,000 ingestions of FB have been recorded by the National Poison Data System (NPDS), which represented the 4th cause of intoxication in 2015. Ingestion of FB involves very different mechanisms in children and adult patients. Unlike adults, 98% of FB ingestions in children are accidental and involve common objects found at home environment. Ingested FBs are of many types and vary depending on the object composition of the child's environment and supervision. The lockdown for COVID-19 pandemic highly modified children environment and parent supervision. Children remained at home and parents lived at home for teleworking. In this study, the modifications of children environment that could affect epidemiology of FB ingestion will be evaluated. This is a retrospective study with a sample of around > 100 children of Louis Mourier hospital from January 1 to December 31, 2019 and from March 1 to May 31, 2020. The total duration of the study is planned for 10 months. Primary outcomes: • To determine the role of COVID-19 pandemic linked containment on the prevalence of FB ingestions in children. Secondary outcomes: - Describe the epidemiological-clinical, radiological, therapeutic and evolutionary characteristics of the FB consultant's ingestions in the emergency department - Determine the frequency of endoscopy or surgery - Determine the factors favoring the use of endoscopic extraction From March 16 to May 10, 2020.
Old patients hospitalized in Acute Geriatric Units are characterize by advanced age, frailty, high number of comorbidities, cognitive impairment and loss of functional autonomy. Although, intra-hospital mortality in geriatric population (out of COVID) is low (6%) the long-term prognosis is often worse (30 to 60% of loss of autonomy and 30% of one-year mortality among hospital survivors). For geriatric patients with COVID19, intra-hospital mortality is higher than in younger Covid patients (1), but also higher than in geriatric patients outside the Covid context (30 vs 6% (2, 3)). Our hypothesis is that geriatric patients surviving hospitalization for COVID-19 have a worse vital and functional prognosis at 12 months than geriatric patients surviving hospitalization for another medical reason.
Mental health consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic may be vast and may potentially overwhelm the mental health system in a long-lasting manner. Evaluating the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health in vulnerable groups such as children and adolescents has become an immediate priority. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on use of mental health resources namely 1) prescriptions of psychotropic medications and 2) mental health-related outpatient visits, hospitalizations and emergency department visits in children and adolescents in France. Secondary aim is to evaluate the impact of the pandemic on episodes of fatal and non-fatal self-harm episodes in the same population. This will be a population-based cohort study using data from healthcare claims, administrative medical and outpatient drug dispensation databases in France between January 1, 2016 and June 1, 2021. Findings will inform on the risk of upcoming outbreaks of mental disorders that can result in significant morbidity and mortality and guide timely targeted actions to improve mental health outcomes and wellbeing in the youngest.
In this study, the investigators shall evaluate the use unmanned air vehicles (medical drones) to deliver ART to adult patients eligible/enrolled in community DSD models in Bufumira Islands, Kalangala district. The geography of the islands is ideal for this project because of the flat landscape and water coverage. The investigators hypothesize that the use of drones would be acceptable to patients and stakeholders, reduce facility drug stock outs, increase retention in care by 10% in intervention (at 12 months) compared to the control health centres and be cost neutral (to the patients and health sector perspectives). The investigators will also undertake evaluation of an efficient sample delivery system using medical drones especially for expansive rural areas like Moyo and Adjumani.
Demographic, Clinical and laboratory data as well as outcome of total 202 COVID-19 patients who were Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) positive and admitted in Fatima memorial Hospital, Lahore, Pakistan, was collected during first and other waves. Data of First wave is from May 2020 to July 2020, second wave from early November to Mid December 2020 and third wave from Mid march to June 2021. Investigator analyzed the data on basis of Systemic immune inflammatory index (SII) as well hematological parameters of First Wave were compared to other waves of COVID-19.
To determine vaccine acceptance and hesitancy attitudes toward coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines in Egyptian pregnant women.
Purpose: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of nursing interventions made with a mobile health application (COVOS) developed based on the Omaha System on the physical, psychosocial and cognitive symptoms and quality of life of patients diagnosed with COVID-19, and continuing treatment at home. Design: This is a single center, 1:1 randomized, single blind, parallel, active comparator trial. Method: Standard Protocol Items: Recommendations for Interventional Trials (SPIRIT) Statement 2013 checklist used in study. The CONSORT (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials) flowchart is used in this protocol. This study will carried out in a family health center, located within the boundaries of İzmit District of Kocaeli province. The patients in the experimental group will be followed up with the COVOS app and nursing interventions (videos, information messages) to manage their symptoms will be directed with the COVOS app. The patients in the control group will not receive any intervention, the standard follow-up and health care provided by the family health center of the patients will continue. Hypothesis: In patients diagnosed with COVID-19 followed at home with COVOS, symptom management and quality of life will be better in 1st, 2nd and 3rd months compared to the control group.
