Filter by:Background: COVID-19 is a new disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 that was identified in 2019. Some people who get sick with COVID-19 become ill requiring hospitalization. There are some medicines that may help with recovery. Researchers want to see if a drug called fostamatinib may help people who are hospitalized with COVID-19. Objective: To learn if fostamatinib is safe in patients who are hospitalized with COVID-19 and gain earlier insight into whether it improves outcomes. Eligibility: Adults age 18 and older who are hospitalized with COVID-19. Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam, including vital signs and weight. They will have a blood test and chest x-ray. They will have a COVID-19 test as a swab of either the back of the throat or the back of the nose. They will take a pregnancy test if needed. Participants will be randomly assigned, to take either fostamatinib pills or a placebo twice daily for up to 14 days in addition to standard of care for COVID-19. If they can swallow, they will take the pills by mouth with water. If they cannot swallow or are on mechanical ventilation, the pills will be crushed, mixed with water, and given through a tube placed through the nostril, or placed in the mouth, down the esophagus, and into the stomach. Blood samples will be taken daily. Participants will return to the Clinical Center for safety follow-up visits. At these visits, they will have a physical exam and blood tests. If they cannot visit the Clinical Center, they will be contacted by phone or have a telehealth visit. Participation will last for about two months
REMPAR EHPAD study addresses environmental and managerial factors associated with an outbreak of COVID 19 in French Long Term Care Institutions in the spring of 2020. The survey used a mixed methodology, combining qualitative and quantitative approaches, with a questionnaire send to all identified institutions (n=501) and qualitative interviews with facility directors (n=21).
The investigators hypothesize that detection of SARS-CoV2 on saliva samples will increase the performance of the screening program compared to the reference strategy (RT-PCR on a nasopharyngeal swab).
The purpose of this study is to investigate if Quercetin Phytosome is beneficial for the treatment of COVID-19.
Evaluating the efficacy of Tocilizumab in hospitalized patients in the inflammatory phase of COVID-19. Randomization 2:1 (TCZ:standard of care).
Coronavirus Disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic has become a global health problem in a short time due to high infection rate and increasing mortality. Since it is not possible to perform thorax computed tomography (CT) and transfer of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia who are followed up in intensive care, diagnosis and follow-up by lung ultrasound (LUS) is a great advantage nowadays.The investigators aimed to evaluate the correlation between thoracic CT score and LUS score and to determine its relationship with mortality. Patients who were admitted to intensive care with the diagnosis of COVID-19 pneumonia, who had an initial thorax CT examination and who underwent LUS during admission to the intensive care unit were included in the study. The demographic characteristics, clinical parameters, prognosis, thorax CT and LUS scores of the patients were recorded prospectively. The characteristics of the survived patients and the patients who died were compared.
In the SARS-CoV2 pandemic, imaging studies proved its diagnostic utility to determine the severity of lung involvement. Computed tomography (CT) is a state-of-the-art study proven to be a highly sensitive diagnostic test complemented by RT-PCR testing to determine the disease and the degree of severity. In March 2020, the Dutch Society of Radiology developed a standardized assessment scheme for COVID-19 lung disease, called CO-RADS. This system proposes a level of suspicion of pulmonary involvement of COVID-19, based on the simple chest tomography findings. The level of suspicion ranges from very low (CO-RADS 1) to very high (CO-RADS 5), with two additional categories involving a technically deficient study (CO-RADS 0) and a positive RT-PCR test for SARS -CoV-2 known before tomography (CO-RADS 6). For its part, acute respiratory damage secondary to SARS-COV2 pneumonia causes acute respiratory distress syndrome, which warrants immediate medical attention. During the evaluation and triage of patients with suspected or confirmed SARS-COV2 infection, it is a challenge for health personnel given that the severity and clinical presentation is highly variable. The patient's risk stratification is carried out using previously established and validated risk scales and is a fundamental tool for making clinical decisions. Some of the risk indices and scales have been developed and used in the pandemic epicenters, such as China and Europe. Useful for the clinician is the national early warning scale (NEWS 2), severe disease risk assessment score (COVID-GRAM), the rapid severity index for COVID-19 (qCSI), evaluation score of Modified sequential organ failure (mSOFA), the sepsis-induced coagulopathy score (SIC), the ROX index as a predictor of success to the high-flow nasal cannula. The evaluation of the risk of thrombotic complications such as the Padua risk, of cardiac complications such as QT segment prolongation, through the Tisdale risk score. Risk stratification is essential in the current COVID-19 pandemic situation; upon admission, the clinician will discern if the patient requires in-hospital medical treatment, the risk of severe disease, and progression to assisted mechanical ventilation. This work aims to establish whether the severity of the findings identified by cardiac tomography upon admission and the risk established by the different established prognostic indices.
The objectives of the trial are to evaluate the efficacy and safety of trimodulin as add-on therapy to standard of care (SoC) compared to placebo treatment in adult hospitalized subjects with severe COVID-19. Additionally, pharmacodynamic (PD) and pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of trimodulin will be evaluated in all subjects.
This is a Phase 1 Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel Group, Placebo-Controlled Study to Assess the Safety of Ascending Doses of UNI911 INHALATION in Healthy Volunteers in Preparation for Evaluation in Adults with COVID-19
Objective: Analyze health care workers' perception of patient safety during the COVID 19 pandemic. Methodology: Analytical cross-sectional observational study, with a quantitative focus on healthcare workers who are working on-site during the pandemic in the services of healthcare institutions that agree to participate in the countries where the study will be conducted, by applying a survey of patient safety perceptions in healthcare workers in times of pandemic. Analysis of the data will employ descriptive and inferential statistical techniques to meet the objectives of the study using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows version 25.0 software. Expected results: The study seeks to generate evidence for the perception of patient safety in times of pandemic, for which it will generate the submission of an article with the results obtained to an indexed journal and presentation at a scientific event.
