Filter by:The effects of frequency and severity of physical complaints and symptoms on general well-being, sleep and quality of life are known. However, in the COVID-19 process, the disease has very different effects, both physical and psychological, and some symptoms persist even if the disease is overcome; In addition to these, the fact that the measures taken throughout the country prompt individuals to take measures to protect themselves from the disease and make it compulsory under some conditions intertwine many different dimensions of the disease on human health and significantly affect daily life. In this context, our first aim in this study is to compare factors such as musculoskeletal problems, physical activity level, endurance and quality of life in healthcare workers with and without COVID-19. Seconder aim is to examine the relationships between factors such as musculoskeletal problems, physical activity level, endurance and quality of life, and to examine the effect levels of the parameters by performing regression analyzes depending on the result.
This study was carried out in the post-acute period of the telerehabilitation program in individuals with dyspnea who had COVID-19; It will be done to examine the effects on dyspnea, exercise capacity, respiratory functions, activities of daily living, muscle strength, muscle oxygenation, fatigue and quality of life parameters.
The current state of knowledge shows the presence of respiratory sequelae after acute infection with COVID-19 and the importance of these long-term respiratory dysfunctions have to be determined. Aim of our study is describe diaphragmatic amplitude using diaphragm ultrasonography in patients recovering from SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia at 3 and 6 months after the acute episode.
The multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, randomized clinical trial. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Prospekta in the treatment of asthenia in patients after the coronavirus infectious disease (COVID-19).
This is a 48-week, observational study looking to see if the inflammatory process of hypoxemic respiratory failure associated with COVID-19 leads to progressive pulmonary fibrosis. Inpatient, as well as outpatient adults with recent COVID-19 hospitalization will be recruited. Data from hospitalization will be collected and subjects will return to the center for follow-up visits. Subjects will undergo the following procedures: High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) of the chest, Pulmonary Function Tests (PFT), Muscle Strength Measurement, and blood draw for biomolecular data such as biomarkers found in ribonucleic acid (RNA), deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), serum, and plasma. Quality of Life (QoL) measurements will also be collected through the study.
The RESTART/RICOMINCIARE study is a pilot single-center, not controlled prospective, pre-post intervention study aimed at verifying feasibility and safety of a device-supported home rehabilitation for people suffering from mild to moderate disabilities due to respiratory or neurological conditions, related to Covid-19 or frailty condition (i.e. Parkinson Disease).
The primary endpoint of this research is to establish that the alveolar dead space is significantly higher in patients with COVID-19 ARDS, compared to patients with non-COVID-19 ARDS. Secondarily, the investigators want to establish the prognostic value of the alveolar-dead space (measured iteratively) in patients with COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 ARDS, to establish the respective influences of the biological parameters of endothelial damage, of the biological parameters of coagulopathy, of the parameters set on the artificial ventilator on the value of the alveolar dead space; in ARDS patients with COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 ARDS, to establish the prognostic value of the laboratory parameters of endothelial damage and coagulopathy in patients with COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 ARDS.
The main objective is to expand screening for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of the RT-PCR test (Cobas® Roche, Switzerland) and the ELISA Point of Contact Testing (PORTABLE COVID-19 ANTIGEN LAB® Stark, Italy) on buccal swab compared to the reference test, the RT-PCR test (Cobas® Roche, Switzerland) on nasopharyngeal swab. Secondary objectives - To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of oral swab RT-PCR and POCT relative to the quantitative amplification (Ct) values of the NP Swab RT-PCR assay. - Analyze RT-PCR amplification cycle thresholds (Ct) and POCT diagnostic accuracy as a function of the presence and timing of symptoms. - Among symptomatic participants, compare clinical presentations between positive and negative participants on the NP swab RT-PCR test. - The RT-PCR test may be imperfectly sensitive, ranging from 71 to 98%3. Using a Bayesian latent class model, the investigators will assess the true accuracy of POCT as it does not require the assumption that any one test or combination of tests is perfect14,15.
Clinical trials of prevention modalities for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and pneumonia are underway under separate protocol(s) for close contacts (i.e., household contacts, [e.g.,3502]) of infectious (index) individuals (3502-01). Characterizing the index individuals within households will ascertain the risk of exposure for the contact participant. These data will be used to strengthen the precision of efficacy estimates. This ancillary observational study will assess the cofactors for infectiousness among index individuals whose close contacts are enrolled in COVID-19 prevention clinical trials. Additionally, this study will assess post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection in index individuals that are more than two weeks past their initial diagnosis.
The proposed research focuses on evaluating the mobile application, Easing Anxiety Sensitivity for Everyone (EASE), to improve overall public health that concerns risks and mental health status during the COVID-19 pandemic and to minimize the existing health disparities among Black, Latinx, and American Indian (BLAI) individuals during this time. EASE provides COVID-19 symptom monitoring, exposure management skills, and psychoeducation on stress and it's impact on infection and disease susceptibility. This study aims to compare the effect of EASE to an empirical measurement of standard-of-care digital intervention and to identify the effective mechanisms in EASE.
