Filter by:Listening to breath sounds with the stethoscope/auscultation is used by pulmonary physicians in conjunction with pulmonary function, signs and symptoms, oxygen saturation and diagnostic testing to admit, follow and discharge patients from hospital. Of these, only auscultation routinely ceases upon discharge from Hospital. Healthcare utilization statistics have shown that for more than a decade, readmission after discharge for an exacerbation of COPD or severe asthma (or chronic heart failure) remains a major problem. The Strados System has been designed to extend the range of lung sound recording both geographically and temporally to improve the standard of care when access to continuous monitoring has been replaced by periodic or no monitoring. The primary purpose of this study is to assess the clinical utility of the Strados System in enabling periodic recording and reviewing of breath sounds in patients with chronic respiratory diseases, either in the ICU, or in less continuously monitored settings, including after inpatient discharge.
The research is a prospective, multicentric (Groupe hospitalier Paris Saint-Joseph, Centre Hospitalier de Versailles André Mignot and Centre Hospitalier Victor Dupouy), non-interventional, prospective study. It aims at measuring eicosanoids at different stages of Covid-19 infection.
To assess the prognostic performance of the RALE score with respect to duration of ventilation, and to describe changes in the RALE score over time.
Background: investigators have seen recently from experience in Western countries with best health care systems that pandemics cannot be managed in hospitals. Investigators have seen ICUs crowded to capacity, healthcare workers being exposed and going to quarantine or dying after exposure to large doses of viral inoculums. Investigators recommend that institutions should register for Clinical trials and consider emergency use of TPE. In Pandemics, time is of essence to avoid mortality by intervening early with available evidence, preferably as part of clinical trial. Scientific rationale: Beyond supportive care, there are currently no proven treatment options for coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and related pneumonia, caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). However, literature review has shown that most common cause of death in severe SARS-COV-2 is Cytokine release syndrome and Hemophygocytic Lymphohistocytosis (HLH). In this context, Investigators seek to treat patients who are sick enough to warrant hospitalization prior to the onset of overwhelming disease including a systemic inflammatory response, sepsis, and/or Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).
The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of the topical corticosteroids nasal spray (mometasone furoate nasal spray) in improving anosmia in patients recovered from COVID-19 infection.
The study is to investigate the antibody response in the blood and saliva of people with a known COVID-19 infection in the canton of Baselland.
Problem: The COVID- 19 pandemic has not only affected our healthcare system, but the impact on the worldwide financial systems and our "normal" way of life is still to be determined. Although the percentage of patients infected with COVID-19 that need hospital care is low, Its high rate of contagiousness makes the total number of patients in need of hospital care cripple any healthcare system, limiting the space available for other patients in need of critical care, who cannot be admitted or even prefer not to attend the hospital in fear of infection. Early investigations report an Increase risk of thromboembolic complications, and a systemic inflammatory response not clearly understood. There is a possible vascular endothelial dysfunction due to chronic comorbidities (Hypertension, diabetes, obesity, chronic kidney disease, lung disease) as a risk factor for a more severe presentation. Justification: Sulodexide is a two-compound drug, each of them with different endothelial action that can be beneficial in COVID-19 patients. Glycosaminoglycans: Can help restore venous and arterial endothelial glycocalyx which can downregulate or limit the response to inflammatory molecules, by maintaining the integrity lost in certain chronic diseases (high blood pressure, diabetes). Heparin compound: It has an antithrombotic effect that could help reduce the incidence of thromboembolic complications, and also add to the anti-inflammatory response due to it anti-thrombin action (similar or a bit less to that of low molecular weight heparin) with less risk of major bleeding. It's a medication that can be used orally with minimal adverse effects and is less expensive than low molecular weight heparin. Hypothesis: We hypothesize that sulodexide instituted early in populations at significant risk and symptomatic patients affected with COVID-19 (shortness of breath, fever, weakness, diarrhoea) and risk factors of diabetes, hypertension, COPD, atherosclerosis, chronic kidney disease, will provide improvement in endothelial integrity, decrease inflammatory responses, and improved clinical outcomes with decreased hospital admission, decrease VTE and arterial complications, morbidity, and mortality. Objective: To use sulodexide in patients that have early onset of COVID-19 symptoms to mitigate the progression of the disease process that can allow them to recover at home, and limit the need of hospital care and a more severe clinical manifestation
The objective of this study is to detect the evidence on the immune response following acute SARS-CoV-2 infections. the study will report the profile of IgG specific antibodies levels to SARS-CoV-2 infection found in recovered coronavirus disease (COVID-19) patients after infection for both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetics of SCTA01(anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody) in Healthy Chinese Subjects.
The aim of the study is to investigate the potential effects of face-to-face supervised tele-rehabilitation to home exercise program on walking speed, handgrip strength, muscle endurance, quality of life, physical activity level and perceived respiratory disability in COVID-19 patients who hospitalized in ICU due to ARDS and discharged from hospital.
