Filter by:The purpose of this study assess the efficacy and safety of anti-SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma in hospitalized patients with acute respiratory symptoms up to 14 days after the onset of initial symptoms.
The reason for this study is to see if the study drug baricitinib is effective in hospitalized participants with COVID-19.
The purpose of this trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of continuous intravenous administration of low dose iloprost versus placebo for 72-hours, in 80 patients with COVID-19 suffering from respiratory failure. The study hypothesis is that iloprost may be beneficial as an endothelial rescue treatment as it is anticipated to deactivate the endothelium and restore vascular integrity in COVID-19 patients suffering from respiratory failure caused by endothelial breakdown, ultimately improving survival. Given that the pulmonary system, apart from the brain, is the most highly vascularized vital organ in the body, extensive endothelial damage is a central feature of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) with respiratory failure being the rationale for the current study COMBAT-COVID-19.
This study aims primarily 1. to assess the frequency, nature and outcome of liver disease caused or associated with COVD-19 Furthermore, the study also aims 2. to assess the impact of COVID-19 on patients with chronic liver disease or after liver transplantation (frequency of infections, course of disease, outcome) 3. to assess, whether quarantine measures impact on the rate of decompensation of liver cirrhosis 4. to assess whether the intake of antiviral drugs protects against SARS-CoV-2 infection or COVID disease.
The study objectives are to descript clinical, biological and echocardiographic features of an acute myocarditis in children in the context of COVID-19 and to identify the underlying mechanism : direct viral damage and/or inadequate host response risk.
This study aims to identify the preference of the class modalities (classroom or online) in undergraduate and graduate students. Additionally, to explore if the presence of any mental state alterations such as depression or anxiety due to the COVID-19 pandemic can alter their perception of academic performance.
Multicentric case-control study that is aims at: - evaluating the prevalence of pulmonary embolism among a large population of consecutive patients admitted for COVID-19 pneumonia into two large university hospitals in Paris, France: Groupe Hospitalier Paris Saint-Joseph (GHPSJ) and Hôpital Européen Georges Pompidou (HEGP) - and identifying the characteristics associated with pulmonary embolism by using a nested case control study design within the patients who underwent either unenhanced computed tomograpghy (CT) or CT pulmonary angiogram (CTPA) evaluation.
For preventing the overwhelming of ICU beds capacity during COVID-19 pandemic in France, national and regional Health-Care institutions decided to optimize the Intensive Care Unit beds availability by opening new ICU beds in institutions with and without prior ICU. The Present study was design to retrospectively describe the origin of the ICU beds and human resources created during the COVID-19 outbreak in France.
Introduction: The SARS Co-2 contagious rate is high (Ro: 2.0-3.0). The infection is aggressive with high pathogenicity. Global confinement impacts all social and economic fields of human activity. Clinical behavior exceeds the capabilities of public health care. With the initial information on the pandemic, it is estimated that 20% of health personnel in direct contact with patients can acquire the disease, despite preventive self-care. The molecular relationship of COVID-19 with the subject's ACE2 protein encourages the virus to enter the host cell, and initiates replication and the immune response, causing an imbalance generating an immunological storm of cytokines, with serious damage to the host. Objective: It is proposed to supply a combined scheme of two compounds by oropharyngeal spray that captures the virus before entering the target cell and orally administer immunomodulatory compounds that regulate the inflammatory response released by the virus, in order to improve the antiviral response. Methodology: A controlled, parallel design, triple-blind, phase II clinical trial will be conducted with two study groups to compare the active compounds (oropharyngeal spray and emulsion) with placebo. Discussion: With the application of the combined scheme of two compounds, a 75% reduction in infection is expected for workers in direct contact with COVID patients.
Facing the challenge of finding an efficient treatment for COVID-19, the viral pneumonia caused by the Coronavirus SARS-Cov-2, this study intended to test if Chloroquine or Hydroxychloroquine, two drugs with strong in-vitro antiviral role proven by numerous studies and with a well defined safety profile established, for efficacy in treating COVID-19 and improving an ordinal primary outcome composed by a 9-levels scale, which was recomended by the World Health Organization.
