Filter by:Purpose: To decrease symptom burden, improve cognitive function, improve endurance, and decrease fatigue in subjects with post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) or "long-hauler" COVID using amantadine. If amantadine use is determined to be efficacious in this population, the findings of this study will be used towards a subsequent randomized control trial.
Patients aged 45 to 80 years with a clinical diagnosis of stage III and IV genital prolapse involving the anterior and/or middle compartments and candidates for surgery will be considered. These will be evaluated to observe whether there is improvement in clinical prolapse with the use of the vaginal pessary during the waiting period for surgery
This randomised controlled trial aims to investigate the efficacy of a psychological intervention for long COVID (LC) / post-COVID-19 syndrome (PCS) called Balance Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (Balance ACT). The primary objective of this trial is to investigate whether Balance-ACT improves quality of life over treatment as usual (i.e., self-help leaflet) in people with PCS/LC.
The COVID-19 pandemic has emerged as the most significant public health crisis of the 21st century. As of the end of January 2023, global confirmed cases have exceeded 670 million, with a domestic cumulative total of 10.24 million cases, including occurrences of reinfection. Beyond acute symptoms following infection, patients and society face the challenge of long-term complications associated with COVID-19. Termed 'Post COVID-19 condition' or 'Long COVID' by the World Health Organization (WHO), this encompasses symptoms appearing within three months of the initial infection. Symptoms of Long COVID reveal chronic damage inflicted by the virus on multiple organ systems, including fatigue, cognitive impairment, chest tightness, palpitations, difficulty breathing, and depression. Despite continuous efforts by healthcare professionals to find suitable treatments, no medication has been confirmed to effectively prevent or reduce post-COVID-19 sequelae. These health issues impose significant burdens and disturbances on patients' quality of life, economies, and societies.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the impact of long COVID on people who have multiple (two or more) pre-existing long-term conditions (such as diabetes and asthma). The main question it aims to answer is: • How does long COVID impact the lives of adults living with multiple pre-existing long-term conditions and what are their rehabilitation needs? Participants will be asked to: - Take photos of things they feel represent the impact of long COVID on their day-to-day lives across seven days and, - Take part in an interview to discuss the impact of long COVID.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate an app to improve communication and information flows for persons suffering from Post-COVID-19 syndrome (PCS). The main questions it aims to answer are: - How can custom virtual characters (avatars) help to collect more data for the diagnosis of PCS? - Can conversations with virtual (mobile) characters (avatars) and the presentation of health data help to improve the diagnosis and understanding of PCS? - How should these virtual characters (avatars) be designed for people with PCS and healthcare professionals to be useful in the long term? This concerns appearance, dialog, personality and functions. Participants will be asked to use and test the app and take part in two interviews at the beginning and end of the study.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the prevalence of sarcopenia in older people with post-COVID-19 living in Ratchatewi district, Bangkok and to test the effectiveness of health promotion program for older people with post-COVID-19 Sarcopenia. The main questions it aim to answer are: • How many is the prevalence of sarcopenia in older people with post-COVID-19 living in Ratchatewi district, Bangkok? • Can the health promotion program improve muscle mass and muscle strength in older people with post-COVID-19 Sarcopenia ? Participants will be asked eating protein supplement one scoop /day and exercising 2 times/week for 3 months.
Since the first SARS-CoV-2 cases in 2019, over 660 million COVID-19 cases have been reported globally, including 183 million in the EU. Up to 70% of those infected experience reduced organ function four months or more after a COVID-19 diagnosis, potentially increasing the risk of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). The post-acute phase (PAP) after COVID-19 (four months or more after the acute phase) can lead to impaired function in various organ systems, with a focus on the lungs, cardiovascular system, and kidneys. These three NCDs collectively impose a significant burden on individuals and society. Urgently, we need to understand the connection between COVID-19's PAP and NCDs, identifying robust biomarkers for early detection. This study examines PAP and associated risk factors, investigating the link between PAP and the heightened risk of lung, heart, and kidney complications. Utilizing data from a cohort of COVID-19 patients and a control group with respiratory diseases, the study aims to determine prevalence and risk ratios more precisely. The aim is to contribute to minimizing the risk of NCD development or exacerbation in current and future COVID-19 patients, enhancing our understanding of chronic disease development at the population leve
"Formosa 1-Breath Free (NRICM101) " has been widely known in Taiwan to treat COVID-19. However, there is no phase III pivotal clinical trial of "Formosa 1-Breath Free (NRICM101) " . In order to obtain scientific, standardized, and comparable clinical results, the study will be implemented to evaluate the efficacy of safety of "Formosa 1-Breath Free (NRICM101) ". The objective of the study was used the product which be provided by Tian-I Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the subjects with the symptoms of COVID-19 or Influenza-like after taking "Formosa 1-Breath Free (NRICM101) ". This study is a randomized, double-blind, parallel controlled clinical trial. The study consisted of 3 cycles: screening period, treatment period (5 days) and follow-up period. The treatment of this study is divided into two groups: The test drug is Formosa 1-Breath Free (NRICM101) granule 5g/bag, 3 times a day;The control drug is the placebo (dummy) 5g/bag, 3 times a day. The sample size in the study is at least 150 people who can be evaluated, and the dropout rate of the test is 10-15%. The estimated sample size is around 170 people. After signing the ICF, vital signs (sitting blood pressure, pulse rate, SpO2, respiratory rate and body temperature), physical examination, chest X-ray, and laboratory test will be checked in screening period. Only subjects with clinically acceptable and following the inclusion and exclusion criteria will eligible to enroll in this study. Compliance will be assured by administration of the study drug under the supervision of the investigator or his deputy. Subjects will be free to withdraw at any time without stating any reason. Data will be analyzed from those subjects who complete the entire study; however, the case report forms and the final study report should include reasons for withdrawals and any necessary treatment.
This study is for people who have multiple sclerosis, acute leukemia (in remission), or long-COVID and a Body Mass Index over 27 and may struggle with cognitive issues such as remembering information, concentrating, or making decisions that affect everyday life. By doing this study, researchers hope to learn how liraglutide (Saxenda®), a weight loss drug, affects levels of a certain disease marker in the body called Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF). Participation in this research will last about 21 weeks.
