Filter by:This study aims to use the regenerative and repair abilities of stem cells to fight against the harmful effects of the novel coronavirus Covid-19 and therefore develop a treatment strategy. It is known that fatalities from this virus is largely caused by its damage to lungs and other organs. As the disease progresses, these organs fail and lead to mortality. Our hope is that the stem cell transplantation from healthy donors will repair the damage caused by the virus and result in a healthy recovery.
The study hypothesis is that cyclosporine, added to standard treatment of hospitalized patients with COVID19 infection may improve their prognosis.
The clinical trial aims to study the safety and efficacy of transfusion of COVID-19 convalescent hyperimmune plasma for the treatment of moderate and severe forms of COVID-19 disease in comparison with non-convalescent fresh frozen plasma (standard plasma).
The current Sars-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic has created major changes in how physicians perform routine healthcare for our patients, including elective and non-elective surgical procedures. Beginning on March 16th, 2020 Northwell Health postponed all elective surgeries. As the incidence of COVID-19 cases begins to decrease and hospital volume improves we need to ensure the safety of our patients planning surgical procedures. However, at this time there is a scarcity of data regarding the COVID-19 test conversion rate in surgical patients. Our goal is to determine the COVID-19 test conversion rate in these patients to better guide strategies for restarting surgical care in a large-scale pandemic. Patients will be routinely tested with serology and PCR for COVID-19 24-48 hours prior to their scheduled surgery. Those who provide informed consent will be re-tested 12-16 days after discharge from the hospital to determine any potential nosocomial infection rate. Patients will also answer a few questions during their retest to allow the study team to gauge exposure risk postoperatively after leaving the hospital.
Cross-sectional non-incentivized worldwide web survey. A worldwide survey of 1050 respondents showed that proctologic practice has been seriously affected by the pandemic. Age, gender and level of hospital preparedness predicted the change of status of surgical and outpatient activities. The results of our study may inform the development of strategies to reopen activities while protecting frontline healthcare workers.
Purpose of Study • The purpose of this study to evaluate, the effectiveness of convalescent plasma in combatting the symptoms and effects of the coronavirus disease, COVID-19. Beyond supportive care, there are no proven treatment options for COVID-19.
In this randomized controlled clinical trial, defined cases of COVID-19 with mild, moderate, or severe pneumonia (according to the NIH guideline) were treated with conventional treatment regimens (controls) as well as in combination with oral administration of colchicine plus herbal phenolic monoterpene fractions (intervention arm). After randomization, each group received the mentioned treatments and were evaluated for different variables including mortality, hospitalization duration, intensive care unit (ICU) administration ratios as well as laboratory variables such as leukocytes and lymphocytes count. The follow-up period considered as 2 weeks after discharge. The mentioned variables were assessed as before and after receiving the treatment in each group as well as intergroup analysis for comparing both baseline and final values.
The CTC Registry collects patient-level clinical data on CytoSorb hemoadsorption provided to COVID-19 ICU patients via integration of the CytoSorb device into ECMO, CRRT, or hemoperfusion extracorporeal circuits. The intent of the registry is to gain understanding on how CytoSorb hemoadsorption provides clinical benefit to COVID-19 ICU patients.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of MLS laser therapy as a treatment for pulmonary complications due to COVID-19 infection.
Compare the resting energy expenditure of COVID-19 patients (obese or non-obese) in intensive care unit with mechanical ventilation to a control group of non-COVID-19 intensive care patients.
