Filter by:More and more patients are undergoing elective surgery after SARS-CoV-2 infection, and little is known about the residual pulmonary changes in these patients after infection and postoperative pulmonary complications. So, we propose an observational study comparing postCOVID-19 patients with normal population (control group) undergoing surgery.
The objective of this work was to investigate the effect of Ligilactobacillus salivarius MP101 on the functional (Barthel index), cognitive (GDS/FAST) and nutritional (MNA) status, and on the nasal and fecal inflammatory profiles of elderly living in a nursing home highly affected by COVID-19.
This study aim to prospectively evaluate the neuropsychiatric symptoms of patients infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus by a standardized neuropsychiatric examination : the global CASE scale (Clinical Assessment Scale in Autoimmune Encephalitis), and the prevalence of disturbances of consciousness, focal neurological deficit, cognitive impairment, headache, anosmia, sleep disturbances, impaired autonomic nervous system and peritraumatic stress.
In this trial, patients that are severely affected by the disease COVID-19 will either receive infliximab, an anti-inflammatory drug, or standard therapy. Infliximab is a drug that inhibits inflammation by blocking a molecule called TNFα. The patients receive the drug via an infusion into a vein. The primary goal of this trial is to see whether the drug infliximab affects how many people died from COVID-19 after 28 days by comparing patients receiving the drug in addition to standard therapy with patients only receiving standard therapy. Furthermore, this trial will look at whether the drug is safe to use in these patients, whether it has an effect on the inflammation and whether it can affect how ill patients are after surviving the disease. The trial is conducted in more than one hospital. As COVID-19 is responsible for a global pandemic, positive results of this trial could affect patients, healthcare and economic systems worldwide.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy of Nanocovax vaccine in volunteer subjects 18 years of age and older.
The United States is battling dual pandemics: healthcare provider (HCP) exhaustion and COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic death toll has surpassed 595,000 and continues to climb as the worldwide outbreak continues. Moreover, we have yet to understand the health impacts of "long-COVID". As evidenced by the national burnout epidemic in HCPs, persistent workplace stress not only impacts personal provider wellbeing, but also influences effective practice and patient outcomes. To address this need, we propose a 4-year, multi-site, four-arm parallel-group randomized clinical trial (RCT) comparing 2 non-pharmacological interventions: Transcendental Meditation (TM) and Experience Resolution Methodology (ERM) to Treatment as Usual (TAU). Participation in this study lasts up to 24 months for enrolled participants and is considered minimal risks.
This is a multicenter study, which is aimed to investigate the efficacy of the Ivermectin drug in high risk COVID-19 patients. This study will compare Ivermectin treatment efficacy with standard of care alone. Target cohort is mild to moderate symptomatic Covid-19 (Stage 2-3), high risk patients aged 50 years and above with comorbidity, who presented to hospitals within first 7 days of illness.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, superiority phase IIa trial to assess the safety and efficacy of dupilumab use in hospitalized patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 infection. Subsequently, we conducted a 1 year follow up study to investigate the occurrence of Post COVID conditions (PCC) in our study population through assessment of pulmonary function, symptoms, neurocognition and immune biomarkers to observe for any treatment group differences.
The sequelae that occur in post-COVID-19 patients are multiple and, at a therapeutic level, these represent a new challenge within the general context of the pandemic that the world is suffering. The virus has managed to end thousands of lives today and many other cases are being charged as directly responsible for a multiplicity of multi-system damages that need to be diagnosed and treated. Among the most relevant, are those that can affect to neurological, respiratory and musculoskeletal levels in patients without previous pahologies, and in patients at risk who already had a pathology prior to infection. On the other hand, signs and symptoms have been observed characteristic in the organ systems described above in post-contagion patients, directly associated with sequelae SARV-CoV2. The radio frequency (RF) of electromagnetic waves represents a technology of proven efficacy and safety in multiple fields of both human and veterinary medicine. These include neurological and pneumological pathologies, and very especially those that affect the locomotor system. In therapeutics there are different RF modalities depending on the modality, polarity, type of signal and frequency, which in turn translate into different therapeutic profiles, clinical indications, efficacy and safety. Among the RF technologies most used today and that have a greater scientific background, is the one known as Resistive Capacitive Monopolar Radio Frequency at 448 kHz (INDIBA®) (RFMCR). This study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of RFMCR in the treatment of neurological, respiratory and musculoskeletal sequelae in patients presenting this type of pathologies that appear after contagion by COVID-19. Through this non-invasive technique, the investigators want to show that RF can help the physical rehabilitation of these patients through metabolic stimulation, increased vascularization and oxygenation of directly affected tissues, effects of deep hyperthermia generated by the interaction of the current with the treated biological substrate, as well as the activation of tissue regeneration, the result of subthermal action. It is thus intended to improve signs such as lung capacity, dyspnea, neuropathies and global muscle capacity, which are essential for the recovery of the post-COVID-19 patients. The hypothesis of this study is that current post-COVID-19 treatments can be significantly improved in order to prevent complications and ensure the patients' well-being.
Coverage Africa is a nested study in the large Anticov platform trial that aims to generate data on new early treatment strategies for mild/moderate COVID-19 patients in resource-limited-settings to reduce the number progressing to severe forms requiring hospitalization, thereby relieving the burden on health care systems and contributing to "flattening the curve" in contexts where none pharmaceutical intervention such as quarantine are difficult to implement in large urban settings. Treating early when the virus is still present might also limit transmission. Coverage Africa will be conducted in Guinea and Burkina Faso. The main objective is to conduct an open-label, multicenter, randomized, adaptive platform trial to test the safety and efficacy of several marketed products, including antiviral therapies versus control in mild/moderate of coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) in resource-limited-settings. The study aims to recruit 600 patients in both countries, one site in Guinea and two sites in Burkina Faso. The current assessed treatments are now the association of Fluoxétine/Budésonide compared with a control arm: paracetamol. The adaptive design trial will allow for the removal of drugs, or the addition of new study arms when new data becomes available. Data on the primary efficacy parameters and safety will be integrated with the primary endpoint based on an oxygen saturation percentage (SpO2) ≤ 93% or death within 14 days after randomization to treatment, including death for any reason. Study will run until August 2022. However, with the proposed adaptive design, the study could also be interrupted for success earlier than planned with the identification of a treatment that significantly reduces hospitalization rate as evidence by results from the primary endpoint.
