Filter by:In 2017, 10.7 million people affiliated to the general health insurance scheme benefited from the "Long-term condition" scheme, i.e. 17% of insured patients. Most of these patients suffer from chronic diseases requiring regular medical and paramedical follow-up. During the first containment period of the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic, the French government's messages were to call the Urgent Medical Assistance Service (15) and not to go directly to the general practitioner (GP), favouring teleconsultations. Other countries have adopted the same strategy. Mortality rates due to SARS-CoV-2 infection were higher in elderly patients and/or those with co-morbidities, particularly heart failure, hypertension, respiratory failure and diabetes. The elderly and patients with chronic cardiometabolic and respiratory diseases should therefore be particularly protected during the epidemic. However, these populations also need close monitoring to avoid acute decompensation of their chronic diseases or loss of autonomy. However, during the first containment, general practitioners and other medical and paramedical ambulatory health professionals perceived a notable decrease in their daily activity, including for their chronic and/or elderly patients who may not have called for a visit, consultation and/or access to telemedicine. "Public Health France" also reported a decrease in consultations with GPs at the beginning of the lockdown, a decrease in the number of emergency room visits and hospitalizations for cardio and neurovascular diseases. The investigators hypothesise that under-attendance of primary care services during the epidemic is associated with excess mortality and morbidity unrelated to COVID-19. The main objective is to assess non-COVID-19 related overmortality during the containment period and 12 months after the start of containment, in a population of elderly and/or chronically ill patients in France. The overmortality will be assessed globally and according to individual and contextual characteristics such as gender, age, place of residence, pre-existing morbidity and socio-economic level.
The eye characteristics of patients with COVID-19 and those without the disease were analyzed, and whether they had the disease or not was judged according to the eye characteristics.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate feasibility and acceptability of an Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) compared with an EMA plus automated text message intervention for stress management in participants with higher-than-average perceived stress conducted in a remote setting. Study details include: Study Duration: 7 months Intervention Duration: 3 weeks
1. Evaluate serum level of NAD,Sirtuin1,ADAM17 andPARP1 in covid19 patients 2. Investigate the correlation between measured biomarkers and each other 3. Investigate the correlation between measured biomarkers and each other and their correlation with covid19 severity and outcome which may help in the therapy and prevention of disease complication(cytokine storm)
Months after seemingly recovering from COVID-19, many patients continue to suffer from major long-term effects. Interestingly, the existence of direct link between the severity of the disease in its acute phase and the severity of the long-lasting symptoms is uncertain. We aim at characterizing the long term outcomes in patients hospitalised for COVID-19 including symptoms, medical history, persistent organ damage and neurological and behavioural sequelae.
There is evidence that some types of probiotics play a role in alleviation of symptoms of acute respiratory tract infections and bursting immune response to respiratory and enteric viruses. Available data serves a rationale for the study exploring a role of nutritional support with probiotics in adult outpatients with COVID-19. Hypothesis of the study is that a proposed mixture of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria facilitate faster recovery from COVID-19 and enhance specific immune response to SARS-CoV-2 antigens.
In January 2021, the incidence of COVID-19-and its mortality started rising for the third time in France. This rise may associate with three emerging variants, namely, V1, V2, and V3, which are the 20I/501Y.V1 ("English"), 20H/501Y.V2 ("South African"), and 20J/501Y.V3 ("Brazilian") variants, respectively. V1 was recently suggested to increase mortality in people in the United Kingdom who tested positive for COVID-19 on community screening. Very little is known about V2 infection, including its outcomes relative to other strains. In early 2021, V2 spread to the Grand-Est region (northeastern France). Here, the investigators aimed to report mortality data of patients admitted in ICU between February and April 2021 in 3 hospitals in Grand-Est: Metz, Thionville and Nancy.
This is a double-blind study designed to investigate the efficacy, safety and PK of a single dose of COVI-DROPS or matched placebo in outpatient adults who have tested positive for COVID-19 and are either asymptomatic or have mild symptoms.
This is a pilot study in 24 subjects where half will be randomized to 10 treatments with hyperbaric oxygen (HBO). It will primarily study pulmonary sequelae with imaging and physiological measurements (low dose chest computer tomography (CT), Ventilation/perfusion with magnetic resonance imaging (VA/Q MRI), cardiopulmonary exercise testing with pulse oximetry (SpO2) and spirometry including diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO). The target patient group will be previously healthy whom have had covid-19 with lingering symptoms past 12 weeks of recovery from the acute phase.
SARS-CoV-2 infection is characterized mainly by moderate/severe pneumonia associated with progressive endothelial damage and coagulopathy. Acute respiratory failure among COVID-19 occurs in 42% of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia, and 61-81% of patients requiring intensive care . Among the suggested treatments for the management of ARDS patients, prone position (PP) can be used as an adjuvant therapy for improving ventilation in these patients, as recommended in the Surviving Sepsis Campaign COVID-19 guidelines. Nevertheless, no data is currently available on application and feasibility of PP in invasively ventilated patients with COVID-19 on their outcomes.
