Filter by:The investigatores propose to evaluate intravenous administration of convalescent plasma (CP) obtained from COVID19 survivors in patients requiring hospitalization for symptomatic "high risk" COVID19 disease as reflected by the presence of elevated hsTPN. Supportive data exist for use of convalescent plasma in the treatment of COVID19 and other overwhelming viral illness. Investigators hypothesize that treatment with COVID19 CP will demonstrate salutary effects on COVID19 disease severity/duration, with the primary objective to reduce mortality and a key secondary objective to reduce the requirement for and/or duration of mechanical ventilation. Finally, as the hospital mortality for patients requiring mechanical ventilation is very high (50 to 80%), these patients will be eligible for COVID19 CP treatment as well, even in the absence of elevated hsTPN. Although considerable overlap of these populations has been observed (elevated hsTPN and requirement for mechanical ventilation) there is not 100% redundancy and it is hopeful that COVID19 CP may provide benefit to these critically ill patients.
COVID-19@Spain is a retrospective cohort study that aims to determine the clinical characteristics of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 in Spain and to identify prognostic factors of mortality and the need for mechanical ventilation
The overarching goal of this project is to confirm or refute the role of passive immunization as a safe and efficacious therapy in preventing the progression from mild to severe/critical COVID-19 illness and to understand the immunologic kinetics of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies after passive immunization.The primary objective is to determine the efficacy and safety of a single dose of convalescent plasma (CP) for preventing the progression from mild to severe COVID-19 illness. The secondary objective is to characterize the immunologic response to CP administration. This study will enroll adults presenting to the emergency department (ED) with mild, symptomatic, laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 illness, who are at high risk for progression to severe/critical illness, but who are clinically stable for outpatient management at randomization.
Elderly, hypertension, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases are risk factors for COVID-19 morbility and mortality. However, the real reason for this is not yet understood. It is well documented that gut microbiota has a critical role in health, particularly in the immune system and therefore, we propose that gut microbiota composition could affect vulnerability and disease outcomes of COVID-19.
The purpose of this research study is to learn about the safety and efficacy of human umbilical cord derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (UC-MSC) for treatment of COVID-19 Patients with Severe Complications of Acute Lung Injury/Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ALI/ARDS).
This research aims to improve the screening for COVID-19 upon admission to the Montpellier University Hospital for an act under general anesthesia or at high risk of transmission of the virus. Indeed, routine nasal swabs present many false negatives (60 to 70%) and many patients with the coronavirus have little or no symptoms. Performing a chest CT scan can reveal early signs very suggestive of viral pneumoniae due to the new coronavirus without additional risk compared to a simple chest X-ray (no injection of contrast medium, low exposure). The objective is to assess the sensitivity of the diagnosis of COVID-19 by carrying out a nasopharyngeal RT-PCR and a low dose thoracic scanography at the hospital admission of patients scheduled to a procedure under general anesthesia or at risk of aerosolization (surgery, endoscopy, procedures involving risk of interventional radiology) in order to limit the risks of transmission to healthcare professionals or other patients and to rationalize the use of protective equipment. This is an observational research without modification of care in the setting of COVID-19 pandemia. All clinical and biological data will be issued from routine care and medical charts. Routine use of CT scan and nasal swabs is an institutional approved strategy. Serologic tests will be performed as soon as available from serum collection collected after routine blood analysis. All data will be anonymously recorded after information and non-opposition of the patient.
The Covid-19 pandemic is a major public health issue. Potential treatments are essential to control the infection. Hydroxychlorquine is currently tested in several clinical trials to evaluate its efficiency.The objective of this study was to evaluate the symptoms related to COVID-19 occuring in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)
The purpose of this study is to collect French medical data for patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) or NeuroMyelitis Optica (NMO) spectrum disorder who are diagnosed or strongly suspected of being infected with Covid19. The objective of this study is to provide scientific information regarding the possible risk factors in these patients, as a large part of them receive immunomodulatory or immunosuppressive treatments. The main objective of this study is thus to determine the epidemiological (eg, age, form of disease, disability) and pharmacological (related to immunomodulatory or immunosuppressive treatments) factors favoring the occurrence of a severe form of Covid-19 in MS and NMO patients.
The purpose of this study is to provide data on the proportion of seroconverted children and their immune status. It will also provide insight into the number of children currently infected at each time point including healthy carriers. Investigators will provide similar data on their parents in an ancillary study.
The purpose of this study is to build a large dataset of Computed Tomography (CT) images for identification of accurate CT criteria and development of deep learning-based solutions for diagnosis, quantification and prognostic estimation.
