Filter by:It is the aim of the current (follow-up) project for the first time in post-COVID-19 patients who continue to complain of shortness of breath and for whom there is no other explanation than possibly proven diaphragmatic weakness, to determine the effects of 6 weeks of IMT/diaphragm training on diaphragm strength and shortness of breath.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of JT001 (VV116) in participants with mild to moderate COVID-19.
This study was conducted to check whether coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID) vaccines have a relationship with LUTS or not in a healthy and mostly medically free population.
During the progression of COVID-19, some patients may require noninvasive ventilation (NIV) or high-flow nasal catheter (CNAF) oxygen therapy. The objective of the study is describe, retrospectively, possible predictor variables related to the use of NIV and CNAF, in order to associate them with their failure and consequent orotracheal intubation, through a retrospective analysis of a tertiary hospital in Rio de Janeiro. The primary and second outcomes are incidence of orotracheal intubation; time for OIT, length of stay in the ICU and hospital, and in-hospital mortality. The preliminary results shows that the absence of heart disease and dementia, as well as the acute onset of symptoms (less than or equal to 10 days) and age (between 40 and 79 years) showed a statistically significant trend.
The goal of this low-interventional study was to learn about the effect a nutritional supplement in patients with COVID-19 and respiratory support. The main questions it aimed to answer were: - if additional nutrition support has an effect on recovery of physical health in patients with COVID-19; - to examine the effect of additional nutrition support on quality of life of patients with COVID-19; - to examine the effect of the additional nutrition support on hospitalization period of patients with COVID-19. Participants were split into two groups. One group had the common hospital diet, another group in addition to the common diet was given with NutriDrink® 200 ml X 2 daily. During the observation period participants were asked to measure hand strength measured by hand grip tester and fill out the quality of life standard questionnaire SF-36. In addition, several routine blood tests were performed.
This study was conducted to examine the effects of different masks used by pregnant women on vital signs and non stress test (NST) during the COVID-19. This study was conducted as a single-blind randomized controlled trial. Healthy pregnant women aged 19 years and older, who were followed up on an outpatient basis, and who were in the 37-40th week of pregnancy, were included in the study. The study consisted of a single surgical mask group (n=30), double surgical mask group (n=30), and N95 mask group (n=31). Masks were given to the resting pregnant women 30 minutes before the NST, and they were provided to wear masks. After 30 minutes, the vital signs of the pregnant women were measured just before and after the NST, and the images of the NST traces were taken.
Plasma from convalescent individuals (convalescent plasma, CP) has been used for more than a hundred years for the treatment of infectious diseases. Among patients with COVID-19, it has been used first, in patients with severe infection. Although it is a safe treatment, it has not been possible to demonstrate a reduction in mortality in cases of acute respiratory distress syndrome. The objective of the clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the early use (less than 5 days of symptoms) of CP in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 with risk factors for severe disease. The primary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of patients requiring oxygen therapy to maintain saturation >93% on day 14. Secondary objectives included, evaluation of the safety of the treatment, measured as the appearance of some adverse event related to the CP infusion; the evolution of COVID-19 symptoms and WHO progression scale status at day 14 and 28 after inclusion; the need for hospitalization due to progression of COVID-19. COVID-19 progression was considered as worsening of respiratory symptoms requiring oxygen therapy at some point. Finally, death from any cause was evaluated at 28 days, after inclusion in the study.
The purpose of this study is to compare whether being treated with Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir plus ritonavir) for 15 days works better than being treated with placebo (plus ritonavir) to reduce severe symptoms of Long Covid (the placebo does not have any active drug). Participants will have 5 planned visits to the study clinic over 15 weeks and will take the drug (or placebo) for the first 15 days. This study uses the term post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC), which is another name for "Long Covid."
This study aims to determine the effect of simulation education as an approach to patients with COVID-19 on nursing students' perception and fear of the COVID-19 disease. This study was conducted in a randomized controlled trials with 86 nursing students from a university between November 10 and December 10, 2021.
The aims of this study were: 1. Observation of dynamics in oral microbiota and its association with the incidence of HAIs and VAP in mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients in an ICU setting 2. Evaluation of the incidence of HAIs and VAP and their association with oral bacteriobiota in mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients in an ICU setting 3. Assessment of impact of different oral hygienic procedures on oral microbiota, the incidence of HAI and patients' safety in mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients in an ICU setting approaches to oral care in an ICU setting Intervention of oral hygienic procedures implemented in study: Patients were divided into 2 groups depending on the oral care procedure: 1. Standard oral procedure (cleaning and moisturizing of oral cavity, suction of excess fluid) 2. Extended oral procedure (cleaning and moisturizing of oral cavity, teeth brushing, suction of excess fluid)
