Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to test if virtual facilitation (e.g., video coaching) increases rural pharmacists' ability to implement COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy counseling when compared to a "standard" implementation approach (e.g., training and dissemination of implementation support tools) in rural pharmacies. The main question it aims to answer is if virtual facilitation improves fidelity to a newly developed vaccine hesitancy counseling intervention when compared to standard implementation. All participants will begin in the standard implementation condition, where they will complete a webinar on COVID-19 vaccinations and a 30-minute online training on vaccine hesitancy communication. After standard implementation, they will switch to the virtual facilitation condition where they will be assigned a virtual coach to help them with implementing the intervention. There will be four fidelity observations per each 8-week intervention period to determine whether pharmacists are implementing the intervention as intended. Researchers will compare fidelity between the standard and virtual facilitation conditions.
The PRECISION is a proof-of-concept, phase II randomized clinical trial aiming to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anakinra in patients with Post-Acute COVID Syndrome (PACS) of the pro-inflammatory respiratory phenotype. Improvement is measured by a composite endpoint, namely, the "Score of PACS progression reversal"
The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity and safety of SCB-2023 trivalent vaccine compared to the prototype SCB-2019 monovalent vaccine in participants previously vaccinated with 3 doses of inactivated COVID-19 vaccine ≥6 months prior to enrollment.
Post-transplant patients with COVID-19 infection who attended Shenzhen No. 3 Hospital from December 2022 to February 2023, and enrolled the general population with COVID-19 infection who were hospitalized during the same period, matched by age and gender.
This study aims first to assess the efficacy, safety, and effectiveness of the LUSZ COVID-19 therapy consisting of a comparative study of three different treatment approaches: antiviral, antiretroviral, and immunosuppressive IL-6 receptor antagonist, and second to identify high-risk factors and biomarkers associated with fatal outcomes in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. The study seeks to validate a novel predictive scoring model for disease progression and evaluate the impact of these treatments on mortality, admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), and time to recovery.
This is a Phase 2/3, randomized, double-blind study to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of different booster dose levels of the monovalent severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) recombinant (r) spike (S) protein nanoparticle (SARS-CoV-2 rS) vaccines with Matrix-M™ adjuvant (NVX-CoV2373 [prototype Wuhan vaccine with Matrix-M adjuvant] or NVX-CoV2601 [Omicron XBB.1.5 subvariant vaccine with Matrix-M adjuvant]).
Objective: To investigate whether replacement of MMF/MPA by everolimus in kidney transplant recipients results in superior immunogenicity of COVID-19 vaccination as measured by neutralizing antibody titer against the Omicron XBB.1.5 strain. Trial design: Multicentre, open-label randomized controlled clinical trial, for a duration of at least 10 weeks with an optional extension to 18 weeks. Trial population: Kidney transplant recipients, 18 years or older, who are at least 6 months after transplantation, with a functioning kidney transplant, using MMF/MPA in combination with at least one other immunosuppressant including a calcineurin inhibitor (CNI), with at least 3 previous COVID-19 vaccinations (=basic COVID-19 immunisation). Interventions: Patients will be randomized into one of two equally sized groups, with either continuation of their current immunosuppressive regimen including MMF/MPA or replacement of MMF/MPA by everolimus during at least six weeks before until four weeks after the last vaccination. Patients will receive a repeated COVID-19 vaccination with the monovalent Omicron XBB.1.5 vaccine, 28 days thereafter they can opt to also receive two herpes zoster vaccinations with the Recombinant Zoster Vaccine (RZV) with an interval between the first and second dose of 28 days. Main trial endpoints: The neutralizing antibody titer against the Omicron XBB.1.5. strain 28 days after monovalent Omicron XBB.1.5 COVID-19 vaccination in patients continuing MMF/MPA compared to patients who switched to everolimus. Secondary trial endpoints: - SARS-CoV-2 specific anti-S1 antibody level at 28 and 56 days after COVID-19 vaccination - Varicella zoster specific anti-gE antibody level 28 days after 1st and 2nd herpes zoster vaccination - SARS-CoV-2 specific T-cell response 28 days after COVID-19 vaccination - Varicella zoster specific T-cell response 28 days after 2nd herpes zoster vaccination - Safety in terms of incidence of acute rejection, kidney function decline, SAEs, AESIs and solicited local and systemic AEs after COVID-19 and herpes zoster vaccination
Stress, anxiety, distress, and burnout are exceptionally high among healthcare workers at the frontline of the COVID-19 pandemic. The understanding of factors underlying distress and resilience in complex workplace contexts is limited, and there are limited evidence-based interventions for stress and moral distress among frontline healthcare workers. The purpose of this study is to use a Digital Intervention Suite (a combination of Virtual Reality [VR], a web-based platform, and a wearable [Oura Ring]) to understand and reduce the experience of stress/distress faced by nursing professionals.
The coronavirus (COVID -19) has rapidly turned into a global pandemic. For patients diagnosed with COVID-19, it caused severe damage in the upper respiratory system and systemic complications, including the cardiovascular, mental, nervous, and musculoskeletal system. Previous research has indicated that these subsequent sequelae can reduce quality of life. (A. W. Wong et al., 2020) Studies have indicated that exercise training is beneficial to improve blood pressure, reduce cardiovascular factors, reduce complications, and relieve depression (J. Galloza et al., 2017) However, the current international research on the benefits of exercise rehabilitation and the improvement of quality of life in patients who have been infected with COVID-19 is still lacking. Under the international epidemic, it is pointed out that the importance of telerehabilitation has also been advocated worldwide. Previous systematic review indicated that no matter it is nervous, muscular or cardiac system disease, the efficacy of telerehabilitation is superior to face-to-face rehabilitation. The purpose of this study is to compare the effect between the intervention of KNEESUP smart knee assistive device, the use of the APP, and the health education in routine outpatient after diagnosis of Long Covid-19.
COVID-19 is a systemic inflammatory disease involving many organs including the lungs, vascular system liver and myocardium that lead to severe pathologies. Patients with severe cardiopulmonary symptoms usually require weeks to months to fully recover. Studies of clinical and subclinical impairments of COVID-19 patients are important for medical practice and public health as well as providing pathogenic insight to the viral infection and secondary immune response. Chronic damage of vital organs and systems, and the potential long-term effects is of serious concern. In this study the investigators plan to quantify and characterize chronic consequences of COVID-19 in individuals who receive similar medical care related to disease severity and duration in a single health care system. Using state-of-the-art Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technology, we will study the pathology in major organ systems in comparison to matched controls. The results of this study may facilitate measures to prevent, detect, and manage complications from COVID-19 infections.
