Filter by:A proportion of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia have a prolonged course of illness. Some of these patients continue to have considerable respiratory symptoms or persistent hypoxemia. The CT abnormalities in these patients are often a combination of ground-glass opacities and patchy multifocal consolidation consistent with a pattern of OP. In several patients, these radiologic abnormalities persist. As with other forms of OP, patients with post-COVID OP or post COVID diffuse lung disease (PC-DLD) may benefit from treatment with oral glucocorticoids. The ideal dose of glucocorticoids for treating PC-DLD is unknown. In this study, the investigatros aim to compare the efficacy and safety of a medium dose and a low dose of prednisolone (as the initial dose) for the treatment of post-COVID. diffuse lung disease.
ExoFlo, Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cell Derived Extracellular Vesicles Allograft Product, Infusion Treatment is currently being studied in Protocol DB-EF-PhaseIII-0001 in patients COVID-19 associated moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). This expanded access protocol is an open label study intended to provide ExoFlo to critically ill patients who do not qualify for the Phase III randomized controlled trial (RCT) because they - Do not meet phase III eligibility criteria at current phase III sites. - Do meet phase III eligibility criteria but cannot access phase III sites. - Do not meet phase III eligibility criteria & cannot access phase III sites.
This is an observational data and recording study. The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of SARS-COV2 infection on patients' sense of smell and taste, through quality control measurements using optic analogue scale (VAS) in hospitalized and in home-quarantined patients.
Recent studies show that patients who have contracted COVID-19 retain very significant fatigue after resolving the infectious episode. This fatigue may be explained by low-grade inflammation. There is more data for patients with COVID-19 who have been hospitalized than for non-hospitalized patients with milder forms. However, COVID-19 related fatigue would not only affect elderly people with severe cardiopulmonary consequences but also young subjects without severities. This notion is not very widespread and to date, COVID contracted by young subjects is considered to have very few consequences on their health. It is also known that the prevalence of sleep debt is significant in the general population and particularly in young people, and it is also known that sleep deprivation increases low-grade inflammation and facilitates the risk of viral contamination. The association between sleep deprivation, drowsiness and possibly low-grade inflammation raise questions about the mechanisms of fatigue in the general population. Investigators are also entitled to wonder to what extent the chronic sleep debt suffered by the French population can explain an increased risk of contamination by COVID 19 but also significant residual fatigue after COVID infection. Bordeaux University Hospital screens 2,000 subjects per day at risk of being infected by COVID, it would be very interesting to measure, in a population of young adults aged 18-45 years, frequently exposed to a sleep debt, sleep hygiene (bedtime and wake-up times, sleep and wake-up schedules, and overall sleep satisfaction), average sleep duration, level of fatigue and drowsiness and to compare these thresholds between subjects with or without COVID 19 according to nasopharyngeal PCR.
This expanded access protocol will provide access to the investigational product Zofin for patients in outpatient facilities infected with SARS-CoV-2 who have mild to moderate COVID-19, or who are judged by a healthcare provider to be at high risk of progression to moderate disease.
The vaccination policy is drawn up in France by the French Minister of Health, who makes public the vaccination schedule after the opinion of the High Authority of Health. Currently according to the 2019 immunization schedule, the dTP vaccine is the only mandatory in the general population with recalls in adults aged 25, 45, 65 and every 10 years. In 2011, the Ministry of Health estimated that only 50.5% of the general population was up to date against dTP. Two vaccines are recommended for person at risk of infection according to the current vaccine schedule: the flu vaccine and the pneumococcal vaccine. In fact, influenza and pneumococcal disease are more frequent and more serious in patients with chronic diseases (diabetes, cardiac insufficiency..) compared to the general population. The vaccination coverage rate of at-risk populations is dramatically below the vaccination coverage targets set by the Ministry of Health. Indeed, there are many barriers to vaccination, medical and para-medical barriers, but also individual barriers. The current COVID-19 pandemic has identified people at risk of severe infection and death risk, particularly those with co-morbidities (diabetes, cardiovascular disease, etc.). Thus, this pandemic may have contributed to change in patients' perceptions regarding both the risk of infection and the potential interest and benefit of vaccination.
This is an open-label, pragmatic, single-dose study using matched controls in participants with mild to moderate COVID-19. Participants will track for developing symptoms while at home and upon reporting of symptoms will test for COVID-19. If positive for COVID-19, a one-time at-home infusion of Bamlanivimab (LY3819253) will be provided by Optum Infusion. Participants will then track for 28 days to assess for any additional medical care needed or if hospitalization was required.
This study is randomized, double-blind (blinded for the trial subject and the study physician), placebo-controlled trial in the parallel assignment of the immunogenicity, and safety of the Gam-COVID-Vac combined vector vaccine against the SARS-CoV-2-induced coronavirus infection in adults in the SARS-СoV-2 infection prophylactic treatment.
Novel Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak seriously challenges worldwide health care systems. The current climate of anxiety due to COVID-19 and home confinement limiting access to emergency departments (ED) have induced an increase of phone calls to the emergency call center "15" medical advices. To determine if a pediatric telephone triage protocol may improve patient's pathways during COVID-19 outbreak, parental compliance is assessed after telephone advice, during and after home confinement (the end of home confinement in France was on May 11th 2020). From 14th April 2020 to 7th June 2020, all calls received by the platform of telephone calls at Children's Lenval Hospital during open hours and open days are collected. For each call, symptoms are recorded by trained physicians and trained residents using a telephonic triage tool through a directed interview. A medical orientation is recommended to parents at the end of their call. Follow-up are conducted 2 to 4 days after with their consent by telephone interview in order to evaluate their compliance
The aim is to explore the feasibility and safety of urine alkalinisation in critically ill patients with COVID-19.
