Filter by:Our aim is to conduct a pilot single-blind randomized controlled trial to examine the preliminary efficacy of a 14 day app-based pulmonary and mobility focused rehabilitation program (intervention arm) versus a self-guided exercise program (active control arm) on pulmonary and functional outcomes in 100 patients tested for COVID-19 infection and isolated at home.
COVID 19 is a novel and severe disease. One of the problems is that the virus disturbs the lungs and cause water accumulation in lungs alveolus (ARDS). Today, a chest X-ray is the only practical way to check the degree of lung accumulation. However, X-Ray has many limitations and disadvantages. Lung impedance technology allows simple lung fluid monitoring, and found to be effective in HF patients who suffer from a similar problem. The study's aim is to establish a correlation between lung fluid assessed by impedance technique and x-ray examinations. To find a correlation between lung fluid assessment by impedance and clinical parameters of COVID 19 patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine if therapeutic dose anticoagulation (experimental group) improves 30-day mortality in participants with COVID-19 compared to those patients receiving the intermediate dose prophylaxis (control group). Following screening, subjects will be randomized 1:1 to intermediate dose prophylaxis or therapeutic dose anticoagulation treatment arms.Treatment will continue for 28 days, followed by a 6 month follow-up period.
The current project is a prospective, multicentric cohort study aiming at a multidisciplinary assessment (pulmonary, cardiometabolic, sleep and mental health) of the consequences of infection by SARS-CoV-2, 3 months after the diagnosis in order to better characterize these complications. 400 patients with a positive diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 will be included in the study 3 months after their diagnosis: They will be followed at 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years, as function of their after-effects discovered at 3 months and their evolution.
About 5% of COVID-19 patients may present symptoms related to acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Treatment-management and outcomes related to mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for COVID-19 infected patients harboring large vessel occlusion is largely unknown. This multicentric study aims to investigate morbidity, mortality and neurological outcomes after MT performed in patients with COVID-19 infection.
Seroprevalence study of COVID-19 in Saint Petersburg, Russia is a regional longitudinal cohort study aiming to evaluate the spread dynamics of the COVID-19 disease in the population of Saint Petersburg. Clinically asymptomatic adults are sampled from the population using random digit dialing and tested for the presence of SARS-CoV-2-specific antibodies in the blood serum. Data collection and serial sampling of the same individuals spans four weeks and is conducted every two weeks in order to understand both the spread of the virus in the population.
This is a randomized controlled trial of the efficacy and safety evaluation of oral administration of Bromhexine hydrochloride for the prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 disease in medical personnel assisting patients with a new coronavirus disease
The prognosis of patients with severe COVID-19 disease, whose lungs are so severely diseased that they need to be supported by veno-venous ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation), is difficult to assess so far. Previously published data from studies, case reports and case series describe a very high mortality in this patient collective. The significance of established clinical prognostic cores in this patient population has not been systematically investigated. This is aggravated by the fact that even at very specialized centers only very few patients from this collective are (can be) treated, so that valid investigations are only possible in a multicenter patient collective. In this registry study, all patients diagnosed with COVID-19 and treated with vv-ECMO in the centers participating in the study should be retrospectively examined. The primary aim of the study is to investigate 30-day survival, secondary objectives include the analysis of different clinical scores at the time of ECMO implantation.
Hospitals are recognised to be a major risk for the spread of infections despite the availability of protective measures. Under normal circumstances, staff may acquire and transmit infections, but the health impact of within hospital infection is greatest in vulnerable patients. For the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19, like recent outbreaks such as the SARS and Ebola virus, the risk of within hospital spread of infection presents an additional, significant health risk to healthcare workers. Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) teams within hospitals engage in practices that minimise the number of infections acquired within hospital. This includes surveillance of infection spread, and proactively leading on training to clinical and other hospital teams. There is now good evidence that genome sequencing of epidemic viruses such as that which causes COVID-19, together with standard IPC, more effectively reduces within hospital infection rates and may help identify the routes of transmission, than just existing IPC practice. It is proposed to evaluate the benefit of genome sequencing in this context, and whether rapid (24-48h) turnaround on the data to IPC teams has an impact on that level of benefit. The study team will ask participating NHS hospitals to collect IPC information as per usual practice for a short time to establish data for comparison. Where patients are confirmed to have a COVID-19 infection thought to have been transmitted within hospital, their samples will be sequenced with data fed back to hospital teams during the intervention phase. A final phase without the intervention may take place for additional information on standard IPC practice when the COVID-19 outbreak is at a low level nationwide.
This study investigates the efficay and tolerance of 5-days course of hydroxychloroquine or hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin of patients with COVID-19 infection. The investigators will undertake a randomized, double-blind, controlled Trial in the region of Sousse Tunisia
