Filter by:Retrospective clinical-epidemiological study aimed at characterizing COVID-19 disease in adults older than 70 years, hospitalized in the "Perpetuo Socorro" Hospital of Albacete (Spain) from 09/03/2020 until 20/04/2020. Secondary objectives will be to analyze clinical-epidemiological characteristics of COVID-19 patients treated with Baricitinib or Anakinra, and to describe the efficacy and secondary effects of those drugs.
Covid-19 pandemic now affects more than two million people worldwide. The neurotropism of the virus is assumed by its frequent association with neurological symptoms (anosmia, ageusia, headaches) but the extent of the central or peripheral nervous system involvement and the associated symptomatology remain poorly known for now. The main objective of this study is to describe the neurological and psychiatric manifestations occurring in the context of Covid-19 infection in patients hospitalized or followed-up in the APHP.SU hospital group. A better understanding of the neuropsychiatric impairment related to Covid-19 would improve the management of these patients in the acute phase, and knowledge of subsequent complications would allow adapting their rehabilitation and follow-up. The precise phenomenological description of these manifestations and the imaging, biology and neuropathology data will be compiled from the data collected by the physicians in charge of these patients as part of their inpatient or outpatient care. This study will also allow collecting unusual clinical manifestations from patients followed for neurological or psychiatric pathology in hospital departments and presenting a Covid-19 infection, in order to optimize the reorganization of their management, follow-up and rehabilitation in the epidemic context.
Background: People who get infected with COVID-19 have an unpredictable risk to worsen and die. This makes it hard to decide who can quarantine at home and who should be treated at a hospital. Researchers think the risk may be related to how a person s B and T cells respond to the virus. B and T cells are the major components of a person s immune response. B and T cells responding to the virus with a favorable pattern may lead to recovery, and this favorable pattern may be helpful to establish. If people in a vaccine trial get this same favorable pattern when responding to a vaccine, this may be a useful early signal that the vaccine will be successful. Objective: To examine how immune cells respond to COVID-19 infection. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who have a confirmed or suspected COVID-19 infection or had COVID-19 in the past. Also, healthy donors with no suspected COVID-19 infection Design: Participants will be screened with medical record review. Participants will be tested with a research assay to determine who was infected with COVID-19 and who was not. This test will be used to understand research results, not to advise patients. Participants with active infection must be isolated, usually in a hospital. Other participants may give blood samples at NIH or at their local doctor s office or lab. Participants may give blood samples up to three times a week for a total of ten times, and may also give blood samples after starting a vaccine trial. Participants will be contacted by phone or email every 2 months for up to 2 years.
This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the efficacy and safety of canakinumab plus standard-of-care (SOC) compared with placebo plus SOC in patients with COVID-19-induced pneumonia and cytokine release syndrome (CRS).
The aim of the research is to improve patient management by rapidly identifying, based on the terrain and clinical and biological characteristics, those patients likely to present a severe form of ARDS at risk of leading to intensive care
Rationale: Currently there are no approved treatments for COVID-19. In the Dutch treatment protocol guideline (SWAB) designated treatment is supportive care with the option to add chloroquine base (CQ) or hydroxychloroquine (HCQ). CQ and HCQ are implemented because of their in vitro activity, results from small animal studies, and anecdotal patient's data. There are no published randomized studies with these medications in patients with disease caused by any coronavirus. Objective: To evaluate if treatment with only supportive care or addition of one of two anti-COVID_19 agents (chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine) results in less disease progression in patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 who require hospital admission. Study design: Multicentre, cluster randomized cross-over, open label trial. Hospitals will be randomly allocated to one of 3 treatment arms in sequential periods of one week: chloroquine base versus hydroxychloroquine versus supportive care without any drug presumed active against SARS-COV-2. Patients will be treated based on the date of inclusion. Study population: Adults aged of 18 years and older with moderate to severe, with a NEWS-2 score ≤ 5, laboratory confirmed COVID-19, who require hospital admission in a ward outside the Medium Care or Intensive Care. Intervention (if applicable): Depending on the treatment arm, the study subject will receive only supportive care or an addition with one of the two agents active against SARS-CoV-2 (chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine). Main study parameters/endpoints: Disease progression defined as a NEWS-2 score ≥ 7 within 14 days, or admission to Medium Care or Intensive Care Unit, or death.
We plan to perform an observational study to evaluate the prevalence of burnout, depression and medical errors in a designated exclusive Covid-19 patients hospital in Malaysia, during the Covid-19 pandemic. We also seek to assess the relationship between burnout and depression with medical errors. The population studied will be the anaesthesiology fraternity, who are at higher risk to the nature of their work at the frontlines of the pandemic.
Hope Biosciences is conducting a research study of an investigational product called allogeneic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (abbreviated as HB-adMSCs) as treatment for patients suspected to have COVID-19. The study purpose is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of four IV infusions of either placebo or HB-adMSCs in subjects with COVID-19.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of convalescent donor plasma to treat COVID-19 in hospitalized adults in a randomized, placebo-controlled setting. The effect of convalescent plasma will be compared to placebo on clinical outcomes, measured using the COVID-19 7-point Ordinal Clinical Progression Outcomes Scale at Day 15, among adults with COVID-19 requiring hospitalization.
LIINC is a study of volunteers who were previously infected with SARS-CoV-2 (also known as novel coronavirus or COVID-19) who have recovered from acute infection. The study is designed to provide a specimen bank of samples with carefully characterized clinical data. LIINC specimens will be used to examine multiple questions involving the virologic, immunologic, and host factors involved in COVID-19, with a focus on understanding variability in the long-term immune response between individuals.
