Filter by:The goal of this randomized controlled study is to evaluate the effects of balneotherapy (BT) and aquatic exercises in patients with post-acute COVID syndrome (PACS). The main question it aims to answer are: • Does BT and aquatic exercises alleviate some of the most prevalent features that characterize post-acute COVID syndrome? Participants allocated to the intervention group will undergo 3 weekly sessions of BT and aquatic exercises on alternate days in groups of 8 during 4 weeks. Prior the beginning of the intervention, patients were asked to complete an array of validated self-reported questionnaires that covered an important part of PACS symptomatology. These patients were asked to complete these same questionnaires immediately after completing the intervention and one month after. They were also asked to report adverse events associated to the intervention. Patients allocated to the control group were asked to complete the same questionnaires at baseline and one and two months post-baseline. They were instructed to not enroll in any kind of BT-related activities during the duration of the study. Questionnaires were analyzed and compared between groups to assess the effects of the intervention.
The goal of this observational study is to analyze binding antibody levels in adults in the United States (US) after receiving coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) bivalent boosters (original and omicron BA.4/5) and updated COVID-19 vaccines (XBB.1.5).
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate new non-invasive passive surveillance technologies, Level 42 AI imPulse™ Una and TOR devices for the detection of COVID-19, Flu, and/or RSV in asymptomatic and symptomatic individuals over age of 18 undergoing COVID-19, Flu, and/or RSV screening and testing at BAMC Ft Sam Houston, TX; with and without COVID-19, Flu, and/or RSV. The hypotheses are: (H1) The imPulseTM Una and the imPulseTM TOR e-stethoscopes have at least a similar discriminative and detection ability among symptomatic and asymptomatic COVID-19 carrier versus those not infected compared to gold standard RT-PCR. We will operationalize and deploy both the imPulseTM Una and imPulseTM TOR e-stethoscope into DoD use-cases and compare their usability between the devices. (H2) Identify if the imPulseTM Una and the imPulseTM TOR e-stethoscopes have at least a similar discriminative and detection ability among symptomatic and asymptomatic Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), Influenza and Long COVID carriers versus those not infected compared to gold standard Rapid RSV and Flu Antigen Tests, or RT-PCR and molecular assays. We will operationalize and deploy both the imPulseTM Una and imPulseTM TOR e-stethoscope into DoD use-cases and compare their captured traces in the early identification of disease/illness analyzed by the devices built in algorithms. (H3) In the mid to long-term, this approach will also be explored as a diagnostic system to explore pursue the physical (structural and mechanical) properties of cells and tissues that maintain normal cell behavior (motility, growth, apoptosis), and the critical importance of the ability of cells to sense and respond to mechanical stresses, which will be operationally critical for assessment of both traumatic and unconventional exposures in austere environments. Participants will: - Be consented; - Be screened for COVID-19, Flu, and/or RSV symptoms according to BAMC's current screening procedures; - Have study data collected; - Complete a symptoms questionnaire; - imPulseTM Una and TOR e-stethoscopes examination will be conducted; - Participants will be compensated for completing all study requirements. (Active-Duty personnel must complete the study procedures while off-duty in order to receive compensation.)
An Investigator-initiated, Randomized, Single-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy of SARS-Cov-2 Post Exposure Prophylaxis and Safety of HH-120 nasal spray
This is a 24-week open trial. We will enroll long-COVID patients with cognitive impairments. All patients will receive DAOIB for 24 weeks. We will assess the patients every 8 weeks during the treatment period (weeks 0, 8, 16, and 24). We hypothesize that DAOIB treatment will be beneficial in improving the cognitive function, mood symptoms, global functioning and quality of life in long-COVID patients with cognitive impairments.
Brief Summary: The main objective of this activity is to assess the effectiveness of different messaging strategies (factual, narrative, mixed and a control) to promote COVID-19 adult vaccination.
This project aims to investigate executive functioning abilities (primary outcome) and quality of sleep (secondary outcome) in patients with COVID-19 (while distinguishing between those with and without sleep fragmentation), compared with an age- and education matched control group of healthy individuals who did not experience contagion. Prefrontal electrical activity will be recorded with EEG in patients, and related to sleep and cognitive-executive metrics. The main questions it aims to answer are: - is executive functioning impaired in COVID-19 patients compared with individuals who were not infected? - is there a relationship between altered sleep and impaired executive functioning in COVID-19 patients? - is such relationship related to altered prefrontal brain activitity in COVID-19 patients?
The purpose of this research is to gather information to answer questions about the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) which is caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. This study will collect information and biological specimens from participants who have been tested for the SARS-CoV-2 infection. By doing this study, the investigators hope to learn important new information about SARS-CoV-2 infections and the potentially severe outcomes of COVID-19 to find better ways to manage and treat it in the future. The investigators also hope to learn what makes some people more susceptible to infection to help better inform Veterans on how to reduce their risk of infection. This study also involves the development and maintenance of a participant registry, a data repository, and a biorepository for future research.
Chronic fatigue, weakness, dyspnea, headaches, cognitive dysfunction, stress, sadness, anxiety, sleep disturbances, and orthostatic intolerance are among the symptoms of acute Covid-19 in patients, and these symptoms persist for more than 12 weeks after recovery. Extended Covid-19 syndrome, also known as Post-Covid-19 syndrome, is described as
Based on the characteristics of symptoms, differences in physical and chemical examinations and tests, and characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) disease differentiation and syndrome differentiation, the evaluation indicators for the clinical early warning model were screened, and the "three-level early warning mechanism for COVID-19 patients at high risks, with progression to severe cases and sequelae was constructed.
