The confrontation of COVID-19 foreshadowed a serious crisis of scarce health resources worldwide. To assist in this confrontation, the Palliative Care Scientific Technical Core of the Clinical Hospital, School of Medicine, Sao Paulo University (USP) elaborated a Triage Protocol for Palliative Care (PALI-COVID Tool) and it was possible to categorize the patients in three groups, according to the risk of death and needs of Palliative Care (PC), through the clinical evaluation of the patient that also directed them to the hospitalization resource according to their need (ward x ICU).
The purpose of this study is to look at the safety and effectiveness of PAXLOVID in the real world and not in clinical studies. The study observes patients who have a high chance of getting severe COVID-19 in Korea. This study is seeking participants who are: - Patients with mild-to-moderate COVID-19 symptoms and at high chance of getting severe COVID-19, including hospitalization or death. - Patients who received, are currently receiving, or are going to receive PAXLOVID according to locally approved label. - Patients who have signed informed consent documents after understanding all the important parts of the study. All participants are treated according to routine medical practice and there are no scheduled visits required by this study. All participants will be studied for a follow-up period of 28 days from the last PAXLOVID treatment to understand the safety and the effectiveness of treatment.

This is a Phase 2, randomised, and double-blinded study to assess the safety, tolerability, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of Baiya SARS-CoV-2 Vax 2 vaccine, when used as a booster vaccination following vaccination with the alternate and widely used COVID-19 vaccines.
Aerosol Generating Medical Procedures (AGMP) are procedures that have the potential to create tiny particles suspended in the air. These particles can contain germs such as viruses. The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic was caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 experience unusually high rates of critical illness that needs advanced airway management and intensive care unit admission. Bag-valve-mask (BVM) ventilation, endotracheal Intubation (ETI) and chest compressions are sometimes required for critically ill COVID-19 patients, and may contribute to a high risk of infection amongst Health Care Workers (HCW). To lessen HCW risk during high-risk procedures, a device called an aerosol box has been developed to place over the head of the patient, shielding the provider's face from virus droplets suspended in the air. The purpose of this research study is to better understand how particles disperse during AGMPs, more specifically during the provision of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The project team hopes what is learned from the project can help inform infection control measures. This could help make changes to the clinical environment and make it safer for HCW's. The investigators intend to explore how an aerosol box performs in reducing contamination of HCW's who perform critical airway interventions during resuscitation events.
This study aims to identify if breathless patients with Long COVID have reduced transfer factor on pulmonary function testing and if the degree of transfer factor reduction is correlated with the symptom severity and physiological ability to exercise. We will also investigate whether a new type of X-ray called a dynamic chest X-ray can identify perfusion abnormalities and whether these correlate with differences in diffusion capacity measured on a pulmonary function test.
REVERSE-LC is a phase 3 trial of baricitinib versus placebo in adults with neurocognitive impairment (a form of Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias or ADRD) or cardiopulmonary symptoms due to Long COVID.
Some people who have been infected with the virus that causes COVID-19 can experience long-term effects from their infection, known as post COVID-19 conditions (PCC) or long COVID1. The medical circles often describe it as post-acute sequelae of Covid-19 (PASC). People with post-COVID conditions can have a wide range of symptoms that can last more than four weeks or even months after infection. Sometimes the symptoms can even go away or come back again. The Centers for Disease and Prevention (CDC) listed a constellation of 19 symptoms related to post COVID-19. In research, brain fog is prominent among the most reported neurological symptoms which also include, numbness, tingling, headache, dizziness, blurred vision, tinnitus, and fatigue that last more than a year post-infection. Vielight Inc. has developed a compact and portable device named the "Vielight RX Gamma", which is suitable for home use. The intervention is based on the science of photobiomodulation (PBM) which utilizes certain light energy to modify cellular functions. The fundamental mechanisms of PBM are based on the absorption of photons by the mitochondria to modulate cellular functions. The Vielight Neuro RX Gamma delivers light of specific wavelengths (810 nm), power and duration to the brain/nasal cavity to achieve this. The biological process involves numerous interacting mechanisms that modulate bodily functions. One result of PBM is the benefits it could offer the post COVID-19 (long COVID) population. The Vielight Neuro RX Gamma emitting NIR might reduce inflammatory markers relevant to COVID-19 and since it pulses at 40 Hz can activate the non-inflammatory M2-genotype microglia to remove markers of Alzheimer disease, such as beta-amyloid and possibly tau deposits. Using Vielight Neuro RX Gamma, the same activation of non-inflammatory markers might occur with post COVID-19 (long-COVID) patient population as well as the reduction in the brain fog. This trial utilizes a completely remote and virtual design. It is a double blind randomized controlled trial that is expected to involve 36 participants who are confirmed to have Post- COVID cognitive impairment. Eighteen of the participants will be randomized to the active Vielight RX Gamma protocol, and the other eighteen participants will be randomized to the sham Vielight RX Gamma regimen. The trial will study patients over 120 days and ask them to track their symptoms in a daily survey.
This is a multicenter, parallel groups, partially randomized, open-label, blank-controlled adaptive platform study to evaluate the effectiveness of a second COVID-19 vaccine booster in Chinese adults who are charactered as the majority of whom with hybrid immunity of COVID-19 vaccination and COVID-19 breakthrough infection. Individuals aged 18 years and over, include the elderly over 60 years old or those with underlying diseases (history of underlying medical conditions diagnosed by a clinician, including hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, etc). The eligible participants with an interval ≥ 4 months after previous SARS-CoV-2 infection (or had never been infected) and ≥ 6 months from the first COVID-19 vaccine booster will be recruited. Participants who are not willing to receive the second booster but are consent to participate the surveillance for COVID-19, will be included as a blank control. Informed consent will be acquired from eligible participants. Other participants who are willing to receive the second booster and participate the surveillance for COVID-19, will be randomly allocated in a ratio of 1: k (k is the number of vaccine types) to the different investigational vaccines, stratified according to age and history of COVID-19 infection. The symptomatic COVID-19 cases will be reported and documented in both the investigational and control groups. The occurrence of serious adverse events within 6 months after vaccination will be observed. Moreover, blood and nasal mucosa samples will be collected on the day 0 before and day 14, month 3 and 6 after the booster vaccination in a subgroup for humoral, cellular and mucosal immunogenicity analysis. Moreover, oral specimens will be collected once for all participants on the day of enrollment.
Despite the controversy, on October 6, 2021, the World Health Organization (WHO) recognized Long Coronavirus disease (COVID) by officially defining it: " symptoms appeared 3 months after the onset of the primary infection by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), persisting for at least 2 months and which cannot be explained by any other condition ". Long COVID can affects any type of patient and has polymorphic and fluctuating symptoms over time. The Reunion Island is a French overseas department located in the Indian Ocean accounting more than 860,000 inhabitants. It has recorded since March 11, 2020, nearly 491,825 cases of COVID-19 and 961 deaths of hospitalized patients. Reunion's population is multi-ethnic and younger than the metropolitan France's one. It also has a higher prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes, two serious form factors of COVID-19. This specific context makes this island a particular study site for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and Long COVID. In addition, some studies have confirmed the involvement of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) in the symptomatology of Long COVID and demonstrated that patients with a Long COVID present a dysfunction of their ANS which is objectified by a reduced Heart Rate Variability (HRV). The regulation of heart rate by the ANS is strongly favored by respiration. A regular slow and deep breathing training helps to adjust the baroreflex, which connect heart rate, breathing and blood pressure. The result of this training is an induced state called "cardiac coherence" (CC). The investigator therefore hypothesize that respiratory training to CC could "re-educate" the ANS and durably improve the symptomatology of patients with Long COVID.
