Filter by:The research project aims to understand how pharmacies can be involved in the identification and treatment of hepatitis C (hep C). The study will look at the effectiveness of hep C testing and treatment through pharmacies with support from the Cool Aid Community Health Centre (CACHC). The study will also evaluate the readiness of pharmacies to take on these extra tasks at the pharmacy. This information will be used to develop future strategies to better detect, treat and prevent hep C.
Up to 150 individuals with current hepatitis C (HCV) will be recruited from mobile health clinics in rural South Carolina - sites will be selected based on HCV prevalence rates and lack of current HCV screening/treatment resources. NPs will provide HCV care through mobile health units. Participants will be randomized (1:1) to either mobile health clinic treatment as usual or virtual care coordination. Virtual care coordination designed to move people along HCV care cascade will be conducted by the Emocha smartphone platform - an adaptable platform designed by emocha to link patients to care. Using quantitative methods, associations between psychosocial factors such as homelessness, mental illness, provider mistrust, poor social support, high levels of shame and stigma with HCV outcomes including SVR will be examined. Investigators hypothesize that SVR rate among the HCV-infected individuals treated (and with follow-up SVR determination) will be 90% with the Clopper-Pearson 95% CI having a width of 13%.
Access to Syringes at Pharmacies (ASAP) is a refinement of an evidence-based, pharmacy intervention to increase pharmacy-based sales of syringes to PWID in order to reduce bloodborne illnesses among them.
The study aims to assess the impact of models of HCV care on HCV testing, treatment uptake and cure within Cairns. Point of care testing for HCV , with test and treat strategies will be offered within a primary care service.
A multicentric, observational, open-design study conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Sofosdac® 400mg/60mg tablets treatment in 100 patients with chronic hepatitis C (HCV)
People in Administrative Detention Centers often come from areas of medium or high HIV, hepatitis C & B endemic, and are often unaware of their serological status. Currently, HIV, hepatitis C & B screening is not systematically performed at the CRA of Nîmes, and when performed, serological tests are used. The main disadvantage of this method is the length of time it takes to obtain the results, with subjects frequently discharged before receiving their results. To improve the care of these vulnerable persons, the aim of this study is to estimate the prevalence of HIV, hepatitis C and hepatitis B in the detainees of the administrative detention center of Nîmes, by systematically screening with a rapid diagnosis test. In case of a positive rapid diagnosis test test, a serology test will confirm the rapid diagnosis test result.
The purpose of this study is to provide medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) with buprenorphine and naloxone, or bup/nx, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention, and/or hepatitis C treatment for persons who inject opioids accessing syringe services programs (SSPs), as part of a comprehensive harm reduction program, and assess the acceptability and feasibility of using telemedicine to implement the program. The initial visit will be conducted in person or remotely via telemedicine given COVID-19 protocols at the SSP site in Greensboro, North Carolina (NC); follow-up visits will be conducted via telemedicine.
Shear wave electrography score allows stratification of HCC risk in a noninvasive and reliable way and can guide the surveillance strategy for HCC in patients with CLD
Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection represents a crucial health problem in children that greatly influence their quality of life. Many efforts have been directed toward the investment of effective drugs with high safety profiles and with oral administration for better compliance. The development of a new direct-acting antiviral (DAA) made it possible to achieve these goals.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the evolution of liver injury with fibrosis data obtained using non-invasive serological markers in patients who achieved SVR after treatment with direct-acting antivirals.
