Filter by:This is a multi-center, double-blinded study of COVID-19 infected patients randomized 1:1 to daily losartan or placebo for 10 days or treatment failure (hospital admission).
The epidemic due to the Sars-CoV2 virus is spreading in France, without knowning precisely since when the virus has actually circulated on the territory. Data from China but also systematic samples taken from the passengers of the Diamond Princess boat also report almost 50% of asymptomatic forms of Covid-19. The medical and paramedical staff of the front-line services for the care of patients infected with Covid-19 are in fact potentially exposed to the risk of occupational contamination due to the large number of patients treated, including in the pre-epidemic phase. Therefore, and despite the application of standard protective measures, it is possible that a certain number of these personnel already have or will contract Covid-19 disease, including in its asymptomatic form.
A randomized control trial studying the effect of prophylactic antibiotics to reduce surgical site infections following cardiac surgery in adults using 1st generation cephalosporin (Cefazolin) or 2nd generation cephalosporin (Cefuroxime).
Randomized controlled trial to determine clinical and microbiome difference between fractional CO2 Laser and vaginal estrogen in treating patients with recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI).
The aim of this study is to collect the data on the effectiveness of dalbavancin in terms of save of hospitalization days on patients treated between June 2017 and June 2019 in two countries (Italy and Greece) vs the other Standards of care of the same class (SoC; i.v. lipo and glycopeptides) in a real-life context. Time to discharge from the start of therapy for ABSSSI in the hospital context will be assessed and all relevant data available on patient management, clinical, microbiological and safety outcomes during hospitalization and in the follow-up visits up to 30 days from discharge will be collected and evaluated.
This is a phase 2, single-group, multi-site, open-label study of an islatravir/doravirine (ISL/DOR, MK-8591A) fixed dose combination (FDC) for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection in pediatric participants who are virologically suppressed (VS) on antiretroviral therapy (ART) for ≥3 months or are treatment-naive (TN). The primary purposes of the study are 1) to examine the steady-state pharmacokinetics (PK) of ISL in plasma; 2) the steady-state PK of ISL-triphosphate (ISL-TP) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs); and 3) to examine the safety and tolerability of ISL/DOR.
Bloodstream infections are frequent in children admitted to the hospital for severe febrile illness in sub-Saharan Africa.Ongoing blood culture surveillance at Kisantu Hospital showed non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) as the first cause of bloodstream infections in children. Bloodstream infections have a high case fatality (15 - 20%). Outcome of bloodstream infections is dependent on timely diagnosis and treatment. However, observations at Kisantu Hospital showed that many children arrive late and die early after admission. By interviewing caregivers of severely ill children admitted to Kisantu Hospital, the investigators aim to study their health itinerary, i.e. the sequence of all actions of health care seeking and care provision between the onset of febrile illness and the admission at the hospital. The investigators aim to assess the health itinerary according to the "three delays" model. The three delays model studies delays and practices at the level of health care seeking, of transport and of start of antibiotic treatment.10 Visits to referring health centers will provide complementary information about diagnosis, treatment and referral practices. In hospital follow-up will allow to assess the outcome according to the duration of health itinerary. The results of routine laboratory tests upon hospital admission will allow to stratify the health itinerary according to fever etiology. The results of this study will allow to understand the duration of the health itinerary, its possible association with case-fatality, and factors explaining for delays at every level. This information is expected to orient local health policy makers towards interventions shortening the duration of the health itinerary and in that case improve and monitor the referral system. In addition, the study results are expected to orient towards further research to understand health seeking behavior (i.e. focus-group discussions and community-based studies).
To depict the incidence, outcomes and standards of care (SoC) of adenovirus (AdV) infections and associated practice patterns in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant recipients. It is expected that participating centers will be in the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Germany, and Italy.
Since December 2019, there has been an outbreak of novel coronavirus pneumonia in China. As of February 18, 2020, 72,530 cases confirmed with 2019 coronavirus disease(COVID-19) have been reported and 1,870 deaths were declared. Until now, cases of COVID-19 have been reported in 26 countries. This observational study aims to analysis the clinical features of neonates with COVID-19 and the neonates born to mother with COVID-19.
A Multicentre, controlled, randomized trial of 3 site (urethra, pharynx and rectum) sampling performed every 3 months (3x3) for Neisseria gonorrhoea (Ng)/Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) screening (comparator) vs. no screening (intervention).
