Filter by:The goal of this PHASE III clinical trial is to evaluate efficacy and safety of intravenous TAD® 600 mg/4 mL solution for injection in preventing myocardial injury in patients with pneumonia. The main question it aims to answer is: • could TAD® used as an add-on treatment to the standard therapy, due to the presence of the sodium salt glutathione, be effective and safe in preventing the risk of developing myocardial injury in hospitalized patients with pneumonia? Patients diagnosed with pneumonia (in the emergency department or hospital ward) will be asked to participate in the study and sign the Informed Consent Form (ICF) to assess their eligibility for enrollment. Eligible patients who meet the study inclusion criteria and complete the required Screening & Baseline (V0) examinations, will be randomized with a 1:1 ratio allocation to the IMP Test group (TAD® treatment) or IMP Placebo group (Placebo treatment) in a double-blind manner, PI & Patient blinded. TAD® (600 mg/4 mL reconstituted solution in 50 mL of 0.9% sodium chloride solution) or Placebo (50 mL of 0.9% sodium chloride solution) will be administered: - intravenously (with an infusion rate of 10 mL/min) - 2 times a day (with a dosing interval of 8 hours ± 30 minutes) - for 5 consecutive days (Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4 and Day 5) - patients will then be required to undergo five Follow-up Visits.
Sleep disturbance is one of the most common complaints of patients admitted to ICU. Insufficient sleep in intensive care units may be associated with environmental reasons such as excessive light at night, loud warning sounds and mechanical ventilation alarms, as well as non-environmental factors, including the situation at the time of admission. Sleep assessment is subjective in nature, so it is difficult to perform in the ICU. Since communication with the patient is prevented, clear information about perceived rest and disturbing factors cannot be provided. For this reason, night rest is an issue that is often forgotten and ignored. This study applied a mixture of lavender, medicinal chamomile and neroli oil (in 20 ml of sweet almond oil; lavender oil 2 drops, medicinal chamomile 4 drops, neroli oil 6 drops) to patients who were monitored in intensive care on high-flow and oxygen, once a day for three days. This study will be conducted to determine the effect of aromatherapy massage applied for a total of 30 minutes on sleep quality.
The aim of this randomised controlled trial is to identify the optimal treatment duration with phenoxymethylpenicillin for community-acquired pneumonia diagnosed in general practice. Eligible participants are adults (≥18 years) presenting in general practice with symptoms of an acute LRTI (i.e., acute illness (≤ 21 days) usually with cough and minimum one other symptom such as dyspnea, sputum production, wheezing, chest discomfort or fever) in whom the GP finds it relevant to treat with antibiotics. Consenting patients who meet all the eligibility criteria will be randomised (1:1:1:1:1) to either three, four, five, six or seven days of treatment with phenoxymethylpenicillin 1.2 MIE four times daily.
The primary objective of the REACT randomized clinical trial (RCT) is to optimize the clinical benefit from adjunctive clarithromycin treatment shown in the ACCESS trial and to provide evidence for the clinical benefit of early start of adjunctive oral clarithromycin guided by suPAR to prevent the progression into sepsis in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) at risk. This can be achieved by endpoints incorporating clinical benefit with the effect of treatment on the improvement of the immune dysregulation of CAP. The secondary objectives of REACT are to investigate the impact of early adjunctive treatment with clarithromycin on the resolution of CAP at the test-of-cure (TOC) visit.
During cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), oxygenation of the patient on the pump can be left completely under pump control, or the lungs can be ventilated with low tidal volume to reduce atelectasis. In recent years, the concept of mechanical power has been used to determine the extent of ventilator-related lung damage. This concept of mechanical power, by which the energy transferred by the ventilator to the lungs can be calculated, will be measured at certain intervals in CPB surgery patients on the pump and compared between the two groups. The investigators aimed to investigate the effect of two different ventilation methods on mechanical power and its relationship with postoperative pulmonary complications.
The hypothesis for this trial is that an antibiotic strategy for the management of non-severe community-acquired alveolar pneumonia in children aged 3 to 59 months, including amoxicillin 80-100 mg/kg/day for at least 3 days in case of rapid response and 5 days in case of delayed response, would not be inferior to current French recommendations (antibiotic therapy for 5 days in case of rapid response and 7 days in case of delayed response) in terms of treatment of failure rate at 7 days.
Severe community-acquired pneumonia still has a high incidence and mortality, but the molecular mechanism and prognostic biomarkers of severe community-acquired pneumonia caused by different pathogens are still unclear, and the best treatment strategy has not been determined. Based on this, this project intends to take patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia caused by different pathogens as the research object, explore the molecular mechanism of severe community-acquired pneumonia from multiple angles, integrate relevant research data to evaluate the rationality of initial empirical medication, and lay the foundation for precise treatment of severe pneumonia. The research results will help to develop a new rapid and accurate target for clinical diagnosis and efficacy evaluation of severe pneumonia, and build a precise treatment system for severe pneumonia.
Sepsis is a complex syndrome that causes lethal organ dysfunction due to an abnormal host response to infection. No drug specifically targeting sepsis has been approved. The heterogeneity in sepsis pathophysiology hinders the identification of patients who would benefit, or be harmed, from specific therapeutic interventions. Recent clinical genomics studies have shown that sepsis patients can be stratified as molecular endotypes, or subclasses, with important clinical implications. Classifying sepsis patients as molecular endotypes revealed that a poor prognosis endotype was characterized by immunosuppression and septic shock. Against this backdrop, the study hypothesis is that a poor prognosis for sepsis is defined by a molecular endotype reflecting impaired innate immune and endothelial barrier integrity in the primary anatomical site of infection.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the eravacycline combination therapy in multidrug-resistant acinetobacter gaumannii pneumonia. The main question is to evaluate the the effectiveness and safety. Participants will be given Eravacycline and Polymyxin，or other antibiotcs that the Investigator considered suitable. During the clinical trial, participants will be monitored for blood drug concentrations and drug concentrations in the ELF (Epithelial Lining Fluid。Clinical efficacy rate and microbiological clearance rate will be assessed at the same time
Descriptive, retrospective, observational, anonymous, study to evaluate the potential effect of incorporating calcifediol into the therapeutic protocol of patients hospitalized for COVID-19 on mortality and other outcome variables, such as admission to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), to "Gerencia de Atención Integrada (GAI) de Albacete". "Complejo Hospitalario Universitario de Albacete". Albacete (Spain)", based on the files of the MXXI medical records, Information System of the Laboratory (ISL) and Pharmacy.
