Filter by:Bronchiolitis is a common viral infection of the small airways of infants and some affected infants will require hospital admission. Severe bronchiolitis is a marker for greatly increased risk of developing both preschool wheeze and subsequent school age asthma. Since epidemiological studies suggest that exposure to microbial products protects against preschool wheeze, lysates of bacteria may prevent the development of wheeze after bronchiolitis, with long-term beneficial consequences. BLIPA is a phase 2b, randomised, double blind, placebo-controlled study, investigating the efficacy superiority of bacterial lysate (Broncho Vaxom) capsules over placebo, in reducing wheeze in infants after severe bronchiolitis. The primary end point of the study is parent-reported, healthcare-professional confirmed wheeze at 19-24 months. The study aims to test bacterial lysate capsules (3.5mg over 24 months) for safety, efficacy, and to advance mechanistic understanding of its action.
At present, pulmonary diffusion and target antifungal concentrations for APC in patients with sarcoidosis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are unknown.
Patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) presents risk to develop muscle weakness associated with prolonged period of mechanical ventilation support and hospital stay.
1. To identify the pattern of presentation of COVID-19 in patients with chronic respiratory diseases 2. To asses the severity of COVID-19 in patients with chronic respiratory diseases 3. To identify the outcome of COVID-19 in patients with chronic respiratory diseases
It is known that the pretreatment with exogenous interferon blocks SARS-CoV-2 infection, but intervention is much more effective if administered prior to infection. In this study the primary aim is to investigate 28-day regime of nasal interferon gama use in healthy participants for COVID-19 and other respiratory infections prevention.
The primary objective of this study is to identify and describe patient behaviors and clinical outcomes among patients who have tested positive for mild to moderate COVID-19.
The primary objective of this study is to describe the longevity of IgG against SARS-CoV-2 infection or vaccination.
This study pretends to evaluate the potential use of Hyfe Cough Tracker (Hyfe) to screen for, diagnose, and support the clinical management of patients with respiratory diseases, while enriching a dataset of disease-specific annotated coughs, for further refinement of similar systems.
Background: The COVID-19 outbreak has strained the health care system. New tools are needed for diagnostic testing and monitoring of people who have the virus. Researchers want to test a device they hope can screen, detect, and monitor symptoms linked to respiratory diseases like COVID-19. Objective: To evaluate and validate a device that measures breathing, body temperature, heart rate, and tissue oxygenation. Eligibility: Healthy adults ages 18 and older with no flu-like symptoms and no current signs of infection, cough, fever, or sneezing. Design: Participants will have a physical exam. Their vital signs will be taken. Participants will sit in a chair. They will be monitored for 60 to 80 minutes while they do the following tasks: Rest for 10 minutes. They will repeat this after each task. Hold their breath for up to 2 minutes and then rest for 2 minutes. They will do this task 3 times. Pace-breathe with breathing rates of 10, 20, and 30 breaths per minute. They will do this task 2 times. Breathe air that has 5% of carbon dioxide for 5 minutes. During these tasks, data will be collected and recorded with a pulse oximeter, thermometer, respiratory belt, and spirometer. Participants will fill out questionnaires related to their daily activity (medication intake, exercise, smoking, and drinking). Participation will last for 2 to 3 hours.
Vojta therapy is a physiotherapy intervention with scientific evidence in respiratory pathologies in children and proven in adults. In this pilot study with an RCT design, its effect in adult patients with respiratory pathology caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus will be studied. The non-invasive and non-painful technique consists of applying tolerable pressure to specific areas of the patient's body. The objective is to activate, in a reflex way, the ventilatory physiology. It is compared with the conventional respiratory physiotherapy approach.
