Filter by:The study is planned to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of XC8, film-coated tablets, in the treatment of dry non-productive cough on the background of acute respiratory infections in children from 6 to 17 years compared with placebo.
The study is planned to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of Ingavirin®, capsules, 60 mg, in the treatment of influenza or other acute respiratory infections in children from 13 to 17 years compared with placebo.
The study titled " The Effect of Definitive Identification of Viral Etiology in Emergency Department Patients with Acute Respiratory Infection on Antibiotic Utilization (RADIATE)" aims to investigate the effectiveness of a rapid diagnostic approach in reducing unnecessary antibiotic use in the emergency department (ED) for patients presenting with acute respiratory illness (ARI) due to a virus. Using a prospective design, eligible participants are individuals who visit the ED with complaints related to acute respiratory illness. The study will employ a single-arm consecutive enrollment approach. The intervention involves the implementation of a rapid point-of-care multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test to promptly identify the viral cause of the infection. By utilizing a rapid diagnostic tool to identify viral etiology, the study aims to provide healthcare professionals in the ED with more accurate information to guide treatment decisions. Ultimately, the goal is to decrease the unnecessary use of antibiotics for ARI's due to a virus, which has several negative outcomes including promotion of antibiotic resistance, exacerbating ED length of stay and encouraging unnecessary additional diagnostic tests.
Influenza and other acute respiratory viral infections remain practically uncontrollable diseases due to the high variability of the antigenic structure of influenza viruses and the heterogeneity of pathogens of acute respiratory infections. Therefore, for the prevention and treatment of influenza, acute respiratory viral infections and herpes infections, it is relevant to develop drugs - immunomodulators that mobilize the reserves of nonspecific and specific immune systems and enhance the effects of these systems against the pathogens. The drug CYCLOFERON, 150 mg, enteric-coated tablets, contains the active substance meglumine acridone acetate, which is an interferon inducer. Interferons are the most important system of innate immunity, which has antiviral and immunomodulatory effects, and can protect the body from infection with a virus, and in case of infection, fight the causative agent of the disease. The planned clinical trial of the efficacy and safety of the drug CYCLOFERON in the dosage form of a tablet will study its ability to prevent influenza and other respiratory viral infections in adults who have already had close contact with patients with manifest disease.
The trial "Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Preliminary Efficacy of herbal products for the treatment of acute respiratory viral infections including SARS-CoV2 in Uganda; Phase 2A Open Label Clinical Trial" is currently being implemented under the Clinical Trials of Natural therapeutics Program. The trial sample size is 510, and the participants include adults (18 years or more) who fulfill the case definitions of acute respiratory infections (ARI), test positive for one of the target respiratory viruses, are negative for TB on GeneXpert; non-pregnant/non-breast-feeding females, have no history of hypersensitivity to any of the investigational products, and have given written consent to participate in the trial. The overall objective of the trial is to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of TazCoV and Vidicine for the treatment of acute respiratory viral infections including (SARS-CoV2, RSV and Influenza A/B) in Uganda. Primary objectives include: 1. To determine the safety and pharmacokinetics of TAZCOV and Vidicine herbal products among adult participants patients with acute respiratory infections including those due to laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV2, RSV and Influenza A/B 2. To determine the extent of SARS-CoV2, RSV, and Influenza A/B viral clearance among adult participants patients with acute viral respiratory infection treated using TAZCOV and Vidicine 3. To establish time-to-remission of symptoms among participants patients with acute respiratory infections including those due to laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV2, RSV and Influenza treated with TAZCOV or Vidicine 4. To evaluate disease progression among participants patients with acute respiratory infections including those due to laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV2, RSV and Influenza treated with TAZCOV or Vidicine The end points include: Solicited and unsolicited side effects (mild, moderate, severe, adverse and serious adverse events), days to viral clearance (RT-PCR negativity) for those with a positive viral test at enrolment and time to presenting symptom resolution. The Pharmacokinetic endpoints include: the maximum concentration of IMP in plasma [Cmax], time taken for the IMP plasma concentration to reach maximum levels [Tmax] and time taken for the concentration of the IMP in the plasma or the total amount in the body to be reduced by 50%.
Capnodynamic monitoring has the potential to offer continuous and non-invasive measurements of heart and lung function in patients requiring ventilation in an intensive care setting. Since mechanical ventilation with full patient synchronization is commonly used in ICU, capnodynamic monitoring can be immediately embedded in clinical care and compared to current methods of monitoring cardiac output, lung volumes and oxygen delivery. This observational study will explore capnodynamic monitoring in mechanically ventilated patients with a range of cardiorespiratory compromise.
Early identification and Severity prediction of Acute Respiratory infectious disease has become a top priority for clinicians at department of infectious and respiratory diseases after COVID-19 broke out. This is a multicenter, prospective, and randomized study, which aims to figure out the best way of early identification and severity prediction of acute respiratory infectious diseases. Patients with suspected acute respiratory infectious diseases will be enrolled into this study and received two different diagnostic pathways.
In Pakistan, pneumonia and recurrent wheeze in children under five pose significant threats to children's health. Despite being preventable, more than 90,000 children die each year due to pneumonia in Pakistan, making it one of the top five countries in the world, with the highest pneumonia related childhood mortality. The predisposing factors which lead to these illnesses include lack of hygiene, lack of immunization, overcrowding, household air pollution, smoking, and poverty. Prompt recognition and timely initiation of treatment is imperative in children under five with pneumonia and recurrent wheeze and failure to do so can lead to complications and death. In children under five, among the causes of death due to these diseases, one is delayed care seeking. It has been identified that around 38% of deaths due to respiratory illnesses occur in households due to this delayed care seeking which is defined as delay in care sought for an illness outside home.
Study of the energy supply of bicycle ergometric load in athletes and untrained persons with bronchopulmonary diseases (community-acquired pneumonia, bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and acute respiratory viral infections, to justify the timing of the resumption of training, as well as determination of the volume and intensity of physical activity in training and competitive processes.
The COVID-19 pandemic has been characterized by high morbidity and mortality, especially in certain subgroups of patients. To date, no treatment has been shown to be effective in controlling this disease in hospitalized patients with moderate and / or severe cases of this disease. Hydroxychloroquine and lopinavir / ritonavir have been shown to inhibit SARS-CoV viral replication in experimental severe acute respiratory symptoms models and have similar activity against SARS-CoV2. Although widely used in studies of critically ill patients, to date, no study has demonstrated its role on the treatment of high-risk, newly diagnosed patients with COVID-19 and mild symptoms.
