Filter by:This is an observational study to evaluate the effectiveness of the combinations Hydroxychloroquine + Azithromycin (HCQ-AZ) and Chloroquine + Azithromycin (CQ-AZ) in the treatment of Coronavirus (Covid-19) infection in Burkina Faso.
Coagulopathy of COVID-19 afflicts approximately 20% of patients with severe COVID-19 and is associated with need for critical care and death. COVID-19 coagulopathy is characterized by elevated D-dimer, an indicator of fibrin formation and clot lysis, and a mildly prolonged prothrombin time, suggestive of coagulation consumption. To date, it seems that COVID-19 coagulopathy manifests with thromboembolism, thus anticoagulation may be of benefit. We propose to conduct a parallel pragmatic multi-centre open-label randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of therapeutic anticoagulation compared to standard care in hospitalized patients admitted for COVID-19 with an elevated D-dimer.
the purpose of this study to evaluate the effect of early awake PP (prone position)application on oxygenation and intubation requirement in patients with acute respiratory failure due to coronavirus disease 2019 pneumonia.
People with cancer may be at higher risk of poor outcomes with COVID-19 infection. This observational study aims to describe the clinical course of COVID-19 infection in people with cancer and evaluate the utility of antibody and antigen tests for COVID-19. The results of this study will inform clinical practice in the management of cancer patients with COVID-19.
Various guidelines for endotracheal intubation (insertion of breathing tube for mechanical ventilation) of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients recommend the use of videolaryngoscope (medical device used for intubation that has a camera to visualize the vocal cords between which the breathing tube will pass) over direct laryngoscope (conventionally-used medical device for intubation that depends on anesthetist's direct visualization of vocal cords). The reasons for this recommendation are to maximize the distance between the medical personnel and the patient's face during intubation to decrease the risk of viral particles transmission and to improve intubation success. For patients infected with COVID-19, Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) is recommended as an alternative to N95 masks during aerosol-generating procedures such as intubation because N95 masks may not fully protect medical personnel from viral transmission during intubation. There is no evidence to suggest that videolaryngoscope (VL) is superior to direct laryngoscope (DL) for intubation when PAPR is donned. The purpose of this study is to determine if McGrath VL is superior to DL for intubation when the anesthetist is wearing a PAPR. The investigators' hypothesis is that McGrath VL will decrease the time to intubation by 20 seconds and more compared to DL when PAPR is donned. The investigators also hope to learn if there is any difference in the difficulties encountered between the use of VL and DL.
coronavirus disease 2019 related pneumonia is causing acute respiratory failure and this is the most common reason for ICU admission. We have several different way for respiratory support. HFNC is one of the new technics for oxygen support. Our main purpose to observe the effect of HFNC on coronavirus disease 2019 patients' ICU stay and mortality.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficiency of an assembled modified mask in protecting health care workers against Coronavirus in case of any personal protective equipment shortage. At least 20 healthy participants will be recruited to try the modified mask. The modified masks will be made from masks that are already available as well as filters available in the pulmonary department at the Oklahoma City VA Health Care System
According to epidemiological models, the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in Île-de-France as of 11 May was between 10 and 15%. Preliminary data on the number of professionals evicted from nurseries on suspicion of COVID-19 (on clinical grounds) seem to be of the same order of magnitude, but need to be confirmed by a biological technique. Children would be susceptible to infection but often asymptomatic.
Critically ill patients with COVID-19 have hospitalized in an ICU due to the closer monitoring and therapy. In fact, ICU admissions are dependent on the severity of illness and the ICU capacity of the health-care system. Hence, it may be need a new scoring system for contagious critically ill patients.
To find out what adaptations have been made by Inflammatory bowel disease physicians and patients in relation to therapies in flaring IBD patients during severe acute respiratory syndrome 2-COV and what the impact of these is on IBD patients with no symptomatic COVID-19 and in suspected/confirmed COVID-19. Also whether there any IBD related factors impacting the outcome of patients with COVID-19 symptoms or COVID-19 disease
