Filter by:Randomized, double-blind prospective trial to test the efficacy of therapeutic, antiseptic mouth rinses to inactivate severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) in saliva of COVID-19 positive patients aged 18-65 years old. All mouthrinses are commercially available and will be used according to on-label instructions. Patients will be randomized to a mouthrinse and will be asked to give a saliva sample immediately before and after a one minute mouthwash. Saliva samples will be collected from patients at 15 minute intervals thereafter up to an hour (15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes). The samples will be stored and used for real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) detection of viral SARS-CoV-2 RNA and viral infectivity assays. Patients will also complete a short-survey on the taste and experience of using the mouthwash. This study involves 150 subject participants and one, 75-90 minute visit.
We aim to study if metabolic intensity and extent according to pathologic pulmonary 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG)-uptake may correlate with the course of COVID-19 pneumonia and potentially yield prognostic value. Moreover, we aim to assess permanent changes after Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, such as pulmonary fibrosis and neuropsychiatric symptoms (anosmia, depression, fatigue) where evaluation with FDG-positron emission tomography (PET/CT) might have an impact on further patient care.
Establish a biorepository, clinical data registry, and radiographic image database from individuals who were COVID positive at one time and are being seen for outpatient follow-up or a separate study visit.
This is a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of ivermectin in reducing the risk of progression to severe disease and hospitalizations in COVID-19 patients.
The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome CoronaVirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a rapidly spreading infection of the respiratory tract. Most infected patients have either asymptomatic disease or mild symptoms. However, a proportion of patients, especially elderly men or patients with comorbidities, are at risk of developing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). ARDS, alongside clotting abnormalities, is known to be a major contributor to SARS-CoV-2-related mortality and admission to intensive care units, with evidenced effective preventative treatment options lacking. In this study, the investigators test a novel hypothesis that the use of a combination of spironolactone and dexamethasone at low doses will improve the clinical progression of the infection evaluated by the 6-point ordinal scale in patients with moderate and severe disease by blocking exocytosis of the Weibel-Palade bodies from endothelial cells.
For the last years, studies have described the " Post-intensive care Syndrome " (PICS), which consists in alteration of quality of life, cognition, autonomy and psychological disorders within the months after intensive-care. Patients with COVID-19 in intensive care units are at high risks to develop PICS. The primary objective is to analyse the incidence of the post-traumatic stress disorder at 12 months after intensive-care for a COVID-19 Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).
Severe pneumoniae related to Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), had a high in-hospital mortality; this condition are worst in subjects with acute kidney disease (AKI); conditioning increased mortality, days of assisted mechanical ventilation (AMV), increased nosocomial infections and high costs. We need many studies for determinated the risk factors for AKI in subjects with COVID-19. This study pretends identify the incidence of AKI in subjects with severe pneumoniae by COVID-19, describe the role of some biomarkers in the physiopathology of AKI-COVID-19; and determine the evolution of urinary biomarkers during hospitalization, like neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2), insulin-like growth factor binding protein-7 (IGFBP7), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) and the progression of viruria of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) related to CoronaVirus 2 (CoV2) in subjects with or without AKI.
The C-MORE study is prospective observational holistic longitudinal study which will characterise the prevalence of multi-organ injury among COVID-19 survivors post hospital discharge and assess its effects on quality of life, exercise tolerance and mental health.
The McMaster Multi-Regional Hospital Coronavirus Registry (COREG) is a platform that is collecting detailed case data on laboratory confirmed COVID-19 hospital inpatients and outpatients. The COREG platform will provide rapid high-quality evidence to improve the prevention and clinical management of COVID-19 for older adults in Canada, and internationally. The COREG platform will also provide researchers and partners with complete regional level clinical data on COVID-19 cases to inform rapid decision-making and projections, sub-studies, extensions, and linkage for all affected populations.
The outbreak of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and the COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease-2019) in December 2019 has led to an unprecedented international health situation. Exceptional measures have been taken by public authorities worldwide in order to slow the spread of the virus and prevent healthcare systems from becoming overloaded. In France, a national lockdown has been established during approximately 2 months to increase social distancing and restrict population movements. Hospital routine care appointments have been cancelled, in order to reallocate medical resources towards COVID-19 units and limit contacts between patients within hospitals or waiting rooms. While the virus itself, the disease and potential treatments are currently extensively studied, little data are available on the effect of these public health decisions on the management of a chronic condition such as diabetes. The French regional CONFI-DIAB study aims at assessing the collateral impact of routine care cancellation during the national lockdown due to COVID-19 in patients with a chronic condition such as diabetes. Special attention will be given to metabolic control and access to health care. This cross-sectional study should provide information on the consequences of a global lockdown and the associated routine care cancellation on the management of diabetes, and inform future decision making in the event of a new pandemic.
