Filter by:Lung ultrasound has been used to help diagnose COVID-19 as an alternative to CT scanning and chest X-ray. CT scanning is onerous and there are difficulties taking critically unwell patients there as well as decontamination issues. Chest X-ray misses up to 40% of COVID diagnoses. Although lung ultrasound can diagnose, the investigators do not know how long these lung ultrasound changes last. The investigators would like to follow up patients to characterise the pattern of changes and how long they last. This is particularly important given a potential second surge of COVID-19 is looming and the investigators would like to know if lung ultrasound changes are new or old in patients presenting during this second wave and in the future.
Our current focus is to reduce the spread of COVID through distribution of Rapid Antigen Test Kits (ATKs) to low-income, high-risk communities across Bangkok. Hospitals across Thailand have been operating over capacity for many months, both in receiving the high number of cases as well as in testing for COVID. RT PCR, although highly sensitive, requires potentially infectious people to travel to testing sites, wait in line, and takes 1-2 days to return results, leading to further spread of COVID through increased contact with other high-risk individuals. On the contrary, testing via an Antigen Test Kit (ATK) can be done by everyone at home with the potential to test more frequently than the PCR test due to much cheaper cost. This means that ATK testing can be mixed into people's daily lifestyle, but another underlying reason is that ATKs only show test results as positive only when an infected person is contagious. Another key advantage is the rapid results, which helps people identify risks quickly, limiting spread even faster. Our trial therefore aims to achieve the following primary objective: To monitor the results of freely distribute ATKs in real environments to measure its effectiveness in reducing COVID spread in communities by comparing the incidence of COVID-19 between communities with rapid antigen tests and without rapid antigen tests. Secondary objectives are: 1. To compare the incidence of severe COVID-19 between communities with rapid antigen tests and without rapid antigen tests. 2. To study the decrease in incidence of community-acquired COVID-19 in communities with rapid antigen tests. 3. To study factors affecting community-acquired COVID-19 in these communities. 4. To campaign for the government to recognize the importance and effectiveness of weekly testing, and propose suitable strategies to fight COVID.

Multi-center multinational-controlled study in Israel, Brazil, Spain, and South-Africa. 240 adult patients who suffer from moderate COVID-19 infection. Safety will be assessed through collection and analysis of adverse events, blood and urine laboratory assessments and vital signs. After Screening visit, the study drug will be administrated twice a day morning and evening (every 12 hours) during (day 1 and day 2) The patients will be randomized in 1:1:1 ratio to study drug (CimetrA) in two dosages in addition to Standard of Care - Arm 1, 2 or (Placebo) in addition to Standard of Care- Arm 3.
This research; The Turkish validity and reliability study of the "Coronavirus Impact Scale" developed by Stoddard and Kaufman (2020) will be conducted in order to bring a new measurement tool to our country.
The purposes of this study are to demonstrate the non-inferiority (NI) of the neutralizing antibody response to the original strain 14 days after booster vaccination with Ad26.COV2.S at the different dose levels, administered greater than or equal to (>=) 6 months after single-dose primary vaccination with Ad26.COV2.S, compared to the neutralizing antibody response to the original strain induced by single-dose primary vaccination with Ad26.COV2.S; To demonstrate the NI of the neutralizing antibody response to the leading variant of high consequence or concern 14 days after booster vaccination with Ad26.COV2.S at the 5*10^10 virus particle (vp) dose level, administered >= 6 months after single-dose primary vaccination with Ad26.COV2.S (5*10^10 vp dose level), compared to the neutralizing antibody response to the leading variant of high consequence or concern induced by single-dose primary vaccination with Ad26.COV2.S at the 5*10^10 vp dose level, if feasible; To demonstrate the NI of the neutralizing antibody response to the original strain 14 days after booster vaccination with Ad26.COV2.S at the different dose levels administered >=6 months after completing a 2-dose primary vaccination with Pfizer BNT162b2, compared to the neutralizing antibody response to the original strain induced by 2-dose primary vaccination with Pfizer BNT162b2; To demonstrate the NI of neutralizing antibody response to the leading variant of high consequence or concern 14 days after booster vaccination with Ad26.COV2.S at the 5*10^10 vp dose level, administered >= 6 months after completing a 2-dose primary vaccination with Pfizer BNT162b2, compared to the neutralizing antibody response to the leading variant of high consequence or concern induced by 2-dose primary vaccination with Pfizer BNT162b2, if feasible.
The recently emerged coronavirus named Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV-2) is the newest threat to human health. It has already infected more than half a million people worldwide, leading to a lot of deaths. Patients with Coronavirus Disease 2019(COVID-19) will experience high levels of anxiety and low sleep quality due to isolation treatment. Purposes: Was to investigate the effect of aerobics and balancing exercises on anxiety and dizziness in patients with COVID-19. Subjects: Thirty anxiety and dizziness patients with COVID-19 aged from 45-65 years of both sexes, randomly divided into two groups, selected from outpatient clinic ,General
The syndrome characterized by the persistence of symptoms typical of COVID-19, beyond 4 weeks after discharge, is called long COVID. Long COVID affects a high percentage of patients who have suffered from COVID-19, regardless of its severity. The various symptoms present in that patients affect the functionality and physical, mental and psychological capacities of patients. Therefore, it is necessary to implement therapeutic programs, based on exercises and techniques of physiotherapy, to help affected people to resume their work, family, social and sports activities; prior to illness. Given the context in which these programs must be developed, telecare is positioned as the most recommended care method to carry out the rehabilitation of these patients. The general objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a cardiorespiratory tele-rehabilitation program in persistent COVID-19 patients. Study participants (n=60) will be randomly assigned to one of two intervention groups. Group 1 will combine breathing exercises with aerobic exercise: walk; and group 2 will perform functional exercises in addition to respiratory physiotherapy with. All participants will be evaluated at the beginning of the intervention, at the end of it.
NDV-HXP-S is an inactivated COVID-19 vectored-vaccine virus using the Newcastle Disease Virus as basis and expressing S protein from SARS-CoV-2 stabilized in pre-fusion form with Hexapro technology. This vaccine was successfully tested in non-clinical study with a good safety profile and eliciting neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2. Clinical testing is conducted by an international consortium including three different manufacturers. Butantan, in Brazil, is one of them.
The IN2COVID Study is a 2-staged phase I/II double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AP-003 (Interferon α2b) when administered via inhalation twice daily for 10 days. Participants will have a final visit at Day 11. A lead-in phase 1 substudy will be performed with at least 18 healthy adult male subjects to assess safety and tolerability of inhaled AP-003 compared to placebo for 10 days. Two cohorts of 9 subjects will be randomly assigned to receive two doses of inhaled AP-003 or placebo with an allocation ratio of 2:1. The first cohort will assess a dose of 2.5 MIU of inhaled AP-003. If no adverse events are observed, the second cohort will be conducted using a dose of 5 MIU of inhaled AP-003. Maximum tolerated dose will be determined in this phase 1 substudy. After the completion of phase 1, the study will continue with a phase 2 treatment RCT in patients with COVID-19. In this phase, 150 adults with mild or moderate COVID-19 demonstrated by SARS-CoV-2 positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) ≤ 5 days at enrollment will be randomized 1:1 (75 in each arm) to receive nebulized AP-003 or identical placebo twice daily during 10 days.
