Filter by:In March 2020 the World Health Organization declares the Coronavirus disease pandemic 2019. Intensive Care Units deal entirely with patients with pneumonia complicated by Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, requiring aggressive respiratory treatments with long periods of connection to mechanical ventilation, sedation and immobilization, contributing to the onset of acquired critical patient muscle weakness (IAPD). IUCD is a frequent complication in intensive care units, with an incidence of 11-67%¹. Of multifactorial cause, immobilization or "bed-rest", the use of corticosteroids and neuromuscular blocking agents have been described as factors directly related to this syndrome. Several studies have shown that mobilization of the patient with acute respiratory distress syndrome, even with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, is safe, feasible and beneficial for the patient. Bedside cyclo-ergometry has been associated with a reduction in the degree of sarcopenia, contributing to the recovery of the critically ill patient. Several studies document that bed cyclo-ergometry is safe and feasible in critically ill patients within the first week of admission to intensive care, but few clinical trials exist.
This first-in-human clinical trial is designed to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of one administration of OVX033 coronavirus vaccine at different dose levels (100µg, 250µg and 500µg)
During the COVID-19 pandemic, testing primarily relied on the use of nasopharyngeal swabs to detect the SARS-CoV-2 virus, responsible for the disease. However, this technique has several limitations, including the variable quality of swabs, its invasive nature, and arbitrariness in the choice of the number of cycles. Furthermore, it does not allow for the detection of viral proteins. To overcome these limitations, researchers developed the eBAM-CoV test, patented for the detection of viral proteins in the exhaled air of COVID-19 patients. This portable device provides an immediate assessment of the "viral load" with both quantitative and qualitative results, showing promise for early virus detection. The researchers hypothesize that the eBAM-CoV test is likely to exhibit a satisfactory concordance with the reference RT-PCR test in the detection of COVID-19, especially among symptomatic patients or closed contacts.
Popular title: Clinical study of Omicron BA.4/5-Delta strain recombinant novel coronavirus protein vaccine (CHO cells). Purpose of the study: Main objectives: To evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of Omicron BA.4/5-Delta strain recombinant novel coronavirus protein vaccine (CHO cells) against the new coronavirus prototype strain and Omicron variant (XBB, BA.5, BF.7) after receiving 2 doses according to different immunization schedules in people aged 18 years and older. Secondary purposes: To evaluate the immune persistence of Omicron BA.4/5-Delta recombinant novel coronavirus protein vaccine (CHO cells) against the new coronavirus prototype strain and Omicron variant (XBB, BA.5, BF.7) after receiving 2 doses according to different immunization schedules in people aged 18 years and older. Overall design: Studies were randomized, double-blind, active-controlled study design. Study group: There were 160 participants aged 18 years and older, including 80 people aged 60 years and older. Study group：Among them, 80 subjects were from the "randomized, double-blind, active-controlled clinical study to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of Omicron BA.4/5-Delta strain recombinant novel coronavirus protein vaccine (CHO cells) in people aged 18 years and older, protocol number: LKM-2023-NCV-02", 40 cases in the study group and 40 cases in the control group, and completed the second dose of vaccine at the 6th month visit to observe immunogenicity and safety. The remaining 80 subjects were randomly blinded to the 1:1 ratio into the research group and the control group and received 2 doses of the experimental vaccine according to the 0-1-month procedure to observe immunogenicity and safety.
Aerosol Generating Medical Procedures (AGMP) are procedures that have the potential to create tiny particles suspended in the air. These particles can contain germs such as viruses. The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic was caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 experience unusually high rates of critical illness that needs advanced airway management and intensive care unit admission. Bag-valve-mask (BVM) ventilation, endotracheal Intubation (ETI) and chest compressions are sometimes required for critically ill COVID-19 patients, and may contribute to a high risk of infection amongst Health Care Workers (HCW). To lessen HCW risk during high-risk procedures, a device called an aerosol box has been developed to place over the head of the patient, shielding the provider's face from virus droplets suspended in the air. The purpose of this research study is to better understand how particles disperse during AGMPs, more specifically during the provision of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The project team hopes what is learned from the project can help inform infection control measures. This could help make changes to the clinical environment and make it safer for HCW's. The investigators intend to explore how an aerosol box performs in reducing contamination of HCW's who perform critical airway interventions during resuscitation events.

Overall design: Studies were randomized, double-blind, active, controlled study design. Study group: people aged 18 years and above who have completed primary immunization or booster immunization of the new coronavirus vaccine for more than 6 months. Study group: Randomly divided into study group and control group according to the 1:1 ratio, of which 225 subjects in the study group and 225 subjects in the control group were vaccinated with study vaccine and control vaccine respectively.
The study aims to investigate the safety and immunogenicity of one dose vs two doses of a T-cell priming next-generation vaccine against Coronavirus disease.
The patients with coronavirus infection usually have fever, respiratory symptoms, headache, toothache, muscle soreness, physical decline, and so on, while others are asymptomatic patients. It is urgent to find drugs to improve the long-term rehabilitation of symptomatic patients with coronavirus infection and decrease the duration of viral shedding in both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients. This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of Lianhua Qingwen capsules in patients with coronavirus infection. The duration of viral shedding and symptoms before discharge, as well as the negative conversion ratio and disappearance ratio of main symptoms after 7-day treatment, will be evaluated. 6-month follow-up will be performed to evaluate the effect of Lianhua Qingwen on all infection events and the long-term rehabilitation of the symptoms induced by coronavirus infection.

It is urgent to find drugs to improve the long-term rehabilitation of symptomatic patients with Omicron infection and decrease the duration of viral shedding in both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients. This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of Lianhua Qingke tablets in patients with Omicron infection. The duration of viral shedding and symptoms will be evaluated. 6-month follow-up will be performed to evaluate the effect of Lianhua Qingke on long-term rehabilitation of all symptoms induced by Omicron infection, as well as infection events.
Citizens who undergo testing for COVID-19 at one of two Testcenters in Copenhagen Captial Region will be invited to participate in the study. The participants will be randomized to either an oropharyngeal swap including the palatine tonsils OR an oropharyngeal swap without the palatine tonsils for SARS-CoV-2 testing. The swabs will be sent to the clinical microbiology laboratory for SARS-CoV-2 detection using RT-PCR. The diagnostic accuracy and SARS-CoV-2 viral load will be compared. The participants will be asked to complete a questionnaire regarding their symptoms.
