Filter by:As the fifth wave of COVID-19 comes to an end and the pandemic's countermeasures expire, there is a need to assess the impact of the pandemic on health care providers, especially midwives, as the professionals deputed to promote and protect women's holistic health, in all phases, physiological and otherwise, of the life cycle. The midwife considers the person as a whole, in which the mind-body-culture components interact profoundly. Prevention and containment measures have impacted on midwifery clinical and nursing practices with the mandatory continuous use of personal protective equipments (PPE) and social distancing to protect the patient and the practitioner, effectively hindering the intimacy of the woman-midwife relationship. The impact assessment focuses on two dimensions: learning, investigated as perceived empowerment, and perceived malaise, investigated as burnout. Empowerment has a positive connotation, which can offset burnout, a syndrome that affects the physical, psychological and emotional health of midwives and can have significant negative implications on midwife turnover, patient safety and outcomes, and the efficiency of healthcare organisations.
This is an experimental study without drug and device, non-profit, single-center. The general objective of the project is to study how the adaptive immune response evolves against SARS-CoV-2 with repeated vaccination boosters and infections also in relation to the evolution of variations. This study will be relevant to frail populations who are the main targets of repeated vaccinations. Our project will benefit from the availability of a highly cohort characterized of vaccinated people, including cancer patients and elderly people, with prospective collection of samples for an in-depth evaluation of the evolution of the immune response with repeated exposure to doses of infection or vaccine. As part of the study, analyzes will be carried out on samples of patients enrolled in a manner prospective at the oncology departments of the IRCCS (Medical Oncology, Department of Radiotherapy advanced oncology and nuclear medicine) and elderly patients residing in retirement homes of the IRCCS. Patients will also be asked for consent to store any residual samples in the Tropica DITM Biobank.
The prospective, longitudinal, open observational study monitors patients with cognitive and neuropsychological symptoms after COVID-19 infection, in a longitudinal manner to see how the disease has affected their physical, psychological and cognitive function, their ability to be active, return to work, their health-related quality of life in correlation with potential diagnostic and prognostic markers.
The CDC describes Post-acute sequelae of SARS-COV-2 infection (PASC) for the wide range of physical and mental health consequences experienced by some patients. These sequelae may be present four or more weeks after SARS-COV-2 infection, including patients who had initial mild or asymptomatic acute infection. However, there is complete absence of data whether chronic sleep changes due to COVID-19 infection may influence these physical and mental health consequences. While fatigue is one of the common post-COVID conditions, there are no systematic examinations of sleep disturbances in COVID-19 survivors. This will be a pilot observational retrospective and prospective cohort study, to systematically assess if sleep disturbances and severity of sleep apnea comprise a modifiable facet of PASC as well as the short-term and longer-term effects of COVID-19 infection itself on sleep, cognitive function, exercise capacity and lung function.
This is an open label, phase III trial - immunobridging study. There will be only 1 group in the study. All subjects (12 to 17 years old) will receive INAVAC 5 µg dose. The vaccine will be administered with 2-dose schedule, intramuscularly, with 28 day interval. All subjects will be followed for 12 months. INAVAC is an inactivated vaccine made of SARS-CoV-2 virus isolated from a patient in Surabaya, composed with aluminium hydroxy gel, tween 80, and L-histidine, and this study will be the first phase III in adolescents.
Descriptive, retrospective, observational, anonymous, study to evaluate the potential effect of incorporating calcifediol into the therapeutic protocol of patients hospitalized for COVID-19 on mortality and other outcome variables, such as admission to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), to "Gerencia de Atención Integrada (GAI) de Albacete". "Complejo Hospitalario Universitario de Albacete". Albacete (Spain)", based on the files of the MXXI medical records, Information System of the Laboratory (ISL) and Pharmacy.
There is no cure for cold or flu, most people recover in about within two weeks. Paracetamol may be used to reduce aches or treat fever, headache, or body aches. Antiviral solutions ranging from simple universal saline solutions to novel compounds have been proposed to provide a temporary barrier to prevent viral infection and propagation. The nasal spray "Humer Stop Virus" is indicated in patients presented with early symptoms of viral respiratory infection. This spray forms a protective barrier in the nasal mucosa which is the main entry of the upper air respiratory system viruses. The spray traps the viruses and helps the organism to eliminate them before they multiply themselves. This clinical investigation is conducted to assess the performance, clinical benefit and safety of this nasal spray in patients with early symptoms of acute respiratory disease whether or not infection is related to common cold, flu or COVID virus. Indeed, presence of early symptoms of acute respiratory infection does not always imply viral infectionAntigen self-tests are available to confirm viral infection with flu viruses or severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2). However, influenza and other winter viruses are not systematically searched for in general population, because this is of neither collective nor individual interest. To be as pragmatic as possible, we chose to assess performance and safety of the nasal spray on intended users in real conditions. Patients with early symptoms of cold, flu or COVID, are enrolled regardless their PCR test positivity confirming viral infection at the time of enrollment. For study needs, the primary endpoint, which aims to assess the performance of the nasal spray in terms of stopping the viral infection, is assessed in a subgroup of patients with a positive PCR test with flu, COVID or common cold virus in the nasal sample collected at enrollment.
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) which is caused by the virus SARS-CoV-2 has resulted in an ongoing global pandemic. It is unclear whether the relatively low number of reported cases of COVID-19 in people with CF (pwCF) is due to enhanced infection prevention practices or whether pwCF have protective genetic/immune factors. This study aims to prospectively assess the proportion of pwCF, including both adults and children with CF who have evidence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies over a two-year period. This study will also examine whether pwCF who have antibodies for SARS-CoV-2 have a different clinical presentation and what impact this has on their CF disease. The proposed study will recruit pwCF from paediatric and adult CF centres in Europe. Serological testing to detect antibodies will be performed on blood samples taken at month 0, 6, 12, 18 and 24 with additional time-points if bloodwork is available via normal clinical care. Clinical data on, lung function, CF-related medical history, pulmonary exacerbations, antibiotic use, and microbiology and vaccination receipt, will be collected during routine clinical assessments. Associations will be examined between socio-demographic and clinical variables and serologic testing. The effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection on clinical outcomes and analyse end-points will be examined to explore any age-related or gender-based differences, as well as subgroup analysis of outcomes in lung-transplant recipients and pwCF receiving CFTR modulator therapies. As pwCF receive COVID-19 vaccination a comparison of the development and progression of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in pwCF following natural infection and vaccination SARS-CoV-2 over time will be performed.
The goal of this study is to study the correlation of maternal and cord blood level of Anti SAR-CoV.
The goal of this open-label clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of INAVAC (Vaksin Merah Putih - UNAIR SARS-CoV-2 (Vero Cell Inactivated)) Vaccine as Homologue Booster in Adult Subjects in Indonesia. The main question it aims to answer is: "To evaluate the humoral immunogenicity profile at 28 days following vaccination with INAVAC vaccine as homolog booster administered intramuscularly in healthy adults age 18 years and above". Participants will be administered one dose of vaccination for the third dose (booster vaccination) intramuscularly.
