Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether the intervention of probiotics supplement can improve symptoms of long covid syndrome. Participants will be given probiotics or placebo capsules for two month. Symptom questionnaires, cognitive function, eeg and fecal sample are recorded/collected before and after the supplement. Researchers will compare the probiotic group and the placebo to see if probiotic supplement really make differences.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), as of mid-September 2022, more than 21 million Brazilians have recovered from COVID-19. However, post-infection symptoms continue to appear months after the end of the acute infection, a syndrome called long COVID. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the responses of fascia-focused manual therapy in participants with long COVID.
Tracheostomy is a medical procedure performed on the front of a persons neck. It is used to create a connection between the persons trachea and a mechanical ventilator instead of using a tube going through the mouth into the trachea, oral intubation. Living with a tracheostomy tube is less stressful compared to oral intubation and facilitate being awake and the start of training on spontaneous ventilation in mechanically ventilated patients. Studies of the timing of tracheostomy are either severely affected by methodological bias of to small to determine an effect. Thus, it is not known what the optimal timing of the tracheostomy is in mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients.
Sleep is an important modulator of the immune response, whereby sleep disturbances (ie, poor sleep quality, insufficient sleep and/or primary sleep disorder, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)) contribute to inflammatory disease risk and dysregulation of immune response in front of infectious agents. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of undiagnosed and non-treated sleep disorders on innate immunity in a cohort of COVID-19 patients and the role of trained immunity induced by influenza vaccination in the innate immune response.
Assess the incidence and rates of resistant pathogens prior to and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Covid-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit of Selcuk University Hospital were included in the study. Clinical frailty score was given during admission to the intensive care unit. Demographic data, laboratory data, radiological imaging and vital signs of the patients were recorded. Treatment and patient positions were recorded during the intensive care follow-up of the patients. Mortality status of the patients 6 months after admission to the ICU was recorded.
Burn injuries were thought to be difficult to treat during the new corona virus epidemic. Our goal is to determine the risk factors that influence length of hospital stay (LOS) of burn injured patients during COVID -19 pandemic.
Diaphragm is the principal muscle of inspiration. Diaphragmatic dysfunction is seen in many conditions including following intubation, lung disease, prolonged ventilation, neuromuscular disease, phrenic nerve injury. The possible mechanisms of diaphragmatic dysfunction in patients with COVID19 are critical illness myopathy, ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction, iatrogenic phrenic nerve injury particularly secondary to line placement, post-infectious inflammatory neuropathy of the phrenic nerve, or possibly direct neuromuscular involvement of the SARS- CoV-2 virus given expression of the angiotensin- converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor in the peripheral nervous system and skeletal muscle. The use of diaphragmatic ultrasound has been widely used to assess diaphragmatic function is well known in patients following prolonged mechanical ventilation. Prolonged mechanical ventilation leads to contractile dysfunction of respiratory muscles, in particular the diaphragm, causing a so-called ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction. The latter is defined as a loss of diaphragm force-generating capacity specifically related to the use of mechanical ventilation. However, the use of diaphragmatic Ultrasound to assess its function in Long COVID patients has not been noted and is a gap in the work up of these patients. The purpose of this study is to address Diaphragmatic Dysfunctional (DD) breathing seen in patients with Post-Acute Sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC), which results in shortness of breath/chest tightness and subsequent fatigue. Targeting shortness of breath and subsequent fatigue as a central symptom of PASC will alleviate long term sequelae for the patients with PASC. DD will be addressed by a unique intervention of physical therapy. The goal of this prospective randomized clinical study will be to evaluate the comparative treatment effect of DB on markers, specifically fatigue, dyspnea, 6 min walk test, depression/anxiety, and quality of life (QoL).
Observation study, shows the relation between musckeloskeletal symptoms with during and post Covid-19 infection, by asking participants questions about there age,job,which vaccination covid participants took, residual area, social status, number of time of covid-19 infection, number of joint affected and duration of joint pain and asking if there any malaise or fatigue
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the clinical characteristics and construction of a predictive model in elderly COVID-19 patients. The main question it aims to answer is the main clinical characteristics and risk factors of elderly COVID-19 patients. Participants will not be asked to do any other intervening measure.
