Filter by:Since the end of 2019, Egypt and the whole world have been suffering from the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, which is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). According to the World Health Organization (WHO), since the emergence of this new pandemic, there have been more than 97 million confirmed cases of COVID-19 patients and two million death globally; around 160 thousand of these cases are in Egypt. Recent clinical investigations found a high incidence of thrombotic complications in these patients, even with the standard anticoagulant thromboprophylaxis.Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) causes a hypercoagulable state. Among the pathological sequel of COVID-19 infection, is the presence of a micro-thrombi in the pulmonary circulation which was shown in several autopsy studies. This thrombosis is believed to contribute to gas exchange impairment among patients with COVID-19 infection. Some observational studies have shown anticoagulation benefits with reduced mortality, mainly in patients requiring mechanical ventilation. However, these findings remain uncertain and need to be validated in further studies. This study is performed to evaluate whether therapeutic anticoagulation could improve COVID-19 patients' clinical outcomes compared to prophylactic anticoagulation in terms of improving gas exchange, reducing the need to maintain mechanical ventilation, shortening hospital admission period and mortality rate as well as recovering D-dimmer levels to its normal values.
It is an interventional study in which 60 obese elderly patients (30 male & 30 female) estimated to enroll according to random allocation and divided into two groups. The study group will receive active acupuncture low level laser in addition to nasal laser irradiation and aerobic exercises while the control group will aerobic exercises. The laser consists of a semiconductor and operates at a wavelength of 650 nanometre. The laser installed in the watch comprises 10 individual laser beams for the wrist and an additional adapter for nasal stimulation. The output power is 5 megawatt, but it can also be adjusted. The device operates at an ambient temperature of -20 to +40 ° C and a relative humidity of ≤ 85%. The laser watch can be used for a variable irradiation period of 10-60 min. the device will be applied on specific acupuncture points ( acupuncture point, Radial artery acupuncture points, and ulnar artery acupuncture points) combined with nasal laser irradiation at the same time, once per day, 3 times per week for three months
The HETHICO study aims to collect retrospectively documented clinical information on patients hospitalized in Veneto Region (Italy) for SARS-COVID-2 infection in 2 types of settings, medical environment (COORTE MED), and intensive / sub-intensive (COORTE ICU), to assess the safety and possible efficacy of the anticoagulant treatments used for thromboprophylaxis, or in preventing thrombotic complications related to hospitalization from COVID-19.
Investigators hypothesized that the impact of surgery in terms of inducing a hypercoagulable state is more evident in morbidly obese pregnant women as opposed to their non-obese counterparts. The aim of this study is to investigate the change in coagulation status of morbidly obese and non-obese pregnant women following cesarean section delivery using thromboelastometry. This observational study would also make it possible to calculate the sample size for a future prospective controlled clinical trial to compare the incidence of Hypercoagulability in morbidly obese parturients as opposed to their non-obese counterparts. To the best of our knowledge, no other work has been done any in this area.
