Ventilator Associated pneumonia (VAP) is associated with longer ICU length of stay, prolonged mechanical ventilation, and increased use of antimicrobials, health-care cost and mortality . Acute respiratory infections (ARIs) comprise a large and heterogeneous group of infections, including bacterial infections, viral infections, and infections of other etiologies. Early initiation of adequate antibiotic therapy is the cornerstone in the treatment. However, overuse of antibiotics and prolonged duration of antibiotic therapy in patients with bacterial ARIs in the hospital and intensive care setting is associated with increased resistance for common bacteria, high costs, and adverse drug reactions.
Multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel, blinded, interventional, treatment clinical trial with two arms. Population: 500 Hospitalized patients with pneumonia derived from COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease-19), either confirmed by RT-PCR (Real Time polymerase chain reaction), or suggested by typical findings on the computed tomography scan symptomatic. Experimental group: nitazoxanide 500mg 8 / 8 hours for 5 days. Control group: placebo 8/8 hours for 5 days.
Evaluate the safety pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (PK/PD)of a single dose of Kamada anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)- CoV-2 in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 caused pneumonia
Gastric emptying is a major risk factor for aspiration of gastric contents.Aspiration into the lungs represents a fatal complication that can occur during anesthesia. Not only gastric emptying importance to anesthetists is related to aspiration but also it is important to determine the systemic availability of substances given through the mouth. Delayed gastric emptying represents a major danger as it causes nausea and vomiting and prevents a return to oral feeding. Lastly it may cause morbidity and mortality. Both humoral and neural influences have their impact on emptying. Volume and composition of gastric food act as major determinants for the rate of gastric emptying. The effect of body weight on gastric emptying are inconsistent. ASA fasting guidelines application represents the primary method to avoid aspiration as it ensures that stomach is empty before induction of anesthesia. These guidelines cannot be applied on all cases as in urgent or emergent situations or in morbidities associated with delayed gastric emptying. Ultrasound can be used perioperatively to asses gastric content and volume at bedside.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the strategy of investigators for outpatients SARS-CoV-2 moderate pneumonia management in terms of efficacy and patient safety. The investigators ultimate goal is to validate first wave management strategy in order to support the investigators future approach in the event of a second wave, and spare the hospital resources by safely keeping at home as many patients as possible.
This is a randomized study that sought to compare the rule-out capacity and antibiotics prescriptions associated with two different diagnostic imaging strategies (ultra-low-dose chest computed tomography versus chest radiography) in a group of healthy adults presenting to the emergency department (ED) with suspected community-acquired pneumonia (CAP).
To determinate feasibility, safety and outcome with convalescent plasma in patients with severe COVID-19 penumonia
There are several clinical studies that mention the benefits of treatment with low-dose radiation therapy to patients with COVID 19, so this study protocol will be started to determine if there is clinical improvement with treatment and low-dose radiation therapy. to all the lung.
The innovative drug Treamid is planned for use in the rehabilitation of patients after COVID-19 pneumonia in a pilot, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase II clinical study to assess the efficacy and safety of Treamid, tablets, 50 mg in patients with fibrotic changes in the lungs after COVID-19 pneumonia during a 28-day treatment. The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the efficacy of Treamid tablet, 50 mg in change in forced vital capacity (FVC) and/or diffusing capacity of lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) at Week 4. The secondary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety of Treamid tablet, 50 mg and pharmacokinetics (PK).
