Filter by:The purpose of the study is to confirm if BACTEK-R (MV130) provides clinical benefit in subject with mild pneumonia (CURB-65≤2) by COVID-19 admitted to the Hospital.
Covid-19 infection is an on-going pandemic with worse diagnosis in adults with comorbid conditions such as hypertension and cardiopulmonary diseases. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in those comorbidities and may contribute to worse prognosis for the Covid-19 cases.
The aim of this study is to report our experience with ceftolozane-tazobactam and to evaluate its safety and efficacy in the treatment of ICU dependent nosocomial respiratory tract infections due to extensively drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Different dosing regimes of ceftalozane-tazobactam is evaluated and compared to the standard therapy of Colomycin.
The primary objective of this study is to assess whether the use of lenzilumab in addition to current standard of care can alleviate the immune-mediated cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and improve ventilator-free survival in hospitalized subjects with severe or critical COVID-19 pneumonia.
A previous study showed a high incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia to multidrug resistant pathogens in our ICU. That has been related to lack of compliance to hand hygiene among health care providers in ou ICU.
In absence of vaccine and medications specifically designed to treat SARS-CoV-2 disease, identifying treatment options is critical at this time to control the disease outbreak. For this, we have designed a phase II trial of efficacy and safety with 3 branches of different combinations of treatment to identify which is the best early treatment option for patients with pneumonia due to SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) Identifying treatment options as early as possible is critical to the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak response. Currently, there is no approved vaccine for the disease and the treatments being used are not specifically designed for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, but are different groups of drugs used for other pathologies with mechanisms of action that justify their use because they inhibit entry of the virus into virus cells or proteases. The study aims to compare Imatinib 400mg, Baricitinib 4mg or supportive treatment, administered for 7 days in the setting of SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia treatment. Patients who meet inclusion criteria and do not have any exclusion criteria will be randomized to receive open treatment 1:1:1
The main manifestation of COVID-19 is acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF). In patients with AHRF, the need for invasive mechanical ventilation is associated with high mortality. Two hypotheses will be tested in this study. The first hypothesis is the benefit of corticosteroid therapy on severe COVID-19 infection admitted in ICU in terms of survival. The second hypothesis is that, in the subset of patients free of mechanical ventilation at admission, either Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) or High-Flow Nasal Oxygen (HFNO) allows to reduce intubation rate safely during COVID-19 related acute hypoxemic respiratory failure.
Healthcare professionals mainly doctors, nurses and their first degree relatives (spouse, father, mother, sister, brother, child) who have been started hydroxychloroquine(plaquenil) 200mg single dose repeated every three weeks plus vitaminC including zinc once a day were included in the study. Study has conducted on 20th of march. Main purpose of the study was to cover participants those who are facing or treating COVID19 infected patients in Ankara.
This study project includes a single-arm phase 2 study and a parallel cohort study, enrolling patients with COVID-19 pneumonia.
In a Phase 2 Simon's Optimal Two-Stages Design intravenous tocilizumab will be administered as single 8mg/Kg dose in patients affected by severe multifocal interstitial pneumonia correlated to SARS-CoV2 infection. Aim of the study is to test the hypothesis that an anti-IL6 treatment can be effective in calming the virus-induced cytokine storm, blocking deterioration of lung function or even promoting a rapid improvement of clinical conditions, preventing naso-tracheal intubation and/or death.
