Filter by:Critical care echocardiography (CCE) has been widely used since the 10 last years. Covid outbreak leads that many patients with acute respiratory failure were admitted in the ICU. Many of these patients were ventilated and developed ARDS. Some of them developed deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. Nothing is already described about the cardiac function and the hemodynamics in these patients (how many RV failure, LV systolic dysfunction,...). The echo group of the cardiodynamix section of European society of intensive care medicien (ESICM) aims to promote CCE and evaluate its interest. The objective is to retrospectively enter in an international database all the echo studies done as usual care in these patients to evaluate (i) incidence of RV failure, (ii) incidence of LV systolic function, (iii) incidence of other patterns. Another objective will be to look for any association between some patterns and respiratory strategy, blood gas analysis, systemic hemodynamics. The echo studies were done and will be reported following one of the recent systematic review published by the same group (Huang S et al. AOIC 2020).
According to epidemiological models, the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in Île-de-France as of 11 May was between 10 and 15%. Preliminary data on the number of professionals evicted from nurseries on suspicion of COVID-19 (on clinical grounds) seem to be of the same order of magnitude, but need to be confirmed by a biological technique. Children would be susceptible to infection but often asymptomatic.
Current management of VID-19 consists of oxygen support without specific treatment. Hospitalization may suddenly require delayed resuscitation. This evolution corresponds to an atypical acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), the mechanism of which is poorly understood and difficult to predict. The general pathophysiology of ARDS, the vascular tropism of SARS-Cov2, the description of coagulopathy and numerous pulmonary artery thromboses in resuscitation and the encouraging investigation of antithrombotics in general ARDS
The purpose of this research is to see if Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG) can help reduce respiratory complications (respiratory failure and need for a ventilator) caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The principal investigator has successfully utilized IVIG for patients infected with the influenza virus. The investigator wants to find out if IVIG is equally effective in COVID-19 infection patients, and if IVIG will give the immune system some help to clear the infection naturally.
This is an open-label, multicenter, parallel-group, randomized, phase III trial that evaluates the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine and favipiravir in the treatment of patients with possible or confirmed COVID-19 observed within the last 5 days. 1000 patients will be randomized in 2:1:2:2:2:1 ratio and divided into six groups.

COVID-19 is a pathology linked to the SARS-CoV-2 virus, a new virus of the coronaviridae family that emerged in China in December 2019 before rapidly becoming a pandemic according to the WHO on March 11, 2020. The epidemic affected France from February 2020. On February 24, a patient hospitalized at Percy hospital was the cause of a major nosocomial epidemic, potentially responsible for more than 250 symptomatic people in the hospital as of April 6. The outbreak was identified by Percy hospital management on March 16, and barrier measures were immediately put in place. From March 20, a mixed investigation unit set up a chain of nasopharyngeal swabs for Percy hospital staff. A COVID-19 case reporting unit was set up at Percy hospital in response to the identification of the outbreak within the hospital. This unit carried out rapid identification and regular follow-up until the return to work of the staff. Thus all symptomatic patients are identified and the COVID-19 case census cell will follow all Percy hospital staff, including volunteers recruited to deal with the epidemic, throughout the duration of the epidemic. This population, captive by nature, will be one of the few described in the world during this epidemic. Current data on short-, medium- and long-term immunity induced by COVID-19 infection are fragmentary, as is the existence of a large asymptomatic population, making it difficult to cut the chains of transmission in the absence of an effective diagnostic tool. Another important issue is the quality of immunity induced by the infection, as it conditions the future of the pandemic, which could become endemic and recurrent if immunity were not sterilizing. As yet unpublished data in primates show that in the primate model re-infection is not possible in the short term, while patients cured from the Wuhan epidemic seem to be detected again positive for virus shedding. The objective of this study is to characterize the immunity (systemic and local) induced by SARS-Cov-2 infection among Percy hospital staff who are at high risk of contamination even in a period of confinement.
This is a two-arm, open-label, randomized, phase 2, controlled center study to assess the safety and efficacy of Viusid and Asbrip in patients with mild to moderate symptoms of respiratory disease caused by 2019 coronavirus infection. Patients will be randomized to receive daily doses of 30 ml of Viusid and 10 ml of Asbrip every 8 hours or standard care. Viusid and Asbrip will be administered orally. A total of 60 subjects will be randomized 2: 1 in this study. 40 patients will be assigned to Viusid plus Asbrip plus standard of care and 20 control patients with standard of care. Treatment duration: 21 days.
In mid-February 2020, within the Oise (France) cluster, a case of COVID-19 disease caused by a SARS-CoV2 infection was described among the personnel of the Creail Air Force Base (BA110). This resulted in the beginning of an epidemic controlled by epidemiological measures. One month later, containment measures were taken at the national level, measures that also applied to BA110 personnel. These personnel, exposed to both the initial phase of the epidemic and national protection measures, represent an extremely interesting population for understanding the epidemiological dynamics of the virus, particularly at a time when France is lifting the containment measures. It becomes extremely important to understand the levers of viral spread in order to adjust the health measures to be maintained as best as possible. The main objective of this study is to determine the extent of virus diffusion in this highly circulating population, as evidenced by several identified cases of COVID-19.
According to recent data, death rate is more than 20% for 75 years old hospitalized patients and older. In case of aggravation, according to the latest observations, if they are refused for mechanical ventilation in intensive care, their death rate could reach 60% even for patients without comorbidity. Apart from an increase in oxygen therapy, no specific treatment is currently proposed. The control of the inflammatory component seems to be a key element to be able to influence the patients' health evolution. Polyvalent intravenous immunoglobilins have immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties with a favorable safety profile for these elderly patients and several clinical cases lead to positive impact in the caring for Covid patients. This study objective is evaluation of the efficacy of polyvalent IVIg in combination with the standard management of patients aged 75 and over with SARSCov2 infection with acute respiratory failure (saturation ≤ 95%) requiring oxygen therapy> 5 L / min (i.e. patients considered as moderate to severe ARDS according to the Berlin definition, Pa02 / Fi02≤200) and disqualified from a care in the ICU.
