Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

Sarcopenia is a risk factor for adverse outcome in critically ill patients. Sarcopenia might be estimated from muscle surface measure on tomodensitometry. The purpose of the study is to identify if muscle surfaces measured on thoracic tomodensitometry are associated with mortality in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome due to SARS-Cov-2.

this study adopted a cross-sectional study, collected the medical history and symptoms of patients infected with Covid-19 through a questionnaire survey, and made statistical analysis, so as to provide better clinical guidance.

The main objective of this research is to identify and characterize the different molecular variants of SARS-CoV-2, emerging and / or circulating in several countries of Sub-Saharan Africa (Burkina Faso, Côte d'Ivoire, Gabon, Mali, Chad and Republic of Congo) and determine their role in the evolution of the pandemic.

The researchers are doing this study to find out whether the study drug hydroxychloroquine can prevent infection with the COVID-19 virus, compared with placebo, in people who are receiving radiation therapy for their cancer. The placebo used in this study is a tablet that looks the same as the study drug and is taken in the same way, but it does not contain any active ingredients.

The study will be a randomized controlled trial, involving patients with hyposmia/anosmia of onset immediately after an upper respiratory viral illness, assigned to three distinct study arms. Nasal irrigations will be prescribed to all three groups (BID). In addition, one arm will receive a paper hand-out about post-viral anosmia with instructions to smell common household items (current care) and act as a control group. The second group will receive an essential oil retraining kit, whereas the third group will receive the same olfactory training kit and a prescription to use budesonide with the nasal irrigations. Olfactory scores will be tested at the enrollment, 3 months and at 6 months.

The aim of this study is to describe the baseline demographic, clinical characteristics, and Healthcare Resource Use (HCRU) of adult (≥18 years) COVID-19 patients who have been prescribed nirmatrelvir, ritonavir treatment.

The use of growth hormone in obese cases with COVID-19 may help them to recover earlier.

The clinical trial will evaluate the short term and extended impact on on respiration, pulmonary function and cardiovascular function in C2Rx treatment verse Standard of Care (SOC) in critically ill adults with COVID-19 infections .

This clinical trial aims to ascertain the impact of GSE and Xylitol (XLEAR) in decreasing the time of negativisation in PCR testing in patients with COVID-19.

To evaluate the psychological, physical, social, professional and family impact of a hospitalization in intensive care for a covid 19 by analysis of the verbatim during a semi-structured interview.
