Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

The investigators aim to understand the variation in pharmacological therapies for the management of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in India and compare it to the recent available evidence. The ongoing pandemic of COVID-19 has proven to be the greatest medical emergency of recent times. The evidence on the therapeutics has evolved significantly in last few months after initial use of re-purposed drugs. The objective of this study is to understand the current practices in the management of adults severe COVID-19 in India.

This research aims to understand if prone positioning combined with high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) or non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) safely reduce the rate of intubation in acute hypoxemic and/or hypercapnic respiratory failure secondary to COVID-19 infection.

The overall purpose of this study is to address the factors associated with an individual's personal willingness to get the vaccine and attitudes about potential public policy approaches to implementation of a Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine. Additionally, to evaluate how these attitudes change over time. The 1200 participants will be recruited by Ipsos (Ipsos KnowledgePanel®) from their nationally representative panel to participate in a survey at Time 1 and 1 year later. The information collected will include demographics, health status, household composition, experiences with COVID-19, attitudes about vaccines in general, COVID-19 vaccine specific attitudes, willingness to get a COVID-19 vaccine acceptability, and attitudes regarding COVID-19 vaccine mandates. The investigators anticipate that those who live in urban areas and who are older, have greater knowledge of COVID-19, who have known someone who was hospitalized for COVID-19, and have generally positive attitudes about vaccines will be more willing to get a vaccine. The primary reasons for willingness will be personal safety and desire to return to normal activities. The investigators also anticipate that those who vary on socio-demographics (e.g., live in urban areas, have more liberal political views), have greater knowledge of COVID-19, who have known someone who was hospitalized for COVID- 19, and have generally positive attitudes about vaccines will be more supportive of mandatory vaccination strategies. The investigators anticipate that attitudes will change over time in response to the current status of the pandemic and of available data about the vaccine's efficacy and safety.

Acute respiratory failure due to COVİD-19 pneumonia has poor prognosis and high mortality . Both the lack of an effective antiviral treatment and the low level evidence of the recommendations presented in the guidelines on other treatment methods have highlighted supportive treatments. Studies suggest that high-dose vitamin C treatment reduces mortality in patients with sepsis and ARDS, and may also be beneficial in COVİD-19 disease. In the study; the investigator aimed to determine the effect of Vitamin C on short-term mortality and length of intensive care stay in COVID-19 patients.

Although clinical trials for approved COVID-19 vaccines demonstrated efficacy of the vaccine in preventing symptomatic infection, many questions about vaccine effectiveness, such as the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccine in preventing asymptomatic infection, a surrogate for transmission, and duration of protection, can only be evaluated in real-world trials. The objective of the study is to evaluate COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness (Pfizer vaccine, and, if available, Moderna vaccine) in preventing infection in healthcare personnel in Israel. HCP who are Clalit members and working in Soroka, Beilinson, Meir, Haemek, Kaplan and Schneider hospitals, 18 years or older, and eligible to get COVID-19 vaccine according to Ministry of Health guidelines, will be recruited, regardless of their intention to get the COVID-19 vaccine. A baseline serology sample and respiratory sample will be collected. Participants will be asked to provide a respiratory sample weekly for 3 months, and then monthly for the remainder of the study. Participants will also have blood drawn at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months. Respiratory samples will be tested for SARS-CoV-2 by RT-PCR; serology will be tested for SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. The study will last for 12 months. For each participant, data will be extracted from the Electronic Medical Record for the period of the study and retrospectively from 2010.

Introduction: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a new pathology, declared a public health emergency by the World Health Organization, which can have negative consequences for pregnant women and their newborns. It is estimated that 1 in 5 women will develop a mental illness in the perinatal period. COVID-19 pandemic has been associated with anxiety and depression in the population. The current pandemic is a unique stressor with potentially wide-ranging consequences in the perinatal period, but little is known about the impact of COVID-19 on perinatal mental health. Thus, the objective of this study is to explore the experiences of pregnant and new mothers during the current pandemic, particularly its impact on perinatal mental health (including depression, anxiety, PTSD and psychological distress). Methods: The study design is a prospective observational study, with a baseline assessment and three follow-ups: one month; three months; and six months post baseline. This international study will be carried out in 11 European countries (Albania, Bulgaria, Cyprus, France, Greece, Israel, Malta, Portugal, Spain, Turkey, United Kingdom) Chile and Brazil. The study population will comprise pregnant women and new mothers with an infant under six months of age, covering a broad range of women across the perinatal period. Ethics and dissemination: The study and handling of the data will follow all national required data protection standards. Each researcher (or team of researchers) involved will submit the project to their local ethical committee before starting the project. Results from the project will be disseminated in peer reviewed journals and international conferences.

Observational and multicenter retrospective study of data collection in hospital centers throughout the Spanish geography. This study aims to be nationwide in order to study general common variables of the patients, as well as the correlation with the cancer treatments received.

This study is an open-label phase Ⅳ clinical trial of the inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine(CoronaVac)manufactured by Sinovac Research & Development Co., Ltd. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the Inactivated SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine (Vero Cell) in Healthy Population Aged From 18 to 59 Years.

A digital tool, called ReferID has been developed to facilitate the review of asthma patients. It aims to assist in the identification of patients with uncontrolled and/or severe asthma and to ensure a timely referral to secondary care where appropriate. To validate the tool, patients will be randomised to have a review with a healthcare professional using tool to facilitate the review or to continue receiving usual care. Outcome measures including exacerbation frequency and level of asthma control will be assessed at 12 months.

This study is a long-term follow-up survey of Japanese people after their second vaccination with the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. The study sponsor will not be involved in how the participants are treated but will provide instructions on how the clinics will record what happens during the study. The main aim of the study is to check for long-term side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine. This will be from 28 days to 12 months after the second vaccination of the COVID-19 vaccine. The number of visits to the clinic will depend on the clinic's standard practice.
