Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

This study aimed to determine the role of in situ simulation training during a pandemic by using standard and high-fidelity mannequins to improve interprofessional communication, skills, and teamwork in transferring critically ill COVID-19 patients.

The COVID-19 outbreak has been categorized as a pandemic and declared an international public health emergency by WHO. In this context, an exceptional mobilization and a complete reorganization of the organization of the healthcare offer was put in place.The investigators will study the psychological consequences among emergency department (ED) / SAMU (Service d'Aide Médicale Urgente) professionals exposed during the COVID-19 pandemic to high psychological stress due to work overload, changes in practices and fears of contamination.They will evaluate at 9 and 12 months after the end of the second lockdown (July December 2020), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), personal and professional stress, anxiety and depression, burn-out and consumption of anxiolytic products. This is a multi-center study and includes doctors, DE interns and nurses, other paramedics and medical regulatory assistants working in one of the ED or SAMU working during phase 3 of the COVID-19 pandemic. It should make it possible to know the psychological load of the months following the epidemic among health professionals who worked in emergencies during this period and to understand their risk of occurrence of PTSD. These elements are also essential to improve the management of health crises and to put in place preventive measures for health professionals, in particular in anticipation of recurrences, second wave or future new episode.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus, which has developed the global pandemic situation. The promotion of vaccination is an effective strategy to control the epidemic. A total of 19,5738,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccines have been reported in China until August 24th, 2021. During widespread vaccination, the education in COVID-19 prevention and vaccination for residents are also crucial. To figure out the influence of education during waiting time of vaccination, we have designed a randomized controlled trial and planned to distribute leaflets and questionnaires to the residents of Xidian (a town in Ninghai, Zhejiang). This study is of great significance for the prevention of COVID-19 pandemic.

This is an observational study aiming at describing COVID-19 vaccination outcomes among HIV-positive and HIV-negative individuals, using electronic health records to observe their usual clinical care. This study will describe levels of COVID-19 vaccine response (i.e., Ig spike antibody measurements). Rates of antibody level decay after vaccination will be assessed. The efficacy of using antibody levels to help guide the timing of booster doses among HIV-negative and HIV-positive patients will be evaluated.

Clinical trials of prevention modalities for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and pneumonia are underway under separate protocol(s) for close contacts (i.e., household contacts, [e.g.,3502]) of infectious (index) individuals (3502-01). Characterizing the index individuals within households will ascertain the risk of exposure for the contact participant. These data will be used to strengthen the precision of efficacy estimates. This ancillary observational study will assess the cofactors for infectiousness among index individuals whose close contacts are enrolled in COVID-19 prevention clinical trials. Additionally, this study will assess post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection in index individuals that are more than two weeks past their initial diagnosis.

This is a 48-week, observational study looking to see if the inflammatory process of hypoxemic respiratory failure associated with COVID-19 leads to progressive pulmonary fibrosis. Inpatient, as well as outpatient adults with recent COVID-19 hospitalization will be recruited. Data from hospitalization will be collected and subjects will return to the center for follow-up visits. Subjects will undergo the following procedures: High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) of the chest, Pulmonary Function Tests (PFT), Muscle Strength Measurement, and blood draw for biomolecular data such as biomarkers found in ribonucleic acid (RNA), deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), serum, and plasma. Quality of Life (QoL) measurements will also be collected through the study.

Evaluation of immunogenicity and safety of the subjects aged 60 years and above with chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease recruited to receive the schedule of three doses of inactivated COVID-19 vaccine on day 0, day 21 and day 111, respectively .

Evaluation of immunogenicity and safety of the subjects infected with HIV to receive the schedule of two doses inactivated COVID-19 vaccine with the interval of 21 days .

An outbreak of Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-coV-2) occurred in Wuhan city, Hubei province, China in December 2019. Pulmonary health has been the main focus of studies of COVID-19, current articles show that cutaneous signs appear in COVID-19 patients, their identification may be vital to early diagnosis and lead to possible better prognosis in COVID-19 patients

This is a longitudinal study of participants from two university communities in Chile. The primary objective is to examine the effect of a regional lockdown on alcohol and tobacco use, using a difference-in-difference analysis to obtain causal estimates of these COVID-19 policies.
