Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

Several treatments have been used in during the Covid-19 pandemic of 2020. Using patients' registries from several hospitals in Paris, the investigators retrospectively analyzed associations between specific treatments, including but not limited to vaccines targeted against SARS-CoV-2, hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, remdesivir, baricitinib, tocilizumab, sarilumab, lopinavir/ritonavir and oseltamivir; and clinical outcomes including, death and mechanical ventilation.

Describe the main clinical features impacting the food intake, and therefore the nutritional status of a population infected by a coronavirus.

The Covid-19 pandemic is a major public health issue. Potential treatments are essential to control the infection. Hydroxychlorquine is currently tested in several clinical trials to evaluate its efficiency.The objective of this study was to evaluate the symptoms related to COVID-19 occuring in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)

This is a Phase II pilot exploratory study designed to investigate if prophylactic treatment with short term steroids administered to high risk Covid-19 patient might prevent cytokine storm and progression to respiratory failure. High risk is defined based on serologic markers of inflammation that include abnormalities of Interleukin 6 (IL-6), Ferritin , D-dimer, Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH), as well as lymphopenia and impaired O2 saturation prior to or on the 7th day of first symptom of Covid-19.

Increased D-dimers at admission of COVID-19 infected patients entering hospital due to a severe disease is a risk factor for death. Understanding this acquired coagulopathy is a prerequisite before specific interventional studies. The study investigators aim to apply a normalized and automated thrombin generation test (TGT), developed for testing the thrombotic risk (triggered by 5 pM Tissue Factor, with a purified thrombomodulin (TM) challenge) and to study its association with survival.

We plan to perform an observational study to evaluate the prevalence of burnout, depression and medical errors in a designated exclusive Covid-19 patients hospital in Malaysia, during the Covid-19 pandemic. We also seek to assess the relationship between burnout and depression with medical errors. The population studied will be the anaesthesiology fraternity, who are at higher risk to the nature of their work at the frontlines of the pandemic.

The study is a prospective clinical cohort study of consecutive patients hospitalized at all hospitals of greater Copenhagen with a laboratory confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19. The investigators aim to examine if continuous ECG monitoring can be used to understand the contribution of COVID-19 infection in the acute phase to the development of cardiac arrhythmias, especially focusing on cardiovascular outcomes. In all patients included, the investigators aim to examine if continuous ECG monitoring - alone and in combination with biomarkers - can be used to detect early signs of cardiac complications and predict long-term risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality following COVID-19 infection.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the prevalence of venous thromboembolism in a regional health care system (Region Östergötland, Sweden) before and during the SARS-COV-2 pandemic. In a retrospective observational study, we will review patient data, diagnostic data and treatment data over a three-month period since the onset of the SARS-COV-2 pandemic. This data will be compared with data from the corresponding time frame during the years 2015 to 2019.

COVID-19 is a rapidly spreading and very contagious disease caused by a novel coronavirus that can lead to respiratory insufficiency. In many patients, the chest radiograph at first presentation be normal, and early low-dose CT-scan is advocated to diagnose viral pneumonia. Lung ultrasound (LUS) has similar diagnostic properties as CT for diagnosing pneumonia. However, it has the advantage that it can be performed at point-of-care, minimizing the need to transfer the patient, reducing the number of health care personnel and equipment that come in contact with the patient and thus potentially decrease the risk of spreading the infection. This study has the objective to examine the accuracy of lung ultrasound in patients with proven COVID-19 pneumonia.

This study is to discuss the different clinical presentations, hematological and laboratory abnormalities in pediatric COVID-19 infection.
