Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

The study is designed to clarify the clinical characteristics, risk factors and long-term prognosis of children with 2019-nCoV infection in China.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is a potentially fatal disease that represents a great global public health concern. In European countries such as Spain, Italy, Germany, Portugal, England and France, the pandemic has been of utmost importance. To date, no treatment has been robustly validated, and two theoretically opposite therapeutic strategies are proposed, based either on antiretroviral therapy or on immunomodulating agents. In this complex context, people living with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMID) raise specific concerns due to their potentially increased risk of infections or of severe infections. Among IMID, Sjögren's syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis and giant cell arteritis are some key diseases. In this cross-sectional, observational, multi-centric study, the investigators aim to assess both clinical and serological prevalence of COVID-19 among samples of IMID patients in Europe. In parallel, the investigators aim to compare the prevalence of COVID-19 seroconversion across these five IMIDs, their penetration across different 6 European countries (France, Italy, Spain, Germany, United Kingdom and Portugal), and to assess the severity of COVID-19 in these patients. Moreover, changes in treatment will be assessed, including immunomodulatory tapering or discontinuation, its causes over the outbreak period, as well as the incidence of IMID flares and their severity over this same period. Finally, patient's perceptions towards the pandemic will be evaluated and compared to medication beliefs. Data will be collected through questionnaires during medical visit or phone consultation and serological tests will be performed within routine blood collection. As so, all study procedures are comprised within usual care. Through this study the investigators expect to have a better knowledge of the clinical and serological prevalence of COVID-19 in IMID across Europe, along with the psychological, clinical, and therapeutic impact of COVID-19 in this particular patient population.

All patients with COVID-19 were divided into three groups according to their illness: mild patient who receive conventional oxygen therapy, severe patients who receive nasal high flow oxygen inhalation or non-invasive positive pressure ventilation，all the oxygen therapy will be used as part of the standard of care. Each group will enroll 10 patients, the treatment of all patients will be continuously optimized during observation, and the incidence of respiratory failure, intubation rate, 28 day mortality rate, ICU hospitalization days, etc will be recorded and analyzed so to optimize the treatment time window of sequential oxygen therapy

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Egyptian government issued movement restrictions and placed areas into quarantine to reduce the spread of the disease. In addition, individuals were encouraged to adopt personal protective measures, such as social isolation , increasing personal hygiene and wearing protective face masks. Information regarding the COVID 19 virus and protective measures is found on social media and ministry of health website and a number of the Egyptian population are keeping track of them .Public Awareness play a major rule in reducing the spread of COVID 19 so in this study a survey is done to measure the awareness of the Egyptian population toward COVID 19 , their knowledge and attitude and their adherence to preventive measures.It also measures the change of their behavior during the beginning of the outbreak and after a few months of the outbreak in Egypt.

The aim of this study is to provide optimum care to postoperative patients diagnosed with COVID-19 (after cesarean) and to help them with recovery, to determine and assist the expectation and satisfaction of pregnant women with COVID-19 regarding prenatal care.

A pneumonia of unknown cause detected in Wuhan, China was first reported to the WHO Country Office in China on 31 December 2019. The outbreak was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 30 January 2020. The spread and severity of the disease is variable from one country to another. Our team as well as many reports suggested that in some countries a " Flu like illness but much worse" was described in October, November and early in December before the WHO announcement. Was it COVID-19?

CAPACITY (www.capacity-covid.eu) is a registry of patients with COVID-19 across Europe and has been established to answer questions on the role of cardiovascular disease in this pandemic. It is an extension of the Case Record Form (CRF) that was released by the ISARIC (International Severe Acute Respiratory and Emerging Infection Consortium) and WHO (World Health Organisation) in response to the emerging outbreak of COVID-19.

The intense health crisis due to COVID-19 led to a profound reorganization of the activities at theatres, recovery rooms and the intensive care units. The caregivers are facing several issues and are daily exposed to an intensification of the work. Assessing the stress and the well-being of the caregivers is very important in this context.

The Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV), also known as Wuhan coronavirus, causes the 2019-nCoV acute respiratory disease. The number of patients infected by 2019-nCoV in Italy closely followed an exponential trend, and Italy reported the highest number of infected patients and deaths in the world excluding China.

This project aims to use artificial intelligence (image discrimination) algorithms, specifically convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for scanning chest radiographs in the emergency department (triage) in patients with suspected respiratory symptoms (fever, cough, myalgia) of coronavirus infection COVID 19. The objective is to create and validate a software solution that discriminates on the basis of the chest x-ray between Covid-19 pneumonitis and influenza
