Active clinical trials for "Infections"

CMV lesions were found in the olfactory system of children with congenital CMV infection but no study has hitherto examined the impact of congenital CMV infection on olfaction. So the investigators propose in this study to assess the proportion of children with olfactory deficits among children with congenital CMV infection. Second this study will also evaluate performances of a new olfactory test, based on discrimination of binary odorant mixtures.

The Agluna® (antimicrobial ionic silver surface technology) is used to treat the surface of the METS (Modular Endoprosthetic Tumour System) medical devices, in order to reduce the risk of post surgical infections after orthopaedic endoprosthetic replacement surgery. This Post Market Clinical Follow up study is designed to retrospectively establish the infection rate of a cohort patients who have received an Agluna® Treated METS implant and compare the clinical data to patients that have received an untreated METS implant; in order to provide evidence to support the investigators' clinical claims.

The purpose of this work was to study the incidence, types, risk factors and causative organisms of bacterial infections in HCV Egyptian patients following Liver Transplantation. Moreover, to identify the emerging resistant strains and their proper antimicrobial therapy

This observational epidemiologic study with nested cross-sectional and longitudinal aims will evaluate host immune response to mixed chronic infections (Helicobacter pylori, latent tuberculosis, intestinal helminthiasis) in recent US immigrants.

This study aims to evaluate if a smartphone-delivered tool can help assess for wound infections, and if this improves access to care and results in earlier treatment. Participants will be randomised to one of two groups. The intervention group will receive the smartphone-delivered wound assessment tool (SWAT), to access if they have concerns about their wound. The trial period is 30 days.

The primary objectives of this study were to evaluate the incidence of congenital CMV infection in neonates, and assess the concordance of detecting congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in neonatal saliva and urine samples.

Observational study on the reduction of catheter-related Infections by use of self-disinfecting venous and arterial access caps (Curos caps ;3M, Saint Paul, MN, USA)

The objective of the study is to determine the percentage of past SARS-CoV-2 infections in hospital health personnel involved in the care of people with COVID-19 in HUGTiP and in Badalona Serveis Assistencials de Badalona.

Non-commercial depersonalized multi-centered registry study on analysis of chronic non-infectious diseases dynamics after SARS-CoV-2 infection in adults.

CT signs that are evocative of lung COVID-19 infections have been extensively described, whereas 18F-FDG-PET signs have not. Our current study aimed to identify specific COVID-19 18F-FDG-PET signs in patients that were (i) suspected to have a lung infection based on 18F-FDG-PET/CT recorded during the COVID-19 outbreak and (ii) whose COVID-19 diagnosis was definitely established or excluded by appropriate viral testing.
