Coronavirus InfectionSARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome)6 more

The overall objective of the study is to determine the therapeutic effect and tolerance of Tocilizumab combined with Dexamethasone in patients with moderate, severe pneumonia or critical pneumonia associated with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Tocilizumab (TCZ) is an anti-human IL-6 receptor monoclonal antibody that inhibits signal transduction by binding sIL-6R and mIL-6R. The study has a cohort multiple Randomized Controlled Trials (cmRCT) design. Randomization will occur prior to offering Dexamethasone alone or Dexamethasone +Tocilizumab administration to patients enrolled in the CORIMUNO-19 cohort. Tocilizumab will be administered to consenting adult patients hospitalized with COVID-19 either diagnosed with moderate or severe pneumonia requiring no mechanical ventilation or critical pneumonia requiring mechanical ventilation. Patients who will chose not to receive Tocilizumab will receive standard of cares. Outcomes of Tocilizumab-treated patients will be compared with outcomes of standard of care (including Dexamethasone) treated patients

Examination of The Effects of Telerehabilitation in Painful Healthcare Workers With and Without...

COVID-19 Respiratory Infection

In the literature, there are studies examining the effects of telerehabilitation on individuals who have had COVID-19, but studies examining the effects on healthcare workers who have experienced COVID-19 are insufficient. In this study, which is planned to be done, it is aimed to examine the effects of myofascial relaxation technique on pain and other symptoms through telerehabilitation. The aim of the study is to examine the effects of myofascial relaxation technique applied with the telerehabilitation method on pain level, anxiety, depression, sleep, fatigue and kinesiophobia in healthcare workers with and without COVID-19 infection with pain.

Standardized Olive Leaf Capsules; as a Co-therapy in the Treatment of COVID-19 Patients

Covid19COVID-19 Respiratory Infection3 more

Starting from December 2019, novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused a tremendous economic loss and unprecedented health crisis across the globe. Discovering an effective and safe drug candidates for the treatment of COVID-19 and its associated symptoms became a global urgent demand especially due to limited data that have been released regarding the vaccine efficacy and safety in humans. Reviewing the recent research, Olive leaf was selected as a potential co-therapy supplement for the treatment and the improvement of clinical manifestations in COVID-19 patients. Olive leaves reported to be rich in phenolic compounds such as oleuropein, hydroxy tyrosol, verbascoside, apigenin-7-glucoside and luteolin-7-glucoside which has been reported as anti-SARS-CoV-2 metabolites in recent In silico, computational and in vitro studies. In addition, olive leaf extract was previously reported in several in vivo studies for its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antipyretic, immunomodulatory and anti-thrombotic activities which is of a great benefit in the control of associated inflammatory cytokine storm and disseminated intravascular coagulation in COVID-19 patients. A placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial at Fayoum University Hospital in Egypt will be conducted. RT-PCR confirmed COVID-19 adults showing mild to moderate disease will be enrolled in the study. Patients presenting with multi-organ failure, ventilator support, and chronic diseases (except diabetes mellitus and hypertension) were excluded. Patients were randomly assigned in 1:1 ratio to receive standardized olive leaves capsules (containing 20-50% oleuropein) or placebo up-to 10 days along with standard care. The expected outcomes included symptom alleviation, viral clearance, improvement of analysis (CBC, CRP, LDH, ESR, Ferritin, D-dimer, creatinine, ALT and AST) and a 10-day mortality in intention-to-treat population.

Implementation of CRP Point of Care Testing in Primary Care to Improve Antibiotic Targeting in Respiratory...

Acute Respiratory Infection

The proposed study will monitor and evaluate a quality improvement project - the introduction of commercially available lateral flow CRP tests with international regulatory approval, as a routine care service to improve the management of patients with acute respiratory infection (ARI) and reduce unnecessary antibiotic prescribing. No research staff will be present, and to minimise disruption and alteration of routine care, a waiver of written patient informed consent will be requested from the relevant ethical review boards, in accordance with the 2016 WHO/CIOMS International Guidance for Health-related Research Involving Humans8. Instead, patients in intervention clusters will be provided with information concerning how the test can assist healthcare workers in identifying when antibiotics are required, after which they will be free to refuse its use. The test selected for use in the study is the Actim® CRP test from Medix Biochemica (Finland; ISO certification ISO13485:2016). The test is a simple lateral flow device that uses capillary blood, obtained through a finger/heel puncture. The test provides a semi-quantitative indication of whether CRP concentrations are <10mg/L, between 10-40mg/L, between 40-80mg/L, or above 80mg/L, in under 5 minutes with minimal training requirements. The test has been approved by the European regulatory body (CE-marking) as well as in 13 other countries around the world (including Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, Israel and Thailand) and has been validated for accuracy in previous publications.9,10 Our own research group has also confirmed the tests' accuracy in both laboratory and field environments, including their thermos-stability in a tropical climate (see annex). Neither Medix Biochemica nor any of its distributors, have had involvement with the design of the evaluation and our group has no conflict of interest with respect to the choice of the test. Main research question: Can point of care CRP tests introduced in routine primary healthcare reduce prescription of antibiotics for patients with acute respiratory infections, outside of the research context? Brief description of the intervention: The implementation of CRP point of care tests will be conducted at commune health centres (CHCs), the primary access point for public health services in Vietnam (CHC details are described in the Location section below). Prior to introduction of the tests, an educational session will be provided for local healthcare workers in both intervention and control arms about the role of antibiotics and AMR. After randomization, further training will be provided for healthcare workers in the intervention CHCs as to the use of CRP testing to guide antibiotic prescribing decisions. In the intervention CHCs, healthcare workers will be trained on the use and interpretation of CRP testing in ARI (detailed in section 5.4). Educational materials will also be developed for patients and care-givers regarding the value of CRP testing. Description of the population to be studied: This study will be conducted in the general population of Nam Dinh, a rural province in northern Vietnam. The test will be provided at CHCs and recommended for use in patients presenting with a chief complaint of ARI.
