Active clinical trials for "Coronavirus Infections"

Using Laser light to detect COVID 19 virus particles in deep throat swab / nasal swab samples.

To develop and validate a machine-learning model based on clinical, laboratory, and radiological characteristics alone or combination of COVID-19 patients to facilitate risk Assessment before and after symptoms and triage (home, hospitalization inward or ICU).

This treatment protocol is designed to provide convalescent plasma as a therapeutic option for patients diagnosed with and hospitalized for COVID-19 with symptoms ranging from mild to life-threatening.

Multicenter observational/registry study of the clinical features and outcomes of critically ill patients with COVID-19.

In December 2019, Coronavirus infection (COVID-19) was identified as causing serious respiratory infection in humans. Initially COVID-19 was propagated by infected symptomatic individuals; currently the disease is disseminated by asymptomatic COVID-19 positive subjects. The prevalence of asymptomatic COVID-19 individuals is unknown. Due its physiologic immune suppression, pregnancy is a vulnerable time for severe respiratory infections including COVID-19. Limited information is available regarding the impact of COVID-19 in pregnancy and the prevalence and demographic profile of asymptomatic pregnant women. Despite reports of 15-20% positive COVID-19 tests in women admitted to Labor and Delivery, professional obstetric medical societies still recommend not prioritizing testing of patients who are asymptomatic. In the USA, COVID-19 symptomatic patients come predominantly from lower income, Black and Latino communities. No data are available on the rate and demographic distribution of asymptomatic positive COVID-19 pregnant women. To minimize the risk of inadvertent exposure asymptomatic individuals, recently our institution started COVID-19 testing in all admitted pregnant women. The investigators expect to gain knowledge on the impact of COVID-19 in pregnant women especially if asymptomatic and compare to other respiratory infections.

The purpose of this study is to test over time immunity to SARS-CoV-2, a recently identified coronavirus responsible for the 2019 world-wide pneumonia outbreak known as COVID-19. Adults and children diagnosed with COVID-19 as well as controls without COVID-19 will be invited to participate in this study.

The medical and paramedical staff of the front-line services are potentially exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, despite the application of standard protective measures, it is possible that a certain number of these personnel have already contracted SARS-CoV-2, including in its asymptomatic form. Serological testing in this context would be useful for deploying immune healthcare workers as to limit the risk of viral infection and transmission. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to prove that the serological response entails the production of neutralizing antibodies.

This is an observational prospective cohort study to evaluate the clinical course and outcomes of COVID-19 and the underlying disease in patients with hematologic disease (malignant or non-malignant).

Shaare-Zedek Medical Center is a tertiary academic hospital in Jerusalem, Israel. On March 2020, a dramatic increase in the number of COVID-19 cases were diagnosed in Jerusalem. RedHill Biopharma, Ltd. offered opaganib under compassionate use for the treatment of COVID-19 patients. Eligible patients were those hospitalized with COVID-19 confirmed by a reverse-transcriptase-polymerase-chain-reaction assay. Patients received opaganib and Standard of Care. For the purpose of this study, the opaganib and Standard of Care patient group was compared to a group of patients that received only Standard of Care. Opaganib is an investigational drug under development and not approved for commercial distribution.

To investigate the difference of the difference between the nonfatal Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Patients and the fatal Patients .The cross sectional study was undertaken to compare the clinical information (laboratory and radiologic characteristics)of nonfatal participants and fatal cases. The investigators wish figure out the clinical character of the fatal participants. The result may help the physician to find the fatal patients with COVID-19 more easily. The fatal patients with COVID-19 could be treated early.
