Active clinical trials for "Pneumonia, Viral"

Retrospective Non-Randomized Analytical Cohort Study of Completed SARS-CoV2 COVID19 Cases

Evaluating value of D-Dimer blood level of icu admitted patients on admission and 48 hours later as outcome predictor in SARS.COV.2 patients.

This prospective observational pilot study investigates circulatory coherence in patients with COVID and non-COVID sepsis by comparison of microcirculation, endothelial glycocalyx, and clinical course

This protocol provides access to eculizumab treatment for participants with severe COVID-19.

Since December 2019, a new agent, the SARS-Cov-2 coronavirus has been rapidly spreading from China to other countries causing an international outbreak of respiratory illnesses named COVID-19. In France, the first cases have been reported at the end of January with more than 60000 cases reported since then. A significant proportion (20-30%) of hospitalized COVID-19 patients will be admitted to intensive care unit. However, few data are available for this special population in France. We conduct a large observational cohort of ICU suspected or proven COVID-19 patients that will enable to describe the initial management of COVID 19 patients admitted to ICU and to identify factors correlated to clinical outcome.

Patients over 18 years of age who are admitted to the Intermediate Care Unit of the Clinica del Country and the Clinica la Colina, with symptoms suggestive of severe pneumonia secondary to COVID-19 infection and acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. The primary outcome will be to determine the relationship between body mass index and high-flow cannula therapy success defined as: No need for mechanical ventilation.

During COVID-19 epidemic, hydroxychloroquine was proposed and authorized as a possible key agent in the treatment of COVID-19 hospitalized pneumonia, including in France. Gautret et al. proposed the combination regimen with azithromycin. However only one study reported the interest of azithromycin alone. Retrospective study reporting the impact of the anti-infective agents used during the pandemic in a tertiary care hospital, using azithromycin with or without hydroxychloroquine.

Rationale: The clinical manifestations of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children are poorly characterized. Preliminary findings indicate that they may be atypical. There is a need to identify the spectrum of clinical presentations, predictors of severe disease (COVID-19) outcomes, and successful treatment strategies in this population. Goals: Primary - Describe and compare characteristics of confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infected children with symptomatic test-negative children. Secondary - 1) Describe and compare confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infected children with mild versus severe COVID-19 outcomes; 2) Describe healthcare resource utilization for, and outcomes of, screening and care of pediatric COVID-19 internationally, alongside regional public health policy changes. Methods: This prospective observational study will occur in 50 emergency departments across 11 countries. We will enroll 12,500 children who meet institutional screening guidelines and undergo SARS-CoV-2 testing. Data collection focuses on epidemiological risk factors, demographics, signs, symptoms, interventions, laboratory testing, imaging, and outcomes. Collection will occur at enrollment, 14 days, and 90 days. Timeline: Recruitment will last for 12 months (worst-case model) and will begin within 7-14 days of funding notification after ongoing expedited review of ethics and data sharing agreements. Impact: Results will be shared in real-time with key policymakers, enabling rapid evidence-based adaptations to pediatric case screening and management.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of critically ill patients with COVID-19 admitted to the intensive care unit. A Multicenter Observational Study.

aim of this study is to compare between standard dose methyl prednisolone and mega dose methyl prednisolone as regards outcome reflected by mortality rate, percentage of mechanically ventilated patients and icu length of stay of covid 19 patients admitted in intensive care unit.
