Active clinical trials for "Pneumonia"

Participants who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled and then having a daily follow up for maximum of 13 days' hospitalization. Next follow up will be taken time at day 14th after hospitalization date, either on ward or policlinic. The participations will be ended by day 30th after hospitalization date when the called follow up is done by investigator.

The objective of this study is to administer and validate a disease specific health related quality of life (HRQOL) survey for patients with Chronic Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis (CHP).

Observational pilot single-center study aiming to determine the microbiota of critically ill patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. COVID-19 patients will be compared to historical critically ill controls with no SARS-CoV-2 infection.

The objective of this study is to develop and evaluate an algorithm which accurately predicts mortality in COVID-19, pneumonia and mechanically ventilated ICU patients.

The search for novel therapies to address the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is ongoing. No proven therapies have been identified to prevent progression of the virus. Preliminary data suggest that inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) could have benefit in preventing viral progression and reducing reliance on supplemental oxygen and ventilator support. Expanded access allows for iNO to be delivered via the portable INOpulse delivery system for the treatment of COVID-19.

Given the need for a more sensitive pathogen detection test in patients with immunocompromised pneumonia, this study will evaluate the performance of the Karius Test, a novel NGS blood test for the diagnosis of infectious diseases. We will compare the performance of the Karius Test to the results of microbiologic tests obtained as part of usual care for immunocompromised patients undergoing evaluation for suspected pneumonia.

Antibiotics are medicines used to avoid and treat bacterial infections. Antibiotic resistance is increasing to dangerous level globally.

SARS-COV 2 infection might be responsible for sever pneumonia. Obesity seems to be a risk factor for severe SARS-COV 2 pneumonia. Lipid metabolism alteration are described with both obesity and sepsis. The aim of the present study was to describe association between lipid metabolism, obesity, sepsis inflammation and clinical outcome in COVID-19 patient with severe pneumonia compared with severe pneumonia caused by other pathogenes.

This study aims to design a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and apply an attention model to help differentiate pneumonia due to Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), pneumonia due to other viruses/bacteria, and normal chest x-ray (CXR) in clinical practice. A bank of digital chest images from a high-complexity health facility in Cali, Colombia, was used.

In this study, investigators aimed to develop and validate a risk score to predict severe outcomes (e.g., mortality and ICU admission) in children who were admitted to the Children's Hospital of Fudan University between 2017 and 2022 due to community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). The objectives were as follows. Develop a risk prediction model based on demographic, comorbidity, clinical characteristics, laboratory data, and chest radiographic reports to predict severe outcomes among children hospitalized with CAP; Develop a risk scoring system and determine the cut-off point; Externally validate the easy-to-use risk score.
