Active clinical trials for "Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome"

This is a multi-center, double-blinded study of COVID-19 infected patients randomized 1:1 to daily losartan or placebo for 10 days or treatment failure (hospital admission).

The GW Medical Faculty Associates recently launched a remote monitoring program for patients diagnosed with COVID-19. Patients are provided with a home pulse oximeter and thermometer. Participants complete daily surveys about their symptoms and vital signs and are escalated to receive phone calls and video visits if responses are abnormal. Investigators would like to complete a study of the program to understand: Operational parameters of program performance, such as how many patients were enrolled and how many patients completed monitoring Clinical course of patients, including their reported symptoms over time and clinical endpoints such as hospitalization or ICU admission Patient satisfaction with program

Currently there is no standard treatment for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Use of convalescent plasma has been studied in outbreaks of other respiratory infections, including SARS-CoV-1 , MERS-CoV and Hantavirus infection. This study is an open-label randomized trial in which patients with high risk of COVID19-associated respiratory failure will be randomized to early treatment with convalescent plasma (≤ 7 days from symptoms start) or at early signs of respiratory failure or prolonged hospitalization. COVID-19 convalescent plasma will be collected from individuals according to the institutional protocol.

Prone positioning is an established intervention in mechanically ventilated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients, with demonstrated reductions in mortality. Preliminary data suggest that awake proning in patients with COVID-19 treated with high-flow nasal oxygenation (HFNO) improves gas exchanges, and might be associated with a reduced need of mechanical ventilation, and reduced mortality. Further investigation in a formal randomized-controlled trial is need.

This study aims to collect convalescent plasma and use it as experimental treatment in critically ill Covid-19 patients in order to reduce mortality and length of stay in intensive care unit.

This is a multi-center, double-blinded study of COVID-19 infected patients requiring inpatient hospital admission randomized 1:1 to daily Losartan or placebo for 7 days or hospital discharge.

A prospective and retrospective cohort study. The objective will to determine the frequency of COVID-19 in pregnant and postpartum women hospitalized with flu syndrome, to evaluate clinical and laboratory predictors of COVID-19 progression and to determine the factors associated with adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes in healthcare centers in two states of Northeast Brazil.The study will be conducted including pregnant and postpartum women with clinical or laboratorial diagnosis of COVID-19, admitted in six healthcare centers in the Northeast of Brazil. All pregnant and postpartum women with clinical and/or diagnosis of COVID-19, attended in prenatal care, in emergency (maternity triage), high-risk pregnancy ward, obstetric intensive care unit and rooming-in ward will be included. The data will be collected in specific forms. The exams will be carried out by trained professionals within each institution.

This is a longitudinal study in which participants that have been confirmed by a National Health Service (NHS) swab test as COVID-19 positive will be asked to provide faecal and saliva samples, and complete short health/lifestyle questionnaires at the time of sampling (referred to as a sample set). The number of sample sets collected from any participant will be dependent on how long the SARS-CoV-2 virus persists within the stool. The investigators aim to collect a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 8 sample sets, and will target all COVID-19-positive subjects, with the exception of those severally ill (e.g. in the intensive care unit (ICU)). The investigators aim to recruit a minimum of 100 and up to 200 participants. To obtain the desired numbers, it may be necessary to continue recruitment during any further United Kingdom (UK) COVID-19 infection peaks.

A Study to Learn About the Medicine Called Nirmatrelvir Used in Combination With Ritonavir in People with Weakened Immune Systems or at Increased Risk for Poor Outcomes who are Hospitalized Due to Severe COVID-19

This study aims to evaluate the safety and reactogenicity profile after 1 and 2 dose administrations of CVnCoV at different dose levels.
