On 30 January 2020, World Health Organization (WHO) officially declared the COVID-19 epidemic as a public health emergency of international concern. An acute respiratory disease, caused by a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2, previously known as 2019-nCoV), the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has
PROTOCOL SUMMARY:
Long title: Proposed use of TPE (therapeutic plasma exchange), to Limit Coronavirus Associated Complications: An Open label, Phase 2 Study
Clinical Phase: Two arms, Phase 2 Open Label
Conducted by: Department of Pulmonology and Critical Care; Pak Emirates Military Hospital.
Sample
Pulse oximetry estimates oxygen saturation in the arterial blood by trans-illuminating a translucent tissue (usually a fingertip, or an ear lobe) with light-emitting diodes at 2 specific wavelengths. Absorption of light at these different wavelengths (660 nm, red, and 940 nm, infrared respectively)
5. INTRODUCTION
5.1 Executive Summary RLF-100 (aviptadil) is a synthetic form of Vasoactive Intestinal Polypeptide (VIP), a ubiquitous, naturally synthesized human peptide with extensively documented anti-inflammatory, anti-cytokine cascade properties. It has been granted FDA Fast Track Designation
Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), a contagious novel coronavirus now called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2; formerly called 2019-nCoV).
Cardiac injury is a common condition among the hospitalized patients with COVID-19. It t was recently reported that 19.7% patients
Design: Randomized, parallel group, non-blinded, controlled clinical trial compared with conventional treatment.
A. Protocol and intervention Patients with an AHI>30 h-1 will be assigned, using a 1:1 randomization table, to lifestyle recommendations treatment or to lifestyle recommendations plus
Acutely ill adult COVID-19 patients with hypoxaemic respiratory failure admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) are at risk of life-threatening hypoxia, and are provided supplementary oxygen. Liberal use of supplementary oxygen may increase the number of serious adverse events including death.
This is an investigator initiated, open label, multicenter, two arm, randomized study to compare the impact of adding IVIG to the Standard of Care (SOC) to the SOC without IVIG. Randomization will be 1:1. The goal of this study is to identify whether or not IVIG can halt the progression to
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a pandemic that has significantly challenged health systems worldwide. Due to the large number of infections around the world, the implementation of strategies to reduce the number of intubations and the need for invasive mechanical ventilation becomes
As part of the management of COVID-19 related severe ARDS, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends prone positioned mechanical ventilation. At this time, it is unclear whether there is a role for prone positioning (PP) of non-mechanically ventilated patients.
The objective of this trial is to
In March 2020, the third highest number of positive cases in the world was recorded in Italy, mainly due to 2 outbreaks of 2 different clusters in Lombardy and Veneto.
Fever is the most common symptom, followed by fatigue and dry cough; worsening of dyspnea and acute respiratory distress syndrome
The study team proposes a randomized controlled trial of CPAP (n=100) vs. control (n=100) in COVID-19 suspected or confirmed patients with pneumonia or respiratory illness. The overarching aim of this proposal is to determine if early use of CPAP at home will reduce hypoxemic events or reduce the
In patients with COVID-19 the incidence of ARDS is 15% and the all-cause mortality 4%. No treatment has been shown to improve the outcome of these patients.
Mechanical ventilation in the prone position decreases mortality with around 50% when applied to patients with severe respiratory failure.
