Assessment of Long-term Effects (Complications) of COVID-19 in the Southern Part of Bangladesh - a Retrospective Observational Study.
An outbreak of the novel coronavirus nCoV-19 (SARS-CoV-2), responsible for the coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19), was first detected in Hubei province, Wuhan, China, on December 31, 2019. It has rapidly spread globally with approximately 157,343,044 confirmed cases and 3,278,510 deaths till 7th May, 2021 [1]. World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID- 19 pandemic on 11th March 2020.
The world is facing the second wave of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic which is the most troublesome challenge to public health. The second wave is running and nobody knows where we are in the course of this disease. It becomes a significant challenge for the public health, science, and medical sectors [2].
According to the World Health Organization, about 80% of infections are mild or asymptomatic, 15% result in moderate to severe symptoms (requiring oxygen) and about 5% are critical infections, which require ventilation.
We are learning something new every day. Our understanding of the pandemic is growing and changing daily. The world is focusing on the short term - flattening the curve, treating the sick and discovering a vaccine. But there is more to this pandemic than the short term.
We know a lot about the transmission and clinical feature of COVID-19, but relatively little about what happens after someone recovers. Much is still unknown about how COVID-19 will affect people over time. There's still much to be learned from those who have recovered from COVID-19.
Inhalation of Vapor With Medication (Diclofenac Sodium, Menthol, Methyl Salicylate and N-Acetyl Cysteine) Reduces Oxygen Need and Hospital Stay in COVID-19 Patients - A Case Control Study
Background: In the midst of the devastating COVID pandemic where there is no specific and effective treatment, traditional therapy may help to ease the patient's suffering. Inhalation of vapor (VP) is an essential home remedy for stuffy, running nose in common cold, influenza and sinusitis. Steam inhalation is helpful in destroying the capsid of the SARS-CoV-2 envelope and preventing infection. Vapor with diclofenac sodium, menthol, methyl salicylate and N-acetyl cysteine may augment this effect. Objective: To evaluate the effect of inhalation of vapor with medication and to compare with inhalation of vapor without medication. Methods and Materials: A case control study taken place in Corona unit, Sher-E-Bangla Medical College Hospital, Barishal. 43 patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 were participated in this study. All are RT-PCR positive cases. Among them 16 patients were in control group and 27 in study group. In study group they were given vapor with Diclofenac Sodium, Menthol, Methyl Salicylate and N-Acetyl Cysteine and control group they were given normal steam/aquatic vapor two times in a day.
