About this study

Observational, cross-sectional, multi-center, multi-wave survey, assessing characteristics and predictors of physical and mental health as well as health behaviors during COVID-19 pandemic, targeting the general population (children, adolescents and adults).

Read the detailed description

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 (known as Coronavirus) virus a global pandemic. COVID-19 is a variant of coronavirus thought to originate in Wuhan province China. Up until April 7, 2020, as many as 1,346,299 individuals had confirmed COVID-19 infection, with already 74,679 deaths from COVID-19 complications.

The hypothesis of this study is that the physical and mental health of the general population and health care workers involved in the management of COVID-19 infected people is heavily affected by COVID-19, but that risk and protective factors exist.

Investigators plan to distribute 3 different surveys based on the age group. The first survey, COH-FIT-Adults/ (COH-FIT-A), will be distributed the general adult (age >/= 18 years old) population in North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia via an online link, making the general population aware of the project via public announcements, social media and regular media coverage outlets, or via specialized institutes and agencies (e.g., opinion research centers) that are capable of using a randomly selected, nationally representative sample (potentially funded by national / local grant applications). For the subgroup of adult health-care professionals, additionally, survey distribution mechanisms will be used that utilize medical professional organizations and associations, hospital and university anonymized channels.

Guardians of adolescents aged 14-17 years old will be asked to provide electronic consent for their adolescent to participate in the COH-FIT-AD survey after having taken the survey and being familiar with the questions, being informed that the one question having sexuality as the content will be omitted from the adolescent version. Guardians of children aged 6-13 years old will be able to review the survey questions that children would answer before electronically consenting to participate.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Mental health symptoms, well-being change from last 2 weeks before the pandemic to last 2 weeks during COVID-19 pandemic

    Primary outcome in the wave 1 survey, conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic, will be mean change in visual analogue scale-assessed transdiagnostic measures across all psychiatric symptoms, and World Health Organization (WHO)-5 well-being in the last 2 weeks compared to the last 2 weeks of "regular life" before the COVID-19 outbreak.

    For WHO-5 the raw score ranges from 0 (absence of well-being) to 25 (maximal well-being).

    Measured: wave 1 - change from last 2 weeks before pandemic to the following from April 26th 2020 on, until the pandemic will be over as declared by WHO (we estimate between October 2020 and April 2021)

  2. Mental health symptoms, well-being change from last 2 weeks before the pandemic to last 2 weeks 6 months after WHO declares pandemic over COVID-19 pandemic

    Primary outcome in the wave 2 survey, conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic, will be mean change in visual analogue scale-assessed transdiagnostic measures across all psychiatric symptoms and World Health Organization (WHO)-5 well-being in the last 2 weeks six months after the COVID-19 pandemic ended, compared to the last 2 weeks of "regular life" before the COVID-19 outbreak.

    For WHO-5 the raw score ranges from 0 (absence of well-being) to 25 (maximal well-being).

    Measured: wave 2 - change from before to 6 months after pandemic

  3. Mental health symptoms change, well-being change from last 2 weeks before the pandemic to last 2 weeks 12 months after WHO declares pandemic over COVID-19 pandemic

    Primary outcome in the wave 3 survey, conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic, will be mean change in visual analogue scale-assessed transdiagnostic measures across all psychiatric symptoms and World Health Organization (WHO)-5 well-being in the last 2 weeks 12 months after the COVID-19 pandemic ended, compared to the last 2 weeks of "regular life" before the COVID-19 outbreak.

    For WHO-5 the raw score ranges from 0 (absence of well-being) to 25 (maximal well-being).

    Measured: wave 3 - change from before to 12 months after pandemic (after the pandemic outbreak has been declared from WHO, and until the pandemic outbreak has been declared conlucded by WHO)

An observational study of Mental Health Wellness 1 and Pandemic, run by University of Padova at 1 site in Greece.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 May 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Greece. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Marco Solmi, MD (+390498213829, marco.solmi@unipd.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mental health symptoms, well-being change from last 2 weeks before the pandemic to last 2 weeks during COVID-19 pandemic (time frame: wave 1 - change from last 2 weeks before pandemic to the following from April 26th 2020 on, until the pandemic will be over as declared by WHO (we estimate between October 2020 and April 2021)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04383470, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 May 2020.
