About this study

Official title: COVID-19 Infection in Healthcare Workers: a Cohort Study

Introduction: The SARS-Cov-2 outbreak in France and the concomitant massive increase in the number of cases requiring hospital management create a major risk of COVID-19 infection for hospital staff. In addition to nosocomial transmission, the health care workers (HCWs), defined as persons serving in health care settings who have the potential for direct or indirect exposure to patients or infectious materials, are also exposed to community transmission. Whether HCWs acquire infection at work or in the community is important to adapt protection measures. A few studies investigated COVID-19 infection among medical and nursing personnel. However, none have analyzed all categories of hospital staff. As of April 9, 2020, a total of 9,282 US HCWs with confirmed COVID-19 had been reported to CDC (US), however description of occupational activities was not available. Therefore, limited information is available about COVID-19 infection among HCWs.

Thus, the objectives of the sdudy are to estimate the incidence of symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection in HCWs in five university hospitals (including geriatric hospitals) of the great Paris area and to estimate both nosocomial and community risk factors.

Method: A prospective and retrospective cohort study that includes all hospital staff (including medical and nursing personnel, health care managers, laboratory, radiology, reception staffs, stretcher-bearers, etc.) working in different departments of five university hospitals (acute medical centers and geriatric hospitals) in the great Paris area (9 000 HCWs). Incidence of symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection will be estimated with its 95%CI. Individual and contextual risk factors will be analyzed using multilevel multivariate logistic regression modelling to account for clustering and confounding.

Conclusion This study should make it possible to better characterize SARS-Cov-2 contamination of HCWs and to estimate the share of nosocomial transmission.

Details for "Study design" section

Time perspective : Retrospective and prospective cohort study.

Up to protocol v2.0: Data from healthcare workers with COVID+ diagnostic at the time of inclusion will only be collected retrospectively. In contrast, data from healthcare workers free from infection will be collected prospectively.

From protocol v3.0: Recruitment of healthcare workers will be prospective. A retrospective collection of exposures during the 15 days preceding the RT-PCR or the antigenic test for COVID diagnosis will be performed.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

    None. Only implementation of a cohort with data collection via individual self-questionnaires and administrative services for contextual data.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Healthcare workersUp to protocol v2.0: Filling when including a first self-survey concerning the period of the last fifteen days. The following questionnaires will be completed online every week until the end of the study. For healthcare worker who have already presented a symptomatic infection at the time of inclusion, only the self-survey "inclusion" will be completed, it will relate to the period of fifteen days preceding the diagnosis. From protocol v3.0: After performing a RT-PCR or an antigenic test for COVID diagnosis, the healthcare workers will complete a unique self-questionnaire about individual and contextual risks factors during the 15 days preceding the test.

What is being measured

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

  1. SARS-COV-2 infection

    The primary endpoint will be the occurrence of confirmed (RT-PCR or antigenic test or work stopping) SARS-CoV-2 infection.

    Measured: Up to 3 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. SARS-COV-2 incidence regarding hospitals, assigned services and profession

    Information collected by a self questionnaire and service datas

    Measured: Up to 3 months maximum

  2. Individual and contextual risks factors

    Risks factor are collected by a self questionnaire and service datas

    Measured: Up to 3 months maximum

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COVID-19, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Feb 2022. 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 France. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

SARS-COV-2 infection (time frame: Up to 3 months). 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 NCT04386759, 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 7 Feb 2022.
