About this study

Official title: Impact of Cosmic Weather on Pre-hospital Incidence of Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema

Retrospective clinical study to evaluate whether there is any correlation between the pre-hospital incidence of cardiogenic pulmonary oedema (CPE) in the selected region and the space weather parameters.

Read the detailed description

Emergency Medical Service of the Central Bohemian Region is the exclusive provider of primary pre-hospital emergency care in the Central Bohemian Region, Czech Republic. The region includes both the rural and urban population, in total of 1 315 299 inhabitants on a total area of 11 015 km2. A computer search of patients with dyspnoea between 1.10.2008 and 30.6.2014 will be conducted and all cases of cardiogenic pulmonary oedema will be selected.

Physical parameters of space weather and geomagnetic field disturbances will be obtained from the database of Institute of Experimental Physics, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Slovak Republic. The datasets will be analysed whether there is any correlation between the pre-hospital incidence of CPE in the selected region and the parameters of space weather and geomagnetic field disturbances.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Edema Cardiac Cause, run by Emergency Medical Service of the Central Bohemian Region, Czech Republic at 1 site in Czechia.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 29 Jul 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 Czechia. 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?

Significant correlation between incidence of CPE and activity of the space weather (time frame: 4 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 29 Jul 2020.
