Trial summary

This study will evaluate the associations between vascular parameters and clinical outcomes in patients hospitalized with COVID-19. The vascular function and structure of individuals with COVID-19 admitted to the General Hospital of the University of Sao Paulo will be assessed in the first 72 hours of hospitalization.

About this study

Official title: Prognostic Value of Flow-mediated Dilation in Hospitalized Patients With SARS-CoV-2 Infection: an Observational Prospective Study

This study will evaluate the associations between vascular parameters and clinical outcomes in patients hospitalized with COVID-19.

The vascular function and structure of individuals with COVID-19 admitted to the General Hospital of the University of Sao Paulo will be assessed in the first 72 hours of hospitalization. Then, participants will be followed up until hospital discharge/death.

Logistical regressions will be run to evaluate if vascular function/structure can predict ICU admissions, intubation, thrombosis or death.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective cohort study conducted at the General Hospital of the University of São Paulo Medical School (HCFMUSP). Male and female participants with SARS-CoV-2 and recently admitted to the hospital (≤ 72 hours) will be recruited at the emergency department and outpatient clinics at the HCFMUSP. Immediately upon recruitment, participants will perform the assessment of flow mediated dilation of the brachial artery and the assessment of carotid intima-media thickness. Subsequently, they will be followed during the entire period of hospitalization.

The present study will employ as primary endpoint a composite of ICU admission, intubation or mortality during the period of hospitalization. Cardiovascular complications, such as arterial (AE), deep venous (DVP) or pulmonary embolism (PE) , acute myocardial infarction (AMI), stroke, cardiac arrest, atrial fibrillation and acute kidney injury will be considered secondary endpoints.

The association between the vascular parameters and clinical outcomes will be examined by a multivariate logistic regression.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Covid19 and SARS-CoV Infection, run by University of Sao Paulo General Hospital at 1 site in Brazil.

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 19 Jan 2021. 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 Brazil. 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 Tiago Peçanha, PhD (11948243542, tiagopecanha@usp.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Composite outcome (time frame: Up to hospital discharge, an average of 4 weeks). 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 19 Jan 2021.
