About this study

Official title: Multimodal IMAgery (Echocardiography and Cardiac MRI) Characterization of Cardiac Damage and Severity After COVID-19 Infection

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infection caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), which affects multiple organ system particularly the lung and heart. Indeed, SARS CoV-2 has various cardiac manifestations which are associated with higher mortality and morbidity. Cardiac involvement, based on elevated levels of myocardial enzymes, have been described in 20 to 30% of COVID-19 infection. However, the physiopathological mechanisms of myocardial injury remains unclear. Main hypothesis include inflammation and cytokine storm, hypercoagulability and vascular thrombosis, inflammation or stress leading to coronary plaque rupture (type I myocardial infarction), supply-demand mismatch and hypoxemia resulting in myocardial damage (type II myocardial infarction) ...

Two patterns can be identified : ischemic or non-ischemic pattern including myocarditis, stress induced cardiomyopathy, thrombo-embolic disease. However, the consequences of myocardial damage after confirmed COVID-19 infection are unknown at medium to long term prognosis.

Data are needed to identify myocardial damage and to guide effective therapies and follow-up (use of ACE inhibitor, beta-blockers, steroids...? ) In this study, the investigators proposed to collect multimodal cardiac imaging including MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and TTE (Transthoracic echocardiogram) in order to identify and characterize cardiac injury as ischemic or non-ischemic pattern, to better assess risk stratification and to guide effective therapies if necessary.

What is being measured

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

  1. To Characterize cardiac involvement by cardiac TTE imaging during 4 months after confirmed COVID-19 infection

    Cardiac TTE imaging is performed during 4 months after COVID-19 infection in patients with suspected cardiac involvement (increase troponin level>50ng/ml or left ventricular dysfunction during hospitalisation for COVID-19 infection) in order to determine tissular characterization, in particular the presence of ischemic or non-ischemic pattern.

    Measured: 1 to 4 months after COVID 19 infection

  2. To Characterize cardiac involvement by cardiac MRI during 4 months after confirmed COVID-19 infection

    Cardiac MRI is performed during 4 months after COVID-19 infection in patients with suspected cardiac involvement (increase troponin level>50ng/ml or left ventricular dysfunction during hospitalisation for COVID-19 infection) in order to determine tissular characterization, in particular the presence of ischemic or non-ischemic pattern.

    Measured: 1 to 4 months after COVID 19 infection

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To characterize cardiac evolution at 12 +/-2 months from COVID-19 infection

    Cardiac imaging are performed 12 +/-2 months after COVID-19 infection

    Measured: 12 +/- 2 months

  2. To evaluate Cardiac events at 12 +/-2 months from COVID-19 infection

    Follow-up at 12+/-2 months from COVID-19 infection :

    • medical consultation to collect cardiac events (heart failure, arrythmias, chest pain).

    Measured: 12+/-2 months

  3. To evaluate all cause deaths at 12 +/-2 months from COVID-19 infection

    Follow-up at 12+/-2 months from COVID-19 infection :

    • status (dead or alive)

    Measured: 12+/-2 months

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?

To Characterize cardiac involvement by cardiac TTE imaging during 4 months after confirmed COVID-19 infection (time frame: 1 to 4 months after COVID 19 infection). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04753762, which also lists 11 linked publications.

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.
