About this study

The subject of the study is the impact of COVID-19 on the indicators of myocardial efficiency and exercise capacity. As a result of the observed dependencies, it will be possible to start an appropriate diagnostic procedure early, select personalized treatment and develop a model of cardiological care for people with a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection and improve the quality and extend their life.

Read the detailed description

About 100 adult patients hospitalized in the Department of Cardiology and Congenital Heart Diseases of Adults who had recovered from COVID-19 will be included in the study. Selected prognostic factors will be analyzed, among others: demographic data of the patient, physical examination, symptoms, co-morbidities, results of selected laboratory tests, lung imaging (X-ray or computed tomography) selected electrocardiographic and echocardiographic data, patient's cooperation with the doctor, treatment applied, parameters in the spiroergometric study, body mass analysis. One year after inclusion in the study, a control hospitalization will be performed. The same factors will be analyzed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prognosis in patients who have recovered from COVID-19

    A control hospitalization will be conducted with patients. The same prognostic factors will be analyzed: physical examination, symptoms, co-morbidities, treatment applied, results of selected laboratory tests, lung imaging (X-ray or computed tomography) selected electrocardiographic (ECG) and echocardiographic data, parameters in the spiroergometric study, body mass analysis.

    Measured: 12 months after inclusion in the study

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Review of selected laboratory tests in patients who have recovered from COVID-19

    Diagnostic blood samples will be collected from each patient: N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and high sensitive cardiac Troponin T (hsTnT), the alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (ASP), creatinine, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimate by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) parameters, inflammatory cytokine [C-reactive protein (CRP)], glucose level, lipoprotein profile: low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL), triglycerides (TG) and total cholesterol (TC). Also, the amount of hemoglobin will be performed.

    Measured: 12 months after inclusion in the study

  2. The imaging of pulmonary changes in patients who have recovered from COVID-19

    Chest X-ray or lung computed tomography will be performed.

    Measured: 12 months after inclusion in the study

  3. Review of selected Holter ECG monitoring data in patients who have recovered from COVID-19

    Analysis of average heart rate, ST segment abnormality (elevation or depression), the presence of: atrioventricular delay (AV block), bundle branch block, supraventricular and ventricular extrasystoles, atrial fibrillation (AF).

    Measured: 12 months after inclusion in the study

  4. Review of selected echocardiographic data in patients who have recovered from COVID-19

    Measurement of left ventricular (LV) volume and ejection fraction (EF), left atrial (LA) volume, LA volume index (LAVi), maximal early (E) and late (A) transmitral velocities, ratio of early transmitral peak velocity to early diastolic peak annular velocity (E/E'), early diastolic (E'), late diastolic (A') mitral annular myocardial velocity of the left ventricle, LAVi/A', tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE).

    Measured: 12 months after inclusion in the study

  5. Review of parameters in the spiroergometric study in patients who have recovered from COVID-19

    Forced vital capacity (FVC),forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), FEV1/FVC ratio, VO2max (represents the maximal achievable level of oxidative metabolism involving large muscle groups), ventilatory exchange (VE), oxygen uptake (VO2), CO2 expenditure (VCO2), respiratory exchange ratio (RER), anaerobic threshold (AT), oxygen uptake at anaerobic threshold (VO2 AT), the minute ventilation/carbon dioxide production slope (VE/VCO2 slope) will be performed.

    Measured: 12 months after inclusion in the study

  6. Body mass analysis in patients who have recovered from COVID-19

    Body composition measurement will be conducted using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). Fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM), total body water (TBW), extra-cellular (ECW) and intra-cellular (ICW) water, ECW/TBWx100% will be measured.

    Measured: 12 months after inclusion in the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Covid19 and Heart Failure, run by Polish Mother Memorial Hospital Research Institute at 1 site in Poland.

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 24 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 3 Apr 2024. 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 Poland. 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?

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?

Prognosis in patients who have recovered from COVID-19 (time frame: 12 months after inclusion in the study). 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 NCT04828629, which also lists 2 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.

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 3 Apr 2024.
