About this study

The GW Medical Faculty Associates recently launched a remote monitoring program for patients diagnosed with COVID-19. Patients are provided with a home pulse oximeter and thermometer. Participants complete daily surveys about their symptoms and vital signs and are escalated to receive phone calls and video visits if responses are abnormal.

Investigators would like to complete a study of the program to understand:

  1. Operational parameters of program performance, such as how many patients were enrolled and how many patients completed monitoring
  2. Clinical course of patients, including their reported symptoms over time and clinical endpoints such as hospitalization or ICU admission
  3. Patient satisfaction with program
Read the detailed description

The SARS-CoV-2 that emerged in late 2019 has been noted to have a wide range of presentations, from asymptomatic and mild cases to those requiring intubation, ECMO, and critical care. As it is a novel pathogen, clinicians and scientists are only beginning understand when and who will require hospital-based resources such as oxygen, hospitalization, or ICU admission. The Medical Faculty Associates (MFA) COVID-19 Remote Monitoring Program (RPM) was developed to provide a daily touchpoint for patients during their COVID-19 course, including ready connection to paramedics and physicians when needed. The program was launched with the goal of identifying clinical decompensation early, maximizing available healthcare capacity, and minimizing nosocomial COVID-19 spread and healthcare worker exposure.

Investigators would like to perform analyses to test multiple hypotheses, including:

  1. Patients discharged with a diagnosis of COVID-19 will be able to participate in a remote monitoring program.
  2. A COVID-19 remote monitoring program will benefit patients.
  3. Patients will be satisfied with their experience of a remote monitoring program and will have lower anxiety about their COVID-19 illness.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Covid19 and Infectious Disease, run by George Washington University at 1 site in United States.

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 2 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 1 Mar 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 United States. 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?

Patient referred (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 7 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 1 Mar 2024.
