Trial summary

The damage of the endothelial glycocalyx is based on microvascular endothelial dysfunction and typical for critical clinical conditions like sepsis, trauma, bleeding, shock, as well as ARDS. We aim to generate first hints regarding the impact of covid-19 disease on the (damage) of the endothelial glycocalyx. Read more about this study

About this study

The damage of the endothelial glycocalyx is based on microvascular endothelial dysfunction and typical for critical clinical conditions like sepsis, trauma, bleeding, shock, as well as ARDS. We aim to generate first hints regarding the impact of covid-19 disease on the (damage) of the endothelial glycocalyx. Furthermore, we want to investigate the potential coagulopathies, which go along with shedding of the glycocalyx. The detection of and the relation between the severity of the disease, as well as the extent of the glycocalyx damage during the observational period, as well as the hemostatic alterations, are aim of the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COVID-19 and Endothelial Dysfunction, run by Medical University of Vienna at 1 site in Austria.

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 2 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 30 Nov 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 Austria. 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?

extent of endothelial damage (time frame: up to 2 months). 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 30 Nov 2021.
