Trial summary

It has become apparent that patients with co-morbidities have an increased risk of mortality from coronarvirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, the impact of subclinical respiratory and cardiovascular disease on the outcome of patients with COVID-19 is currently unknown. Read more about this study

About this study

It has become apparent that patients with co-morbidities have an increased risk of mortality from coronarvirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, the impact of subclinical respiratory and cardiovascular disease on the outcome of patients with COVID-19 is currently unknown. This observational study will assess the impact of incidental cardiovascular calcification on radiological imaging on the outcomes of patients with COVD-19.

Read the detailed description

It has become apparent that patients with co-morbidities have an increased risk of mortality from coronarvirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, the impact of subclinical respiratory and cardiovascular disease on the outcome of patients with COVID-19 is currently unknown.

Subclinical respiratory and cardiovascular disease can be identified on radiological imaging. For example, calcification in blood vessels can identify cardiovascular disease, intra-thoracic and intra-abdominal fat is associated with coronary artery disease, and lung diseases can be identified on CT and x-ray. The impact these radiological features on the outcomes of patients with COVID-19 is currently unknown.

This study aims to assess the radiological imaging of patients tested for COVID-19 in order to identify the presence of co-existing respiratory and cardiovascular disease and assess their impact on clinical outcomes.

All patients tested for COVID-19 with current or previous (last 3 years) radiological imaging will be included in this study. Radiological images will be de-identified and assessed for the presence of cardiovascular calcification. Information on COVID-19 tests and clinical factors will be obtained from routinely collected data. Additional clinical information will be obtained from electronic health records as required.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COVID-19 and Coronary Artery Disease, run by University of Edinburgh at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 19 Sep 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 Kingdom. 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?

All cause mortality (time frame: 1 month). 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 Sep 2024.
