About this study

Official title: Prospective Study for the Assessment of Long-term Impact of COVID-19 Among COVID-19 Patients With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Brazil

The present multicenter prospective observational study aims to assess the long-term effects of COVID-19 on patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).

This is a hybrid design study with components of cohort and case-control designs. Survivors of hospitalization due to ARDS caused by SARS-CoV-2, survivors of hospitalization due to ARDS caused by other etiologies not associated with SARS-CoV-2, and family controls without history of COVID-19 or hospitalization will be followed up for a period of 6 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide

    Proportion of participants with diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide < 80% of predicted

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed 6 months after enrollment

Secondary outcomes (19)
  1. Physical functional status

    Physical functional status as assessed by the modified Barthel index (score ranges from 0 to 100; higher scores indicate less functional dependence)

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3 and 6 months after enrollment

  2. Instrumental Activities of Daily Living

    The outcome will be assessed using the Lawton \& Brody Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale (the score ranges from 0 to 8, with higher scores indicating less dependence)

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3 and 6 months after enrollment

  3. Muscular function and strength

    Muscular function and strength as assessed by Strength, assistance with walking, rising from a chair, climbing stairs, and falls (SARC-F) questionnaire. Scale scores range from 0 (best) to 10 (worst)

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3 and 6 months after enrollment

  4. Score of dyspnea

    The outcome will be assessed using the modified medical research council dyspnea scale. Scores ranges from 0 to 4, with higher scores indicating worse symptoms.

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3 and 6 months after enrollment

  5. Utility score of health related quality of life

    The outcome will be assessed using the Brazilian version of the Euroqol-5D-3L (EQ-5D3L) questionnaire. The utility score derived from the EQ5D-3L ranges from 0 (death) to 1 (perfect health).

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3 and 6 months after enrollment

  6. Radiologic patterns of intersticial lung disease

    Radiologic patterns of intersticial lung disease as assessed by high resolution computed tomography chest scan.

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 6 months after enrollment

  7. Radiologic patterns of myocarditis sequalae

    Radiologic patterns of myocarditis sequalae as assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 6 months after enrollment

  8. Radiologic patterns of sarcopenia

    Radiologic patterns of sarcopenia as assessed by high resolution computed tomography chest scan.

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 6 months after enrollment

  9. Incidence of major cardiovascular events

    Incidence of major cardiovascular events (composite endpoint of non-fatal stroke, non-fatal acute myocardial infarction, or cardiovascular death)

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3 and 6 months after enrollment

  10. Incidence of thromboembolic events

    Incidence of thromboembolic events (composite endpoint of pulmonary embolism and deep venous thrombosis)

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3 and 6 months after enrollment

  11. Incidence of all-cause mortality

    Incidence of all-cause mortality

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 3 and 6 months after enrollment

  12. Percentage of predicted peak oxygen consumption

    Percentage of predicted peak oxygen consumption as assessed by treadmill cardiopulmonary exercise cardiopulmonary exercise

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 6 months after enrollment

  13. Peak oxygen consumption

    Peak oxygen as assessed by treadmill cardiopulmonary exercise

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 6 months after enrollment

  14. Peak oxygen pulse

    Peak oxygen pulse as assessed by treadmill cardiopulmonary exercise

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 6 months after enrollment

  15. Oxygen uptake efficiency slope

    Oxygen uptake efficiency slope as assessed by treadmill cardiopulmonary exercise

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 6 months after enrollment

  16. Minute ventilation/carbon dioxide production slope ratio

    Minute ventilation/carbon dioxide production slope as assessed by treadmill cardiopulmonary exercise

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 6 months after enrollment

  17. Forced vital capacity

    Forced expiratory capacity as assessed by spirometry

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 6 months after enrollment

  18. Forced expiratory volume in one second

    Forced expiratory volume in one second as assessed by spirometry

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 6 months after enrollment

  19. Forced expiratory volume in one second/ Forced vital capacity ratio

    Forced expiratory volume in one second/ Forced vital capacity ratio as assessed by spirometry

    Measured: The outcome will be assessed at 6 months after enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COVID-19 and ARDS, run by Hospital Moinhos de Vento.

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 11 inclusion and 18 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 4 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Contact Geraldine Trott, PhD (+5551994407117, geraldine.trott@hmv.org.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide (time frame: The outcome will be assessed 6 months after enrollment). 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 4 Feb 2022.
