About this study

Official title: Relevance of the Multiplex PCR Approach for Severe Respiratory Infections of Patients Hospitalized - Including an Intensive Care Unit, During the COVID-19 Pandemic

The hypothesis was that a retrospective investigation of the molecular virological tests in a University hospital could be informative, with the aim to identify non-COVID-19 respiratory viruses during the circulation of SARS-CoV-2, according to systematic population data for public health knowledge.

Read the detailed description

The hypothesis was that a retrospective investigation of the molecular virological tests in a University hospital could be informative, with the aim to identify non-COVID-19 respiratory viruses during the circulation of SARS-CoV-2, according to systematic population data for public health knowledge:

  • the main goal was to perform a retrospective investigation of the molecular virological tests in a University hospital, in order to identify non-COVID-19 respiratory viruses from the beginning of 2021 to mid-2022 during the circulation of SARS-CoV-2, for public health knowledge;
  • the secondary aim was to retrospectively analyze, for a small subgroup of patients from an intensive care unit, the files of patients with positive molecular virological tests for non-COVID-19 respiratory viruses from the beginning of 2021 to mid-2022, reporting the following standard-of-care data: (i) the identification of the viruses, (ii) bioclinical features, (iii) medical impact of virological results in real life.

What is being measured

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

  1. Occurrence of positive viral PCR assays (not COVID-19) from hospitalizations for respiratory infections.

    Number of patients with positive virological molecular tests (multiplex respiratory panels) from the beginning of 2021 to mid-2022, with the nature of the viruses detected and the chronology of occurrence of positive tests.

    Measured: 18 months, retrospectively

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Real-life features of patients in Intensive care (from the whole population - Outcome 1) with positive viral PCR during infectious pneumonia.

    For the group of patients in Intensive Care:

    • (i) number of positive molecular virological tests detecting respiratory viruses by FilmArray Pneumonia test
    • (ii) associated bioclinical data
    • (iii) medical impact of virological results in real life - progression of the infection and duration of thehospitalization.

    Measured: 18 months, retrospectively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Viral Pneumonia, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France at 1 site in France.

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 1 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 18 Feb 2025. 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 France. 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?

Occurrence of positive viral PCR assays (not COVID-19) from hospitalizations for respiratory infections. (time frame: 18 months, retrospectively). 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 18 Feb 2025.
