Trial summary

Covid-19 mainly affects the respiratory system. Multiple organ dysfunction and a particularly progressive respiratory insufficiency along with a widespread coagulopathy presumed to be due to infection-associated inflammation and the resulting cytokine storm, are strongly associated with high mortality rates.

About this study

Official title: Thrombosis Risk Assessment May Predict Clinical Presentation and Length of Hospital Stay in Covid-19 Pneumonia

Covid-19 mainly affects the respiratory system. Multiple organ dysfunction and a particularly progressive respiratory insufficiency along with a widespread coagulopathy presumed to be due to infection-associated inflammation and the resulting cytokine storm, are strongly associated with high mortality rates. In this study, the association between thrombosis risk and clinical presentation of Covid-19 is investigated.

Read the detailed description

The severe acute respiratory distress syndrome related coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and its clinical presentation as Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was first reported in Wuhan, Hubei, China in December 2019. It has spread rapidly from its origin in Wuhan City to other countries of the world over the last several months.

Although it mainly affects the respiratory system , multiple organ dysfunction and a particularly progressive respiratory insufficiency along with a widespread coagulopathy presumed to be due to infection-associated inflammation and the resulting cytokine storm, are strongly associated with high mortality rates. SARS-CoV-2 infection may also lead to thrombotic disease both in the venous and arterial circulation of patients apart from respiratory system due to excessive inflammation, thrombocyte activation, endothelial malfunction, and stasis.

Investigators have reported that both CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc scores were related to mortality in individuals that had stable coronary angina, acute coronary syndrome, Takotsubo syndrome or sick sinus syndrome, apart from atrial fibrillation . In addition, thrombocyte/lymphocyte (PLT/LYM) and neutrophil/lymphocyte (NEU/LYM) ratios on admission were also related with thromboembolic complications in former studies which found them useful to predict prognosis of acute pulmonary embolism, as being one of the thromboembolic complications of Covid-19.

Investigators suggest that the parameters mentioned above should also be studied in terms of thrombotic complications of Covid-19. Thus they aimed to find out potential associations between markers of prothrombotic or inflammatory conditions and some clinical features of Covid-19 pneumonia cases on admission and follow-up.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Corona Virus Infection and Thromboembolic Disease, run by Istanbul Nisantasi University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 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 23 Sep 2020. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

length of hospital stay (time frame: 2 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04423315, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 23 Sep 2020.
