What is being measured

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

  1. Probability of Participants for Hospitalisation or Fatal Outcome

    Measured: Detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome- Corona Virus 2 (SARS-CoV2) to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Probability of Participants for Intensive Care Unit Admission

    Measured: Detection of SARS-CoV2 to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks

  2. Probability of Participants for Fatal Outcome

    Measured: Detection of SARS-CoV2 to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks

  3. Prediction of persisting health impairment by using standardized questionnaires

    Measured: Detection of SARS-CoV2 to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks

  4. Detection of symptoms, vital parameters and comorbidities predicting clinical course

    Measured: Detection of SARS-CoV2 to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks

  5. Influence of size of training data set

    Measured: Detection of SARS-CoV2 to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks

  6. Influence of viral load on the course of disease/ clinical outcome

    Measured: Detection of SARS-CoV2 to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks

  7. Influence of different virus variants on the course of disease/ clinical outcome

    Measured: Detection of SARS-CoV2 to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks

  8. Influence of SARS-CoV2 vaccination (yes/no) on the course of disease/ clinical outcome

    Measured: Detection of SARS-CoV2 to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks

  9. Evaluation of parameters (symptoms, vital parameters, comorbidities) according to their potential of clinical course predictions

    Measured: Detection of SARS-CoV2 to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks

  10. Probability of Participants for hospitalisation

    Measured: Detection of SARS-CoV2 to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks

  11. Influence of different SARS-CoV2 vaccines on the course of disease/ clinical outcome

    Measured: Detection of SARS-CoV2 to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Covid19, run by University Hospital Tuebingen at 1 site in Germany.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Apr 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 Germany. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Annika Buchholz, PhD (+49 151 51819576, annika.buchholz@tuebingen.mpg.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Probability of Participants for Hospitalisation or Fatal Outcome (time frame: Detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome- Corona Virus 2 (SARS-CoV2) to recovery, hospitalisation or fatal outcome up to 5 weeks). 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 2 Apr 2021.
