Dissemination of SARS-COV-2 (COVID-19) in the Environment of Infected Patients Admitted to Intensive Care Unit

NCT04355481 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 150

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The objective of this protocol is to estimate the proportion of patients hospitalized in intensive care unit for a SARS-Cov-2 viral lung infection and contaminating their environment at 1 meter. The contamination will be assessed by quantifying the viral RNA by RT-PCR on a 600-liter air sample aspirated by a Coriolis® system. This sample will be taken within 48 hours after the confirmation of SARS-Cov-2 infection, documented by RT-PCR. In fact, the hospital hygiene measures practiced in intensive care unit in patients with viral respiratory infection are identical to those practiced in other services. These measures are possibly insufficient as evidenced by recent data related to the COVID-19 epidemic.
