COVID-19 Prevalence in UNIVI Geriatric Institutions: Epidemiological Study of Immunological Status With Rapid Serological Tests

NCT04790994 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 1145

Last updated 2021-03-10

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

To date, little information is available on the prevalence of Covid-19 and data are lacking on the proportion of patients, institutional residents and caregivers who have actually been exposed to SARS Cov-2.

With the NG Biotech rapid serological test, an individual's immunological status (presence of IgM and IgG antibodies) can be determined in 15 minutes on a finger-prick blood sample.

The proposed trial will be a noninterventional study of immunological status among the residents and caregivers of 26 nursing homes and 4 geriatric healthcare institutions belonging to the UNIVI Group who are representative of the institutional geriatric population in France. The NG Biotech rapid test will be carried out concomitantly with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests performed within the framework of a national screening campaign. Data on risk factors in staff members and on specific COVID 19 symptoms in residents will also be collected.

The study will terminate for residents and caregivers whose tests are both negative (absence of infection and no exposure to the virus). For residents and caregivers who have at least one positive test, follow-up visits will be scheduled in order to study the serology time course and the occurrence of reinfection (follow-up questionnaire).
