Study Summary

This trial is researching how well an aerosol box protects HCWs from germs like the coronavirus when performing high-risk medical procedures.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for healthcare workers who perform CPR and other airway management procedures, such as doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists, and physician assistants. They must be certified in Advanced Life Support or Basic Life Support. Those unable to consent or with physical limitations that prevent task performance are excluded.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests the effectiveness of an aerosol box designed to protect healthcare workers from airborne particles during CPR on patients with COVID-19. It aims to understand particle dispersion during these procedures and improve infection control measures.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves a protective device rather than a medication, there are no direct side effects like those associated with drugs. However, potential indirect issues may include reduced accessibility or visibility while performing medical procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is the participant range for this experiment restricted to individuals over twenty years of age?

"This clinical trial seeks out participants aged 18 to 60 years old."

Answered by AI

Who would be an ideal candidate for this research program?

"Eligible participants for this research endeavour must have suffered cardiac arrest and be between 18-60 years old. In total, 240 individuals are being sought out to participate in the study."

Answered by AI

How widespread is the execution of this trial in North America?

"This clinical trial is currently enlisting participants from 4 different sites. The cities of Calgary, Toronto and Montreal are amongst them as well as other nearby locations. To limit the need for travel during participation, it's wise to select a site that's closest to your home area."

Answered by AI

Are there still slots available for participants in this research endeavor?

"Clinicaltrials.gov confirms that this medical trial, initially posted on September 1st 2023, has concluded its recruitment period and is not seeking any more participants. Fortunately there are 854 other studies actively recruiting at the moment."
