HEAL-COVID is jointly Sponsored by Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and The University of Cambridge.
The acute effects of COVID-19 are now well described. Evidence is emerging of serious longer-term complications occurring in the convalescent phase of the illness in a significant proportion of patientsÍľ particularly cardiovascular and pulmonary complications.
The ill-defined syndrome, "Long COVID" is likely to include a constellation of different conditions traversing post-ICU syndromes, significant cardiopulmonary complications, post-viral syndromes and exacerbations of underlying conditions. Patients have reported a range of longer-term symptoms associated with Long COVID that have significant impacts on their quality of life.
To date, there has been little work evaluating treatments in the convalescent phase of COVID-19. HEAL-COVID aims to evaluate the impact of treatments on longer-term morbidity, mortality, re-hospitalisation, symptom burden and quality of life associated with COVID-19.
The first two treatment arms are Apixaban and Atorvastatin, with further treatment arms to be added at the direction of the UK COVID-19 Therapeutic Advisory Panel (UKCTAP).
