Cosmic Weather and Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema

Pulmonary Edema Cardiac Cause Clinical Trial

Official title: Impact of Cosmic Weather on Pre-hospital Incidence of Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Retrospective clinical study to evaluate whether there is any correlation between the pre-hospital incidence of cardiogenic pulmonary oedema (CPE) in the selected region and the space weather parameters.

Clinical Trial Description

Emergency Medical Service of the Central Bohemian Region is the exclusive provider of primary pre-hospital emergency care in the Central Bohemian Region, Czech Republic. The region includes both the rural and urban population, in total of 1 315 299 inhabitants on a total area of 11 015 km2. A computer search of patients with dyspnoea between 1.10.2008 and 30.6.2014 will be conducted and all cases of cardiogenic pulmonary oedema will be selected.

Physical parameters of space weather and geomagnetic field disturbances will be obtained from the database of Institute of Experimental Physics, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Slovak Republic. The datasets will be analysed whether there is any correlation between the pre-hospital incidence of CPE in the selected region and the parameters of space weather and geomagnetic field disturbances. ;
