Rhythm; Abnormal clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

The Use of a Monitoring Device by General Practitioners During Out-of-hours Care

Start date: May 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

All calls that end up on the out-of-hours general practitioners' service (OHGPS), which contain a demand for an urgent home visit, are passed on to the on-call general practitioner (GP). These calls are randomized into two arms: after the patient's informed consent, they are assigned either to one arm where the monitoring device, PICO, is applied together with the GP's general care or to the other arm where only the usual care is provided. All data such as suspected diagnosis, treatment or referral, influence of the parameters, ECG and/or alarms on the management and the user-friendliness are recorded. After 30 days, the diagnosis and evolution is requested from the patient's own GP or, if referred to a hospital, in the hospital in order to be able to compare the effect of the approach by the GP between both arms. The aim is to investigate if 1/ the use of the PICO monitoring device could improve GPs' decisions to refer to hospital or not in urgent cases; 2/ there is a difference between the diagnosis with and without the use of the monitoring device using the final diagnosis by the electronic health record of the own GP of the patient; 3/ the call to send a GP for an emergency contained sufficient information for the OHGPS phone operator to take an appropriate decision; 4/ the build-in alarms help the GP during his intervention; 5/ the PICO is easy to use during an emergency; 6/ the use of the device makes them feel more confident in transmitting the information to the Medical Emergency Team.
