  1. International Sexual Health And REproductive (I-SHARE) Health Survey during COVID-19: Study Protocol for Online National Surveys and Global Comparative Analyses

    Date Published: 6/2020
    Format: PDF
    Annotation: COVID-19 may have a profound impact on sexual behaviors, reproductive health, and social life across the world. Shelter-in-place regulations that have extended across the globe may influence condomless sex, exacerbate intimate partner violence, and reduce access to essential reproductive health services. Population-representative research is challenging during shelter-in-place, leaving major gaps in our understanding of sexual and reproductive health during COVID-19. This International Sexual Health And REproductive (I-SHARE) study protocol manuscript describes a common plan for online national surveys and global comparative analyses.

    Methods: The purpose of this cross-sectional study is to better understand sexual and reproductive health in selected countries during COVID-19 and facilitate multi-national comparisons. Participants will be recruited in selected countries through an online survey. The survey link will be disseminated through local, regional, and national networks. In each country, a lead organization will be responsible for organizing ethical review, translation, and survey administration. The consortium network provides support for national studies, coordination, and multi-national comparison. We will use multi-level modeling to determine the relationship between COVID-19 and condomless sex, gender-based violence, access to reproductive health services, HIV testing, and other key items. This study protocol defines primary outcomes, pre-specified subanalyses, and analysis plans.

    The I-SHARE study examines sexual and reproductive health at the national and global level. We will use multi-level modeling to examine country-level variables associated with outcomes of interest. This will provide a foundation for subsequent online multi-country comparison using more robust sampling methodologies.

    Format: Text
    Annotation: The ISARIC COVID-19 Long term protocol & Case Report Form (CRF) survey is designed to follow up adults and children with COVID-19 over time. It can be used for one off or serial follow up of patients post-hospital discharge and for people who were not hospitalized. It is designed to enable patient self-assessment or clinical led assessment, via post, telephone, online or in-clinic visit for wide dissemination and inclusion using limited resources. It can be combined with sampling and further diagnostics.

    Date Published: 7/16/2015
    Format: PDF
    Annotation: This 62-page document provides a pre-planned research study protocol to be used for rapidly implementing a new study at the time of a disaster. The protocol provides the information and documents for creating a research registry of disaster response workers who are rostered before or immediately after deployment to a disaster area. The protocol provides the steps for gathering sociodemographic, health status, occupational exposure, and lifestyle information of the cohort before or immediately after deployment to a disaster area. The protocol includes documents needed to conduct the research such as an informed consent form, enrollment information and questionnaires. The goal is to have all documents and steps developed before a disaster for rapid deployment at the time of a disaster. Researchers may also use this protocol as a model for developing additional ready-to-use protocols for other disaster research efforts....[See more] [See less]

    Source: Oregon State University
    Date Published: 9/2017
    Format: Text
    Annotation: The Oregon State University Superfund Research Program and the Pacific Northwest Center for Translational Environmental Health are focused on chemical exposures before, during and after disasters. The Centers developed a broad Disaster Protocol, enabling rapid responses to disasters. In the case of Hurricane Harvey, using the pre-positioned protocol, researchers were able to obtain project-specific human subjects ethical approval and initiate data collection within three weeks of Harvey making landfall in Houston. The protocol pairs the passive sampling wristband with a short, self-report, online-based questionnaire administered via Qualtrics. The passive sampler can be stored at room temperature and mailed to participants with simple written instructions. Participants wear the wristband, typically for seven days. During that time, the wristband passively sequesters exposure to semi-volatile and volatile organic compounds. Participants return the wristband via mail with a pre-paid envelope. Currently, the wristband can be analyzed for over 1,530 chemical analytes. Training materials and recruitment materials are available online: https://superfund.oregonstate.edu/disaster-irb

    Date Published: 4/8/2020
    Format: PDF
    Annotation: This is the protocol for the "Impact of COVID-19 on People Living with Rare Disease and their Families" (https://dr2.nlm.nih.gov/search/?q=22513). The survey is a brief, self-report, online-based questionnaire administered via REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture system) to:

    1) Estimate the proportion of patients who live with rare diseases who have been diagnosed with COVID-19 infection;
    2) Describe the characteristics of the COVID-19 presentation and the course of the infection (including treatment) among patients with rare diseases;
    3) Determine whether subgroups of patients defined by sociodemographic variables, geographic location, with particular rare conditions or comorbidity have been affected more frequently or have experienced increased severity of the infection;
    4) Learn about potential interaction between specific treatment regimens and COVID-19 infection, and specifically whether certain antibiotic, immunosuppressive, or anti-inflammatory drugs are associated with the frequency of COVID-19 infection and its severity;
    5) Assess the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the life of rare disease patients and their families, including their access to medical care and routine medication;
    6) Learn about the main concerns that people who live with rare diseases and their families have with respect to COVID-19, and determine how the RDCRN can respond by providing information and advice through its network of experts, its consortia, and in collaboration with patient advocacy groups; and
    7) Allow follow-up for patients and families who agree to provide contact information, and linkage of information collected in the survey with data maintained by the RDCRN for patients enrolled in RDCRN research studies.
