Research Studies & Recruitment
Covid 19 Outpatient Proning Pilot Study
To facilitate referrals to the outpatient proning pilot study we’re simplifying eligibility criteria: please consider referring ANY patient with (probable) COVID-19 that you intend to discharge home. You do NOT need to consider additional suitability criteria beyond these two basics.
Linda, our clinical research nurse, can provide patients with study details and answer any questions they may have. She’ll also determine their eligibility for enrolment.
It may be easiest to use the following script:
"We’re conducting a research study for COVID-19 patients recovering at home.
Would you mind if a study nurse contacted you about participating?"
If your patient says YES, SEND their information (NAME, DOB and J#) to our clinical research nurse, Linda Karnay via voicemail or hospital email:
416-530-6000 x 4489 (leave voicemail)
