CLoCK study
 | This article is a stub. |
The CLoCk study or Non-hospitalised Children & young people (CYP) with Long Covid is a British Long COVID study announced in February 2021.[1] Led by Professor Sir Terence Stephenson as PI, this research project is intended to identify long COVID symptoms in non-hospitalised children and young people, evaluate risk and prevalence, and establish a medical diagnosis for the condition. The study will enroll 6,000 children and young people, divided into one group of 3,000 who have tested positive for COVID-19 and one group of 3,000 who have not. Participants will be asked to assess their physical and mental problems at regular intervals up to 24 months after infection.[2] Results are expected to be published, made available to participants, and used to inform NHS health policy and individual medical practice.[3]
Funding[edit | edit source]
In 2021, the CLoCk study was awarded £1.36 million in funding by the National Institute for Health Research.[1][4]
