Interventions
Device: COViage
Registration Number
NCT04423991
Lead Sponsor
Dascena
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to assess the performance of a machine learning algorithm which identifies patients for whom hydroxychloroquine treatment is associated with predicted survival.

Detailed Description

In a multi-center pragmatic clinical trial, COVID-19 positive patients admitted to 6 United States medical centers were enrolled between March 10 and June 4, 2020. A machine learning algorithm was used to determine which patients were suitable for treatment with hydroxychloroquine.
