Neural Mechanisms of Fatigue in Post-Acute Sequela of SARS-CoV-2

Part of paid clinical trials in Baltimore, Maryland.

Sponsor
Hugo W. Moser Research Institute at Kennedy Krieger, Inc.
Study ID
NCT07278388
Status
Recruiting

Conditions

  • Fatigue
  • PASC Post Acute Sequelae of COVID 19

Eligibility Criteria

Sex
ALL
Age
18 Years - 75 Years
Healthy Volunteers
Accepted

Interventions

  • Physical Fatigue — BEHAVIORAL
    Participants will perform a physically demanding task (grip force exertion task) repeatedly to induce physical fatigue.

Study Details

This proposal aims to understand the neurobiological mechanisms of fatigue in individuals with Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 Infection (PASC). This knowledge will eventually provide candidate mechanisms to target with pharmacological intervention and inform rehabilitative care for those individuals suffering from symptoms of fatigue in PASC.

Arms

  • Experimental: PASC Participants - Physical Fatigue Task
    Participants will perform a physically demanding task (grip force exertion task) repeatedly to induce physical fatigue.
  • Experimental: Control Participants - Physical Fatigue Task
    Participants will perform a physically demanding task (grip force exertion task) repeatedly to induce physical fatigue.

Primary Outcome Measure

Comparison between PASC and HC - difference in mean Assessment Error [ Time Frame: Baseline, during experimental protocol. ]
