Plain English summary of protocol

Background and study aims:
Two large ongoing studies, the UK Obstetric Surveillance System (UKOSS) and the British Paediatric Surveillance Unit (BPSU), identified 3000 pregnant women and 100 newborn babies who were hospitalized with the Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19) infection so far. Most of these pregnant women gave birth at term (at 37 weeks of gestation or more) and most of the newborn babies who had Coronavirus infection were also born at term. Almost all of these babies were well or were only mildly affected by the virus shortly after birth. Recent research shows that Coronavirus infection in children and adults may affect the brain. Since the development of term-born babies is not routinely checked by health professionals, we will not know whether Coronavirus infection during pregnancy or shortly after birth will affect their development as they grow. This study therefore aims to check the development of babies exposed to Coronavirus infection and compare it with the development of babies who did not have Coronavirus infection to find out if there are any lasting effects.

Who can participate?
Three groups of potential participants will be invited to take part:
1. Infants who had COVID-19 within 28 days after birth (neonatal exposure group)
2. Infants born to mothers who had COVID-19 during pregnancy (antenatal exposure group)
3. Infants who did not have COVID-19 in the first 28 days after birth, and whose mothers who did not have COVID-19 during pregnancy (comparison group)

What does the study involve?
Hospitals across the UK will send study invitation letters and information packs to mothers of infants who are eligible to take part in this study. These study information packs will include paper copies of the consent form and study entry questionnaire. Links to online versions of these forms will also be provided in the information pack. Mothers of eligible infants who would like to take part in the study will be asked to return the completed forms to the University of Bristol using the prepaid addressed return envelope provided in the information pack, or to complete the online versions of these forms if preferred. The study entry questionnaire will ask mothers to provide a contact address (email or postal) or phone number. These details will be used to contact mothers when their child is 18-24 months of age to invite them to complete questionnaires about how their child is developing. These development questionnaires can be filled in online, or if preferred, paper versions of the questionnaire will be posted along with a prepaid addressed return envelope. If translation to a different language is needed, questionnaires can be completed over the phone using translation services. These questionnaires will include the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) which is a validated questionnaire used by professionals to monitor a child’s developmental progress. The researchers will also ask some information about the child’s medical history and health care usage.

What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
This study will help the researchers to understand whether contracting Coronavirus during pregnancy may affect how a baby develops later in life. Although there is no direct benefit to participating, this information will help to organise support for families and children if a woman contracts Coronavirus during pregnancy and will help the NHS develop guidance and support for pregnant women. The researchers will also inform the parents of the children taking part in the study on the results of their child’s development, as assessed from the questionnaire they complete. They also plan to follow the development of children recruited into the study as they grow up. There are no disadvantages in taking part in the study. Completing the questionnaires will require up to 30 minutes.

Where is the study run from?
The study is run by the research team who are based at the University of Bristol, the National Perinatal Epidemiology Unit at the University of Oxford, the Department of Health Sciences at the University of Leicester, and Imperial College, London (UK)

When is the study starting and how long is it expected to run for?

Scientific titleSARS-CoV-2 Infection in NEonates or in Pregnancy: Outcomes at EighTeen months (SINEPOST)
Study acronymSINEPOST
Study objectivesAntenatal and/or neonatal exposure to SARS-CoV-2 impacts infants’ development at 18-24 months of age.
Ethics approval(s)Approved 04/05/2021, London - Westminster Research Ethics Committee (The Old Chapel, Royal Standard Place, Nottingham, NG1 6FS, UK; +44 (0)207 1048310; westminster.rec@hra.nhs.uk), ref: 21/PR/0431
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedCOVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2 infection)
InterventionSINEPOST is a population-based cohort study that is linked to the national surveillance studies of pregnant women (UK Obstetric Surveillance System) and newborn babies (British Paediatric Surveillance Unit, BPSU) hospitalized with confirmed Coronavirus infection. The SINEPOST study will determine the impact of antenatal or neonatal exposure to the Coronavirus infection on the developmental outcomes at 18 months of age.

The study will apply for the Urgent Public Health Research Status and will operate through the Reproductive Health and Childbirth and Children’s Clinical Research Network (CRN). The study will begin at the Bristol hospitals, Imperial College and Nottingham. Each site will have a local principal investigator who will provide the clinical leadership. Once the study commences, the study coordinator based at the National Perinatal Epidemiology Unit in the University of Oxford will actively approach the Clinical Research Networks around the UK for inclusion in the SINEPOST study.

The Study Coordinator will send the study packs to the site PIs/CRN research nurses either through email or post. The study packs will contain a letter inviting the women or parent to participate in the study from respective hospital trusts, parent information sheet, consent form and a study entry questionnaire with a unique SINEPOST ID. The participant information sheet, consent form and the study entry questionnaire for the antenatal exposure and the neonatal exposure cohort will contain the UKOSS and the BPSU study ID in addition to the SINEPOST ID.

Antenatal exposure and comparator cohort recruitment
The CRN research nurses will find the personal information of women who had the Coronavirus infection during pregnancy from locally held information using the UKOSS ID. They will add the personal information and address to the study pack and send the study pack to women eligible for the antenatal exposure cohort. The CRN research nurses will choose one woman who had term singleton babies but did not have Coronavirus infection during pregnancy on either side of the woman who had the Coronavirus infection during pregnancy. The CRN research nurses will add the personal information and address to the study pack. The study pack will be sent to the potential participants.

Neonatal exposure cohort recruitment
The CRN research nurses will identify the personal information of children who had SRAS-CoV-2 infection shortly after birth using the BPSU study ID, NHS number or date of birth sent by the study coordinator. The CRN research nurses will add the personal information and address to the study pack and send the study pack to the parents of all the eligible infants.

The parent information sheet will explain the study to the parents. Parents will be able to obtain additional information about the study before consenting by contacting the study team through email or dedicated mobile number via text or call to directly communicate with the study team or leave a voice mail for the study team to return the call or will be able to write to the study team. Parents will be able to complete the consent form and the study entry questionnaire online using a computer or phone or return a completed paper form using the stamped addressed envelope. The consent form will ask for the email address, mobile number and home address in order to send the development questionnaire to the participants. The consent form will ask parents to consent to this study, and will also ask parents’ permission to store their contact details to enable us to contact them in the future for later follow-up studies and for obtaining information on their child’s educational attainment and health care usage information through linking of their child’s personal information with the Department of Education and NHS Digital. Parents will be free to choose which of these activities (none, one or more, all) to consent as appropriate. The study entry questionnaire will ask for demographic characteristics, need for translation services, their preferred mode for completing the developmental screening questionnaires at 18 months (online or over phone or paper version), any medical problems that might impact their child’s development and details of the Coronavirus infection.

Key study research team will comprise of a study researcher at Bristol and a study coordinator at NPEU, Oxford. Every week, the study researcher at Bristol will inform the study coordinator based at NPEU, Oxford, the SINEPSOT IDs of the participants who have consented to participate in the study. For the participants who have not returned the consent forms within three weeks, the study coordinator will liaise with the local PI /CRN research nurses. The study coordinator will send another study pack and a reminder letter to resend to the potential participants of the antenatal and neonatal exposure cohort.

Once parents consent for their child to participate in the study, the study researcher at Bristol will enroll the parents’ email address and mobile number onto the REDCap, which is a secure web-based application. The developmental screening questionnaires can be completed online or over phone or on a paper version that can be returned using the stamped addressed envelope. When the children are 17 months of age, REDCap will send the weblink for the developmental screening questionnaires through email or as a text message. If the parents do not complete the questionnaires in 2 weeks, REDCap will send an automatic reminder to the parents. The study researcher will complete the questionnaires over phone for those parents who had chosen this option. For the parents who need translation, the study researcher will use the Language Line service when the parents are called over phone to complete the questionnaire. If the questionnaires are not completed after 2 weeks following the reminder, the study researcher will contact the parents via telephone. Depending on parents’ preference, the questionnaire could either be completed over phone or online at this juncture.

The researchers will use the Ages and Stages Questionnaire-version 3 (ASQ-3) and Ages and Stages Questionnaire Social-Emotional-version 2 (ASQ-SE-2) to capture the development of children in communication, gross motor, fine motor, problem solving, personal social and social-emotional skills. These questionnaires are widely used in clinical settings and research to check the development of children of this age. These questionnaires can be completed by parents. The researchers will score the questionnaires. The scores will identify whether the child’s development is within the average range for his/her age or whether they are at-risk for developmental delay. The researchers will send the results of the questionnaire to the parents. For those children whose score indicates that they may be at-risk of developmental delay, the researchers will suggest parents contact their child’s health visitor or their general practitioner for further support and assessment.

Sample size
The researchers estimated the sample size based on the following factors:
1. The anticipated deficit in developmental test score associated with exposure to the Coronavirus or Coronavirus associated inflammation is likely to be similar to that seen in infants who were exposed to mild birth asphyxia.
2. Based on previous studies, the anticipated response rate for the invitation to participate in the SINEPOST study using the UKOSS platform is likely to be 20%. However, given the high profile of this research topic and the willingness of the healthcare providers and the public to contribute to research about the Coronavirus, the response rates may be higher.
3. The researchers will need to increase our target sample size to robustly determine the longer-term impact of exposure to the Coronavirus on development at school-age to account for attrition to follow up after 18 months of age.

Considering all these factors, the researchers have estimated that they will need 200 children in the antenatal exposure and the comparator cohort. Given the neonatal exposure cohort currently has 100 eligible children, which is likely to increase with the second wave, the researchers will invite all the eligible children to participate in the SINEPOST study aiming to recruit up to 120 children. To achieve this sample size, they will invite around 1000 women in the antenatal exposure and the comparator cohort. The researchers will assess the recruitment rate 4-6 months into the study. If they are not achieving the expected recruitment, they will increase the number of women who are invited for the study. For example, to increase the recruitment for the comparator cohort, the researchers will invite four women for every index child in the antenatal exposure cohort (two on either side of birth of the index infant).

Timetable
The researchers will commence the study in May 2021 after obtaining ethics and HRA approval and recruiting the study personnel. The study set up including setting the data collection will complete by April 2021. Recruitment will commence from May 2021 and finish by April 2022. The developmental assessment using parental ASQ questionnaires at 18 months of age will last between August 2021 and July 2022. The researchers will undertake the data analysis, report writing and dissemination from July 2022 to October 2022. The study management committee will meet weekly during the initial stages of the study and will then meet monthly in the later stages to conduct the study.
