Impact on quality of life and disease burden in adults with herpes zoster Contents

HYPOTHESIS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY 3.1 Hypothesis: Herpes zoster significantly affects the quality of life of those who suffer from it with a high disease burden.

3.2 Primary outcomes: To measure the quality of life of patients with a history of herpes zoster who attend the immunization unit of the Fundación Jiménez Díaz University Hospital.

3.3 Secondary outcomes

  1. Evaluating the quality of life according to the location of the zoster (postherpetic neuralgia, ophthalmic zoster, etc.)

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Oct 31, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
