Sponsor's own description
A clinical trial was conducted with human participation in order to assess the safety and efficacy of the medical device "TOR device for non-invasive electromagnetic therapy" when used as an adjunct in combination with standard COVID-19 treatment methods to accelerate the elimination (elimination) of the SARS-COV-2 virus from the nasopharynx in patients diagnosed with COVID-19. Device principle of operation is based on the use of weak electromagnetic radiation, continuously induced by high-voltage pulses on the launcher of a pulsed electromagnetic field electrodes and causing noise in the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The study included 236 patients who met all of the specified criteria: male and female patients aged ≥ 18 years with a coronavirus infection COVID-19 established diagnosis after specific testing, with a course of moderate disease, who do not require mechanical ventilation at the time of enrollment in the study. Infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus had to be confirmed by PCR (nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swab). Informed consent was obtained from all patients. Results were statistically evaluated for 222 patients due to death and exclusion from the clinical study of 14 patients. Patients of the test group were exposed to the "TOR" device for at least 5 (five) consecutive days for at least 4 hours daily in the 15 + 15 mode (15 minutes exposure + 15 minutes break) in combination with standard therapy. Patients in the placebo group were exposed to the switched off "TOR" device in combination with standard therapy. The control group received standard therapy. Standard therapy was prescribed in accordance with the recommended treatment regimens presented in the current version of the Temporary guidelines of the Ministry of Health of Russia "Prevention, diagnosis and treatment of coronavirus infection (COVID-19) No. 9 dated 26.10. 2020)". The study had the periods of screening (day 1, visit 0 - V0), treatment (days 2-6, visits 1-5 - V1-V5), discharge (day 7-14, visit 6 - V6), follow-up (day 26 -30, visit 7 - V7). As a result of the clinical trial, it was established: "The device of non-invasive electromagnetic therapy "TOR" is safe when used as directed; effective as an adjuvant in combination with standard COVID-19 treatments to accelerate the elimination of the SARS-COV-2 virus from the nasopharynx.
