Clinical Trial: Evaluation of Knowledge on Tick-borne Encephalitis Virus (TBEV) Infection Among General Practitioners in France

U.S., Sept. 25 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07191223) titled 'Evaluation of Knowledge on Tick-borne Encephalitis Virus (TBEV) Infection Among General Practitioners in France' on March 25.

Brief Summary: Tick-borne encephalitis is a relatively rare disease (approximately 35 cases diagnosed per year), but most cases (86%) are due to contamination in France via a tick bite. Of the 71 cases reported over two years (May 2021 to May 2023), 94% of patients were hospitalized.

It is therefore important to consider and diagnose at the first signs to ensure appropriate follow-up and also to implement primary prevention in endemic/at-risk areas.
