Trial summary

Out of hospital cardiac arrest is a major health problem. Prognosis is still poor even after return to spontaneous circulation. The pathophysiology of cardiac arrest implies ischemia-reperfusion and sepsis like syndrome. Read more about this study

About this study

Out of hospital cardiac arrest is a major health problem. Prognosis is still poor even after return to spontaneous circulation. The pathophysiology of cardiac arrest implies ischemia-reperfusion and sepsis like syndrome. These phenomenons can lead to microvascular dysfunction explaining probably multi-organ failure after cardiac arrest. Few means allow the exploration of microvascular function in human. Muscle StO2 is a technique allowing the assessment of microvascular function non-invasively. The aim of this study is to evaluate muscle StO2 as a prognostic factor after out of hospital cardiac arrest.

Read the detailed description

Out of hospital cardiac arrest is a major health problem accounting for 375000 deaths each year in Europe. Even after return to spontaneous circulation, survival is poor because of complications such as post-anoxic encephalopathy and multi-organ failure. The pathophysiology of cardiac arrest implies ischemia-reperfusion and sepsis like syndrome. These conditions are frequently associated with microvascular dysfunction that can be the "motor" of multi-organ failure. Few means allow the exploration of microvascular function in human. Recently, StO2, a non-invasive technique assessing microvascular function has been described. This technique measures the tissular saturation of a muscle using the near-infrared spectroscopy technique. It has been described to be a good prognostic factor during haemorrhagic shock state. Dynamic parameters such as reperfusion slope allow discriminating between survivors and survivors after severe sepsis. This dynamic test assesses the microvasculature recruitment that could be a marker of better prognosis. The aim of this study is to evaluate muscle StO2 as a prognostic factor after out of hospital cardiac arrest.

    Reperfusion slope after vascular occlusion test

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Reperfusion slope after vascular occlusion test. This parameter will be compared between survivors and non-survivors

    Measured: Four measurements : on admission, since the body core temperature reaches 34°, after 24 hours of hypothermia and 48 hours after admission to ICU

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Muscle StO2 during the first 2 days Lactatemia during the first 2 days These parameters will be compared between survivors and non-survivors

    Measured: Muscle StO2 will be monitored continuously during the first 2 days Lactatemia will be measured every 12 hours until normalization

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Vascular occlusion test in people with Cardiac Arrest, run by Department of Clinical Research and Innovation at 2 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Mar 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jean-Christophe ORBAN, MD (+33 4 92 03 33 00, orban.j@chu-nice.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Reperfusion slope after vascular occlusion test. This parameter will be compared between survivors and non-survivors (time frame: Four measurements : on admission, since the body core temperature reaches 34°, after 24 hours of hypothermia and 48 hours after admission to ICU). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Mar 2012.
