About this study

Official title: Phase III Study to Assess the Utility of a New Innovative Technique Using Intravenous Bicarbonate to Verify the Correct Position of Patients Scheduled for Intravenous Bicarbonate

The investigators use bicarbonate injected to an intravenous line and the changes in the exhaled end-tidal carbon dioxide to verify whether the IV line is in the vein or surrounding tissue

Read the detailed description

The method was proved useful in previous phase I, II studies. Now the investigators move on to assess the method in a phase III study in oncological patients.

each patients which will be subjected to intravenous chemotherapy will be eligible ( see also inclusion/exclusion criteria).

Once consent obtained the patient will have an IV line placed. each line placed will be categorized by the clinical team into 3 categories:

  1. IV in place ready to use for chemotherapy ( good blood return)
  2. Doubtful position ( no blood return/ little blood return bu flushes well).
  3. IV not in place. Study design Category 1. IV bicarbonate 4.2% 20 cc and NS 20 cc in a randomized fashion Category 2. same as above Category 3. No injections
Being tested
sodium bicarbonate 4.2%

What is being measured

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

  1. change in exhaled end tidal co2

    the injection of bicarbonate in a vein cause a rapid and distinct change in exhaled end-tidal CO2

    Measured: 1-3 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing sodium bicarbonate 4.2% in people with Detection of the Correct Position of Intravenous Line, run by Sheba Medical Center at 2 sites in Israel.

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 1 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 3 Jan 2013. 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 Israel. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 ilan keidan, MD (97235302754, ilan.keidan@sheba.health.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

change in exhaled end tidal co2 (time frame: 1-3 minutes). 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 3 Jan 2013.
