About this study

Official title: Usefulness of Pro-adrenomedullin (MR proADM)as a Predictor of Outcome in Acute Exacerbations of COPD Visiting the Emergency Room

The purpose of this study is to determine whether pro-adrenomedullin (Mr proADM)in addition to clinical evaluation is effective to predict outcome of acute exacerbations of COPD patients visiting the emergency room(ER).

Read the detailed description

Acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD)are usual and frequent cause of admission in emergency room (ER). No validated clinical or biological predictor of evolution are available.

The main objective is to determine the prognosis value of Mr proADM in addition to the clinical risk stratification for AE COPD patients in ER.

Patients presenting with a AECOPD diagnosis in ER will have a blood sample collected and freezed at their admission. Mr proADM will be assessed at the end of the study. Clinicians in charge of patients will not have the result during the management of their patients. This study implies no change in the patients' management.

Data related to the patients'demographic,current exacerbation and basic COPD characteristics will be collected.

What is being measured

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

  1. composite outcome measure

    Death, subsequently transfer to ICU, relapse, need to be ventilated after 24 hours of their admission in ER

    Measured: at Day 30

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. composite outcome

    Death, subsequently transfer to ICU, relapse, need to be ventilated after 24 hours of their admission in ER

    Measured: at Day 7 of ER admission

  2. correlation between Mr proADM and patients Severity

    Correlation between MR proADM and patient's severity

    Measured: at Day 7 and Day 30 of ED admission
