About this study

Official title: A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety of the GlySure Continuous Intra-vascular Glucose Monitoring System, and Its Performance in Comparison to Intermittent Blood Glucose Monitoring in Adult Intensive Care Unit Patients

It has been shown that close control of blood glucose levels in the intensive care unit patient has benefits for patient morbidity and mortality rates as well as an impact upon discharge times. GlySure has previously completed an evaluation of its intra-vascular glucose monitoring system in patients in a surgical ICU environment after cardiac surgery. This study seeks to evaluate the same equipment being used in a wider range of patients with a range of underlying conditions who require treatment in medical ICU's. The GlySure device consists of a sensor that is placed into the patient's blood through a central venous catheter. It measures blood glucose levels continuously which allows for more rapid control of blood glucose levels to be achieved as compared to existing methods where blood samples are taken repeatedly every 15 minutes or so.

The study is designed to show that the sensor can be used for a protracted period of time, giving accurate results when compared to a reference technique using the i-STAT device. The investigators intend to show that the device performs safely for the required time within the ICU.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Glucose MonitoringOtherEach patient will undergo simultaneous Glucose monitoring with 2 devices. One is GlySure's intervascular continuous measurement sensor (test device) introduced through a CVC, and the other measures glucose intermittently from repeated venous blood samples drawn through an indwelling ventflon style catheter
Receives: Device: GlySure Intravascular Continuous glucose monitoring sensor

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety in Use

    No Serious Adverse Events causally related to the device

    Measured: During ICU Stay, normally less than 7 days

  2. MARD Score

    Average aggregate MARD to be below 10%, 95% of subjects to have a MARD of less than 25%

    Measured: During ICU stay, normally less than 7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing GlySure Intravascular Continuous glucose monitoring sensor in people with Blood Glucose Monitoring in Medical ICU, run by GlySure.

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 4 inclusion and 10 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 20 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety in Use (time frame: During ICU Stay, normally less than 7 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 20 May 2014.
