About this study

Official title: Intravenous Immunoglobulin Therapy in ARDS Patients With Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) Therapy

57 patients with Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) requiring Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy were analyzed retrospectively. 28 patients had received immunglobulin M-enriched immunoglobulin therapy (IVIG); 29 patients did not receive IVIG therapy.

These patients were analyzed regarding length of stay in intensive care unit (LOS ICU), length of stay (LOS) in hospital and regarding mortality.

Read the detailed description

57 patients with ARDS requiring ECMO therapy were analyzed retrospectively. 28 patients had received IgM-enriched immunoglobulin therapy (IVIG); 29 patients did not receive IVIG therapy.

Patient characteristics, like Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) and Sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SAPS) Score, preexisting diseases, origin of infection, duration of ECMO therapy were analyzed in these patients.

These patients were further analyzed regarding LOS ICU, LOS in hospital and regarding mortality.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Adult and Septic Shock, run by University Hospital Tuebingen at 1 site in Germany.

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

What are the possible benefits and risks?

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Mortality (time frame: during ICU treatment, up to 28 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02961166, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 24 Apr 2018.
