Trial summary

The purpose of this study was to compare CO measured by two easy to use non-invasive monitors, the esCCO (Nihon Kohden, Tokyo, Japan) to the Volume View (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, USA) and to assess their trending ability in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Read more about this study

About this study

The purpose of this study was to compare CO measured by two easy to use non-invasive monitors, the esCCO (Nihon Kohden, Tokyo, Japan) to the Volume View (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, USA) and to assess their trending ability in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Read the detailed description

Cardiac output (CO) is a major physiological variable that should be monitored closely during cardiac surgery in order to assess and guide therapeutic interventions so as to decrease postoperative morbidity. The purpose of this study was to compare CO measured by two easy to use non-invasive monitors, the esCCO (Nihon Kohden, Tokyo, Japan) to the Volume View (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, USA) and to assess their trending ability in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. After Internal review board approval and written informed consent, 19 patients were included in this study. Before cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), CO was measured simultaneously using both the esCCO and the Volume View device before and after 3 CO-modifying maneuvers [passive leg raise (PLR), end expiratory occlusion test (EEOT) and positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) at 10 cm H2O. Five CO values for esCCO and three for volume view were averaged and compared during a one minute period of time before and after each maneuver. The precision error and its 95% confidence interval (CI) that corresponds to the least significant change (LSC) were calculated within this period of time. The Bland-Altman analysis was used to compare bias, precision and limits of agreement (LOA) of both devices. Trending ability of CO changes was assessed by a modified 4 quadrant plot analysis, within angular limits of agreement considered as acceptable when the mean angle between both delta CO was less than 30°.

What is being measured

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

  1. interchangeability of both devices (esCCO vs VV)

    CO (L/min) was measured using esCCO and VV before and after 3 CO-modifying maneuvers (passive leg raise, PEEP of 10 cmH20, end expiratory occlusion test. Five CO values for esCCO and three for VV were averaged and compared during one minute period of time before and after each maneuver.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Output, Low and Anesthesia, run by Université Libre de Bruxelles at 1 site in Belgium.

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 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. 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?

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?

interchangeability of both devices (esCCO vs VV) (time frame: 6 months). 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 16 Nov 2016.
