About this study

Official title: Observational Study on Monitoring of Systemic or Organ Blood Circulation and Perfusion for Preterm Infants

To investigate biomarker reflects systemic or specific organ perfusion well, we are going to the observational comparison study using several hemodynamic monitoring methods in the premature infants. It includes near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), pulse oximetry with perfusion index (PI) and pleth variability index (PVI) and functional echocardiography.

Read the detailed description

Hemodynamic observational comparisons will be performed in 6 episodes below on each patient.

  1. first 24 hours after birth
  2. during red blood cell (RBC) transfusion: from 4 hours before to 4 hours after the transfusion
  3. suspicion of necrotizing enterocolitis: from the suspicion point for 48 hours
  4. suspicion of sepsis: from the suspicion point for 48 hours
  5. oligouria (< 1 mL/kg/hour of urine): for 48 hours
  6. hypotension (mean blood pressure < 30 mmHg): for 48 hours
Being tested
NIRS (near Infra-red spectroscopy)
Medical subject headings
Premature Birth, Neonatal Sepsis, Oliguria, Hypotension

What is being measured

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

  1. Positive predictive value of each index on hypotension

    Positive predictive value of each index which are recorded through the monitoring machines

    Measured: first 24 hours after birth

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Infant, Premature and Hypoperfusion in Newborn, run by Inha University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Feb 2019. 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 South Korea. 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?

Positive predictive value of each index on hypotension (time frame: first 24 hours after birth). 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 27 Feb 2019.
