About this study

Official title: Impact of Early Diagnosis Algorithm for Early-onset Pneumonia Diagnosis on Prognosis of Patients With Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest

Early-onset pneumonia after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is frequent. An association between early-onset pneumonia and an increase in morbidity has been reported in this population. The diagnosis of early-onset pneumonia inpatients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest may be challenging as diagnosis criteria are unspecific in this setting. On the other hand some studies have reported an association between early antibiotics and better prognosis in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest suggesting that early diagnosis and treatment of pneumonia would benefit to patients. Nonetheless, adminitration of antibiotics to any patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest would expose to antibiotic patients without infection and woould participate to increase in antibiotic resistance.

Therefore, the PP-ACR study aims to evaluate the impact of a diagnosis algorithm including blinded sampling protected brushes on early-onset pneumonia treatment and patient prognosis after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest, run by University Hospital, Brest at 1 site in France.

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

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?

Contact Cecile Aubron, MD,PhD (cecile.aubron@chu-brest.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

delay between intensive care admission and antibiotic initiation (time frame: first 5 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03355885, 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.
