Trial summary

The purpose of this multicenter prospective study is to determine if the decision of transient circulatory support (TCS) in cardiogenic shock is relevant. TCS is a recommended treatment of refractory cardiogenic shock but precise indications are not definitively founded. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Decision Relevance of Transient Circulatory Support for Acute Cardiogenic Shock: Patients' Characteristics and Follow-up

The purpose of this multicenter prospective study is to determine if the decision of transient circulatory support (TCS) in cardiogenic shock is relevant. TCS is a recommended treatment of refractory cardiogenic shock but precise indications are not definitively founded. Some studies described patients with TCS in order to establish mortality predictive scores (ENCOURAGE, SAVE), but no study has assessed the clinical relevance of the TCS decision yet. Therefore, The investigators propose to compare the characteristics and the follow-up of patients in acute cardiogenic shock, once TCS implantation was decided or not by the heart team.

Read the detailed description

This French multicenter prospective observational study is aimed at determining if the decision of transient circulatory support (TCS) in cardiogenic shock is pertinent, i.e. at least as effective as the medical treatment.

All patients with cardiogenic shock for whom indication of TCS was discussed within the multidisciplinary heart team (cardiologist, intensivist and cardiac surgeon) are consecutively included in the study.

Two groups of patients are defined:

  • Patients with cardiogenic shock treated by medical treatement
  • Patients with cardiogenic shock treated by TCS (extracorporeal circulatory life support and/or Impella).

The main objective is to compare mortality between the 2 groups. Secondary objectives are ICU follow-up characteristics and quality of life questionnaire at day 180.

Statistical analysis will include a propensity-matched method to compare the groups to avoid confounding factors. The number of necessary subjects (n=240, 120 in each group) was calculated assuming that TCS has a superiority of 20% in comparison with medical treatment in severe cardiogenic shock, with a study power of 80%, and an alpha risk of 5%.

What is being measured

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

  1. Hospital Mortality

    Mortality rate in the 2 groups at the time of hospital discharge

    Measured: From inclusion day to day 180

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Short term mortality rate

    Mortality rate at day 28

    Measured: From inclusion day to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) discharge or day 28 whichever came first

  2. Acute renal failure

    Incidence of renal replacement therapy

    Measured: From inclusion day to ICU discharge or day 28 whichever came first

  3. Respiratory failure

    Days of mechanical ventilation

    Measured: From inclusion day to ICU discharge or day 28 whichever came first

  4. Thromboembolic events

    Incidence of stroke, peripheral or mesenteric ischemia

    Measured: From inclusion day to ICU discharge or day 28 whichever came first

  5. Bleeding events

    Incidence of red blood cell transfusion

    Measured: From inclusion day to ICU discharge or day 28 whichever came first

  6. ICU stays

    Length of stay in ICU (number of days)

    Measured: From inclusion day to day 180

  7. Hospital stays

    Length of stay in hospital (number of days)

    Measured: From inclusion day to day 180

  8. Quality of life score SF 36

    Quality of life, evaluated by the Short Form Survey scoring (SF36 score) using the RAND 36-Item Health Survey 1.0, which will be sent by mail at day 180 after inclusion.

    The RAND 36-Item Health Survey (Version 1.0) taps eight health concepts: physical functioning, bodily pain, role limitations due to physical health problems, role limitations due to personal or emotional problems, emotional well-being, social functioning, energy/fatigue, and general health perceptions. It also includes a single item that provides an indication of perceived change in health. Each item is scored on a 0 to 100 range so that the lowest and highest possible scores are 0 and 100, respectively.

    Measured: From inclusion day to day 180

  9. Long term mortality rate

    Mortality rate at day 180

    Measured: From inclusion day to day 180

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Cardiogenic Shock, run by University Hospital, Montpellier 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 6 inclusion and 6 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 23 Sep 2021. 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 France. 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?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jacob ELIET, M.D (0467335946, j-eliet@chu-montpellier.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Hospital Mortality (time frame: From inclusion day to day 180). 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 NCT03528291, 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 23 Sep 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
