Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Potential study participants will be adult (>18 years) trauma patients or patients with OB hemorrhage such that viscoelastic testing is performed as standard of care to assess coagulopathy.

Who may be able to join

  • Subject is ≥ 18 years of age

  • For trauma patients; subject must be experiencing major trauma (preferably requiring the highest level of team activation) with active bleeding or deemed at high risk of significant bleeding according to mechanism of injury.
  • For subjects experiencing OB hemorrhage, one of the following conditions must be met (to be confirmed):
  • Estimated blood loss during vaginal delivery is greater than 1000 mL

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Clinical Performance of the Quantra System With the QStat Cartridge in Trauma and Obstetric Hemorrhage

This pilot study will evaluate the performance of the Quantra System comprised of the Quantra Hemostasis Analyzer with the QStat Cartridge in trauma patients or patients with OB hemorrhage.

Read the detailed description

The Quantra System is a fully integrated and automated in vitro diagnostic device which uses SEER Sonorheometry, an ultrasound-based technology, to characterize the viscoelastic properties of a whole blood sample during coagulation. The QStat Cartridge was developed to monitor hemostasis in patients that may experience a range of coagulopathies of various etiologies including fibrinolytic defects. These patients include the trauma and obstetric hemorrhage populations. The cartridge consists of four independent channels each containing different sets of reagents, which provide four measurements performed in parallel yielding five parameters that depict the functional status of a patient's coagulation system.

This single-center, prospective, observational pilot study will evaluate the performance of the Quantra System with the QStat Cartridge as compared to standard coagulation tests and comparable measures using conventional viscoelastic testing methods.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of Quantra Clot Time and Clot Stiffness results to standard coagulation test results

    Coagulation function assessed by Quantra and standard coagulation tests

    Measured: Upon arrival to emergency department (trauma subjects) or upon presentation with obstetric hemorrhage, prior to the administration of blood products or antifibrinolytics in parallel with samples collected for routine ROTEM analysis and laboratory assays

  2. Comparison of Quantra Clot Time and Clot Stiffness results to ROTEM Delta results

    Coagulation function assessed by Quantra and ROTEM Delta

    Measured: Upon arrival to emergency department (trauma subjects) or upon presentation with OB hemorrhage, prior to the administration of blood products or antifibrinolytics in parallel with samples collected for routine ROTEM analysis and laboratory assays

  3. Comparison of Quantra Fibrinolysis results to ROTEM Delta results

    Coagulation function assessed by Quantra and ROTEM Delta

    Measured: Upon arrival to emergency department (trauma subjects) or upon presentation with OB hemorrhage, prior to the administration of blood products or antifibrinolytics in parallel with samples collected for routine ROTEM analysis and laboratory assays

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Blood Loss Massive and Trauma, run by HemoSonics LLC at 1 site in United States.

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 10 inclusion and 5 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 1 Oct 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 United States. 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?

Comparison of Quantra Clot Time and Clot Stiffness results to standard coagulation test results (time frame: Upon arrival to emergency department (trauma subjects) or upon presentation with obstetric hemorrhage, prior to the administration of blood products or antifibrinolytics in parallel with samples collected for routine ROTEM analysis and laboratory assays). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 1 Oct 2019.
