What is being measured

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

  1. 180-day survival

    180-day survival from ECMO implantation

    Measured: From day of ECMO-implant for every 24 hours until date of death or survival at 180 days

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Days on ECMO

    Days on ECMO from ECMO implantation

    Measured: From day of ECMO-implant for every 24 hours until date of weaning or death

  2. Weaning from ECMO

    Weaning from ECMO

    Measured: From day of ECMO-implant until date of death or weaning

  3. ICU length of stay

    ICU length of stay from ECMO implantation

    Measured: From day of ICU-admission for every 24 hours until date of death or date of ICU discharge

  4. ICU survival

    ICU survival from ECMO implantation

    Measured: From day of ICU-admission for every 24 hours until date of death or survival at ICU discharge

  5. Hospital survival

    Hospital survival from ECMO implantation

    Measured: From day of hospital admission for every 24 hours until date of death or survival at hospital discharge

  6. 30-day survival

    30-day survival from ECMO implantation

    Measured: From day of ECMO-implant for every 24 hours until date of death or survival at 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of ARDS and COVID-19, run by University Medical Centre Ljubljana.

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 2 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 5 May 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

180-day survival (time frame: From day of ECMO-implant for every 24 hours until date of death or survival at 180 days). 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 NCT05353725, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 5 May 2022.
