About this study

Official title: Organ Protective Effect of Histamine H1 Receptor Antagonist In Patients With Severe Burns: A Clinical Study

This prospective clinical trial aims to investigate the organ protective effects of cetirizine in patients with severe burns.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, randomized, single-blind, parallel-controlled clinical trial. The global objective is to compare the organ protective effects of the sedation and analgesia regimen (midazolam, fentanyl) with the modified sedation and analgesia regimen (midazolam, fentanyl, cetirizine) in patients with severe burns (≥30% TBSA). Participants will receive the intervention from admission to 72 hours post-burn. Researchers will take the APACHE II scores on days 7 after admission as the main outcomes. Researchers will also take other supplementary examination results into account, including liver enzyme, myocardial enzyme, renal function, haemodynamic index, coagulation function, and pulmonary interstitial edema.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CetirizineDrug

    Oral administration of cetirizine at 10mg once daily will be used.

  • Midazolam and FentanylDrug

    Midazolam 50mg + fentanyl 300ug micro pump push will be used with a starting dose of 5ml/hour, adjusted according to the patient's level of sedation. The patient's RASS score will be maintained between -1-0 and the drug will be suspended with a blood pressure below 90/60mmHg.

What is being measured

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

  1. APACHE II on Day 7

    Observation of APACHE II scores of patients in each group 7 days after admission.

    The APACHE II (Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Evaluation II) is a severity-of-disease classification system. An integer score from 0 to 71 is computed based on several measurements. Higher scores correspond to more severe disease and a higher risk of death.

    Measured: Day 7

Secondary outcomes (20)
  1. Urinary Output

    Observation of 24-hour urinary output (ml) 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  2. Blood L-lactate

    Observation of Blood L-lactate level 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  3. Base Excess (BE)

    Observation of base excess in blood 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  4. Oxygen Saturation

    Observation of oxygen saturation in blood 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  5. Stroke Volume Variation

    Observation of stroke volume variation (SVV) in PICCO or Uscom 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  6. Global End-Diastolic Volume

    Observation of global end-diastolic volume (GEDV) in PICCO or Uscom 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  7. Central Venous Pressure

    Observation of central venous pressure (CVP) in PICCO or Uscom 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  8. Stroke Volume

    Observation of stroke volume 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  9. Cardiac Function Index

    Observation of Cardiac Function Index (CFI) 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  10. Pulmonary interstitial edema

    Observation of extravascular lung water index (ELWI) or chest x-ray 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  11. SOFA Score

    Observation of SOFA score 7 days after admission.

    The SOFA score (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment Score) is a scoring system associated with the organ function or rate of function of patients. An integer score from 0 to 24 is computed based on 6 different scores, one each for the respiratory, cardiovascular, hepatic, coagulation, renal, and neurological systems. Each organ system is assigned a point value from 0 (normal) to 4 (high degree of dysfunction/failure). Higher scores correspond to more severe organ function disorders or failures.

    Measured: Day 7

  12. Body Temperature

    Observation of body temperature 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  13. Heart Rate

    Observation of heart rate 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  14. Respiratory Rate

    Observation of respiratory rate 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  15. Leukocyte Count

    Observation of leukocyte count in blood 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  16. Blood CRP

    Observation of blood CRP (C-reactive protein) 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  17. Blood Calcitoninogen

    Observation of blood calcitoninogen 7 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 7

  18. Mechanical Ventilation Duration

    Observation of mechanical ventilation duration during 28 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 28

  19. Mortality

    Observation of mortality during 28 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 28

  20. Sepsis Rate

    Observation of sepsis rate during 28 days after admission.

    Measured: Day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Cetirizine and Midazolam and Fentanyl in people with Burns, run by Ruijin Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 10 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 1 Feb 2024. 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 China. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Yan Liu (021-64370045, rjliuyan@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

APACHE II on Day 7 (time frame: Day 7). 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 NCT06126991, 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 1 Feb 2024.
