Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the hemoglobin results obtained with 1) the HemoCue™, 2) the Masimo SpHb™, and 3) the UCSF Clinical Laboratory. The goal is to determine if these three values differ from each other during various levels of blood loss in the clinical care of patients for spine revision and hip… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of Three Methods of Hemoglobin Monitoring in Patients Undergoing Spine Revision or Hip Revision Surgery.

The purpose of this study is to compare the hemoglobin results obtained with 1) the HemoCue™, 2) the Masimo SpHb™, and 3) the UCSF Clinical Laboratory. The goal is to determine if these three values differ from each other during various levels of blood loss in the clinical care of patients for spine revision and hip revision surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. See description below

    Primary outcome is based on the difference between SpHb (Masimo SpHb™ continuous hemoglobin reading ) - tHb (laboratory hemoglobin determination).

    Measured: A minimum of three differences recorded during surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. See description below

    Secondary outcome is based on the difference between a HemoCue™ derived hemoglobin determination - laboratory hemoglobin determination.

    Measured: A minimum of three differences recorded during surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Blood Loss, run by University of California, San Francisco 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 3 inclusion and 2 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 7 Mar 2013. 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?

See description below (time frame: A minimum of three differences recorded during surgery). 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 NCT00792597, 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 7 Mar 2013.
