About this study

Official title: An Optimizing of the Resuscitative Patterns by Use of Balanced Crystalloids and Colloids and the Non-Invasive Hemodynamic Monitoring

Fluid Therapy Lithium Dilution Cardiac Output (LIDCO) controlled trial in BURNS (FACT in BURNS) is a prospective randomized multicentric study.

Introduction: The goal of this trial is the verification, optional upgrading and optimizing of the resuscitative patterns in light of the new generation of balanced crystalloids and colloids and, by utilization the non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring LIDCO.

Read the detailed description

Methods: The extensively burnt patients (age range 18-75 years) with second and the third degree burns, with TBSA above 15%, with or without inhalation injury will be included to the study within 2009-2010. The patients meeting inclusion criteria but with an adverse critical prognosis from the beginning of the hospitalization, with surgically insoluble extent of burns or the dialyzed patients will be excluded.The patients will be routinely monitored. We will use the continuous real-time hemodynamic monitoring through transpulmonal lithium dilution additionally. The monitor Lithium Dilution Cardiac Output (LIDCO) Plus permits through analysis of the arterial blood pressure trace to acquire items about CO, SVR and DO2 . In fluid resuscitation, we will use a combination of the balanced crystalloids and synthetic colloids (of the middle molecular weight) in the ratio 2 ml/kg/% TBSA : 1 ml/kg/% TBSA. The control group will be composed of the patients supervised in a standard way, volume resuscitated according to the Brooke or Parkland formulas. MAP > 65 torr, urine output 0,5 ml/kg/h, CI 2,5 - 4,0 l/min/m2, DO2I 500 - 600 ml/min/m2 are the goals.We will measure the levels of proANP (pro Natriuretic peptide) and Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) at artificial ventilated patients. The plasma ACE and proANP concentrations were measured by commercially available ELISA immunoassays.

Conclusions: We will evaluate the total fluid balance at day 1, 2 and cumulative fluid balance at day 7, reversal of organ dysfunction according to SOFA score at day 3 and 7 in both group. The days of invasive ventilatory support, length of ICU stay, ICU survival, total length of hospital stay and hospital survival are the additional endpoints.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing LIDCO Lithium Dilution Cardiac Output in people with Burns and Shock, run by Faculty Hospital Kralovske Vinohrady at 1 site in Czechia.

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 3 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 5 Jun 2009. 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 Czechia. 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 phase mean?

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?

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?

The total fluid balance at day 1, 2 and cumulative fluid balance at day 7, reversal of organ dysfunction according to SOFA score at day 3 and 7 in both groups. (time frame: 2009-2010). 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 NCT00914563, which also lists 9 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 Jun 2009.
