Trial summary

Background: Central venous pressure (CVP) monitoring from the peripherally inserted central venous catheter (PICC) has not often been used because of the higher inherent resistance of the PICC due to its longer length and narrower lumen. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Central Venous Pressures Measured From the Peripherally Inserted Antecubital Central Catheters and the Internal Jugular Vein Central Catheters in Liver Transplantation Recipients

Background: Central venous pressure (CVP) monitoring from the peripherally inserted central venous catheter (PICC) has not often been used because of the higher inherent resistance of the PICC due to its longer length and narrower lumen. The objective of this study was to assess the reliability of the CVP measured from PICCs as a predictor of the CVP measured from CICCs in the setting of rapidly fluctuating hemodynamic conditions during liver transplantation.

Read the detailed description

According to the protocol of LT in our hospital, a PICC is concomitantly inserted with the pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) and 9-Fr advanced venous access (AVA) catheter for the LT recipient at anesthetic induction. PAC and AVA catheter are usually removed on the second postoperative day, and instead the PICC is used for the postoperative infusion of prostaglandin E1 which is very irritable to small peripheral vein. So we fortunately had chance to measure the CVPs from both CICC and PICC simultaneously in the same patients.

Methods: We measured the CVPs from the CICC and the PICC simultaneously during each main surgical period of adult liver transplantation (preanhepatic, anhepatic, reperfusion, and neo-hepatic period). Data are presented as means ± standard deviation. Statistical analysis was performed using simple linear regression analysis to observe whether changes in the PICCP were paralleled by simultaneous changes in the CICCP. Bland-Altman analysis was used to determine the degree of agreement between the two devices. Analysis of variance was performed to study whether there were changes in the CVP agreement profiles in regard to the different time periods of LT. Differences were regarded as being statistically significant when p values were less than 0.05.

(This observational study has been completed already.)

What is being measured

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

  1. PICCP: CVP measured from peripherally inserted antecubital central catheters in liver transplantation recipients

    Measured: every 10 minutes during the liver transplantation

  2. CICCP: CVP from IJV central catheters in liver transplantation recipients

    Measured: every 10 minutes during the liver transplantation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Patients Cannulated With Both PICC and CICC. and The Rapidly Fluctuating Hemodynamics During LT., run by National Cancer Center, Korea at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 Oct 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 South Korea. 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?

PICCP: CVP measured from peripherally inserted antecubital central catheters in liver transplantation recipients (time frame: every 10 minutes during the liver transplantation). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00988871, which also lists 2 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 2 Oct 2009.
