  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Cardiovascular surgical patients at Baylor University Medical Center

Who may be able to join

  • ASA Class 1, 2, 3, or 4 men and women who are having cardiac surgery by one of the participating surgeons

Who cannot join

  • Subject has participated in a trial with any experimental drug or device trial within 30 days prior to enrollment in the study, or has ever been enrolled in this study;
  • Subject has a condition that would require an extensive amount of time off of 13 Roberts during the first 24 hours of admission to the telemetry unit. (e.g., hemodialysis);
  • Subject has a condition or allergy which would prohibit placing the probe on the earlobes;
  • Subject is unable to undergo any procedure required by the protocol;
  • Subject has any other condition or factor which, in the Investigator's opinion, might increase the risk to the subject; or
  • If female, subject is non-lactating, and is either:
  • Not of childbearing potential, defined as postmenopausal for at least 1 year or surgically sterile due to bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, or hysterectomy; or
  • Of childbearing potential but is not pregnant as confirmed by negative serum pregnancy test at time of screening.

About this study

Official title: Pilot Study: Transcutaneous Carbon Dioxide Monitoring Post Cardiac Surgery: Incidence and Severity of Respiratory Insufficiency

The purpose for the investigators study is to investigate the severity and incidence of respiratory insufficiency using transcutaneous carbon dioxide (TcPCO2) monitoring as an adjunct to the current standard of care for early detection of inadequate ventilation in post-operative surgical in-patients undergoing cardiac surgery after discharge from intensive care unit (ICU) or post anesthesia recovery unit (PACU).

Read the detailed description

This observational study is to determine the baseline carbon dioxide and severity of respiratory distress and acute respiratory failure (ARF)/respiratory arrest in the post cardiac surgery patients in the first 24 hours on a monitored telemetry floor.

Being tested
TOSCA 500 monitor

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Respiratory Insufficiency, run by Baylor Research Institute 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 1 inclusion and 8 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 13 Jan 2016. 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?

Determine the baseline TcPCO2 levels for first 24 hours post ICU of cardiac surgery patients. (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 13 Jan 2016.
