About this study

Official title: PROGNOSTIC HEMODYNAMIC PROFILING IN THE ACUTELY ILL EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT PATIENT

This multinational registry (3 USA, 2 European centers) will capture in the ED continuous non invasive hemodynamic monitoring (using Nexfin finger cuff technology) of patients presenting with acute heart failure, stroke syndromes and systemic infection. Patients will be observed after their Emergency Department (ED) disposition to determine clinical outcomes (length of stay in the hospital, the development of any organ dysfunction, mortality and need for unscheduled medical care within the ensuing 30 days). It is anticipated that specific ED hemodynamic profiles will be predictive of better clinical outcomes than others. This information will provide the outcome data needed to design future therapeutic trials that will evaluate the effect of ED hemodynamic manipulations on overall patient management and outcomes.

Read the detailed description

The PREMIUM Registry is a multinational, prospective, observational convenience study of the ED hemodynamic profiles of patients presenting with acute CHF, stroke and systemic infections and their potential relationship with patient outcomes. Continuous hemodynamics will be measured by noninvasive means using the Nexfin device and outcomes (in hospital length of stay, the interval development of organ dysfunction and mortality or the need for unscheduled medical care within the ensuing 30 days) will be captured within the registry.

The treating ED physicians will be blinded to the hemodynamic monitoring and there will be no modification of the standard care that each patient receives. Hospital charts will be reviewed and patients/family members will be additionally called at 30 days after the hospital visit in order to collect any additional outcome data.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT01208077
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Acute CHF1. Recurrent or worsening (within 3 days) shortness of breath as the primary presenting ED complaint 2. Initial treating ED physician impression that the worsening dyspnea is most likely caused by decompensated CHF 3. Known history of physician diagnosed CHF 4. Natriuretic peptide (BNP, MR-pro ANP, NT pro BNP) level will be ordered by the treating physician as part of the patient's work up
Acute Stroke Syndrome1. Onset of abnormal neurological symptoms consistent with possible stroke, within the prior 24 hours, as the primary ED complaint 2. Initial treating ED physician impression that the abnormal neurological symptoms/signs are most likely caused by an acute stroke syndrome 3. Non contrast head CT will be ordered by the treating physician as part of the patient's work up
Acute Systemic Infection1. Any combinations of acute (within 3 days) symptoms and signs that the treating ED physician, after initial history and physical examination, attributes to a systemic infection 2. Blood cultures and/or a blood lactate will be ordered by the treating physician as part of the patient's work up

What is being measured

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

  1. Hemodynamic profile (CO, SVR, SV, DP/DT and Indexed values)

    Describe the 4 hour continuous ED hemodynamic profiles (CO, SVR, SV, DP/DT and Indexed values)of patients treated under current clinical standards with acute CHF, stroke syndromes and systemic infection.

    Measured: 4 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Hemodynamic Profiles in acute CHF, stroke, and systemic infection

    Describe the hemodynamic profiles within existing risk stratification groupings currently used for these 3 disease states. These include but are not limited to BNP and troponin values for acute CHF, infarct/bleed size in acute stroke syndromes, and WBC and procalcitonin (where applicable) and blood lactate levels in systemic infections.

    Determine which hemodynamic profiles measured in the ED predict clinical outcomes (mortality, end organ dysfunction, and length of stay)

    Measured: 4 Hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute CHF and Acute Stroke Syndromes, run by Henry Ford Health System at 4 sites in 3 countries.

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 14 inclusion and 13 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 4 Aug 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States, Italy, Netherlands. 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?

Hemodynamic profile (CO, SVR, SV, DP/DT and Indexed values) (time frame: 4 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 4 Aug 2015.
