About this study

OBJETIVES:

  1. To research the worsening of respiratory status risk factors after transfusion in spanish critical care units.
  2. To determine the incidence of transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) in critically ill patients.
  3. To research the morbi-mortality of TRALI.
Read the detailed description

Actually there are no published European data on the incidence of acute lung injury by transfusion (TRALI) in critically ill patients, in Europe, estimates of TRALI incidence are limited to passive reports of national blood banks. This multicenter study of Spanish ICUs will investigate the incidence and TRALI predisposing factors (associated with the patient, the transfused blood product and the presence or absence of mechanical ventilation).

Design:

Prospective multicenter observational study.

Patients:

All patients transfused in eleven spanish intensive care units (UCI) from October 1, until November 30, 2010. Patients with less of 18 years old, or transfused six hours before be included in this study or seriousness patients with a length of stay <24 hrs will be excluded.

Variables:

  • Patient data collection: Demografic data (age, gender), Clinical data (comorbid conditions), Admission diagnostic , Complications during the stay and severity of illness scores: Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE II) score, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, Euroscore.
  • Transfusion factors: Type of blood product, time of infusion and volumen transfused, storage age and donor sex.
  • Respiratory factors: Main ventilation and oxigenation parameters and type of respiratory support before and after transfusion.

For each transfusion episode was completed two data tables (see last page of the booklet of data collection):

  • Before the transfusion (baseline) are listed the values of the patient's respiratory function, the analytical value that is transfused (Hb, INR, APTT, PT, platelets) and the number of the bag that is transfused (to apply blood bank storage time and sex of the donor).
  • After the transfusion are recorded the volume and time infusion and 6 hours after transfusion are collected again the parameters of the patient's respiratory function and radiographic changes.

According to official criteria shall be noted if the patient has exhibited a classic TRALI, possible TRALI, or a worsening of their respiratory function after transfusion.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Sep 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Spain. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact CARMEN MARIA FERRANDIZ, MD (955012528, carmenmferrandizm@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Worsening of respiratory status (time frame: October-November). 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 NCT01212640, which also lists 15 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 30 Sep 2010.
