About this study

The purpose of this study is to identify within a cohort of ICU patients admitted for severe illness those who are at risk of death in the year following the discharge from ICU.

Read the detailed description

FROG-ICU is an epidemiological, observational, prospective, multi centric, cohort study designed for description, prognostic and evaluation. This trial includes as a first step a complete registry of patients admitted to the ICU and as a second step, the outcome of the patients at 1 year after they have been discharged alive from ICU.

Plasma and urine samples will be with drawn biomarkers measurements at admission and ICU discharge. It is a multicentric study involving 1 center in Belgium et 24 centers in France.

What is being measured

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

  1. All cause mortality at one year after ICU discharge

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. To assess quality of life in the year following a stay in ICU

    Measured: one year

  2. To identify key determinants of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in the year following a stay in ICU

    Measured: one year

  3. To investigate the performance of plasma biomarkers usually measured in ICU, to assess the risk of death during the stay in ICU and one year after the discharge.

    Measured: one year

  4. To set up a biological collection of plasma and urine, in order to measure new plasma biomarkers in the assessment of prognosis in the year following a stay in ICU.

    Measured: one year

  5. to evaluate social conditions

    Measured: one year

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?

All cause mortality at one year after ICU discharge (time frame: one year). 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 NCT01367093, which also lists 17 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.
