About this study

The purpose of this study is to show the success of the AutoLog System in removing lipids to less than 10mg/dl in vivo. The Autolog registry has two objectives:

  1. to determine the lipid removal capabilities of the Medtronic AutoLog System.
  2. to obtain in vivo data on blood component removal and washing capabilities of the Medtronic AutoLog System.
Read the detailed description

Since the in house data strongly suggest that the Medtronic AutoLog is uniquely high performing in lipid removal in-vitro, the Registry AutoLog Lipid Removal and Blood Component Characterization is initiated to determine if the AutoLog system is successful in removing lipids in vivo as it is in-vitro. Therefore, it is expected that the lipid amounts after washing will be less than 10 mg/dl.

The study is designed as a multi-center, non-randomized, non-interventional, post market release study (a registry). The study has a single arm, without controls, as it is descriptive in nature.

What is being measured

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

  1. level of reduction of nonemulsified fat

    The primary endpoint of this study is the level of reduction of nonemulsified fat after processing through the Medtronic AutoLog.

    Measured: after process

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Trauma, run by Medtronic Cardiac Rhythm and Heart Failure at 6 sites in 6 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 1 inclusion and 9 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 29 Oct 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, South Africa and 1 more country. 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?

level of reduction of nonemulsified fat (time frame: after process). 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 29 Oct 2015.
