About this study

Investigators are conducting research about oxygen levels in the body and whether it is possible to use a device to measure oxygen in the body's tissues noninvasively, without blood draws or a catheter (a plastic tube placed in a vein). Investigators would like to know how this device compares to standard measurements using blood from a catheter. This may help treat patients who may not be getting enough oxygen to their body.

Read the detailed description

Investigators will enroll patients in the pediatric intensive care unit who have an indwelling catheter that allows measurement of central venous oxygen saturation. Measurements of central venous oxygen saturation using blood oximetry will be compared with measures of tissue oxygenation at the buccal mucosa using a Raman spectroscopy tissue oximeter. Investigators will also measure the status of the sublingual microcirculation utilizing sidestream dark field microscopy. Basic demographic and clinical variables such as ongoing vasoactive infusions, mechanical ventilation, and laboratory data will also be collected.

What participants receive

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

  • Tissue oxygenation monitoringDevice

    Also called R-StO2 (Raman Tissue Oxygenation)

    The device provides continuous measures with updates based on the previous 10 seconds worth of data. Data is continuously stored.

What is being measured

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

  1. tissue oxygenation level as measured by raman spectroscopy device

    Measurement of tissue oxygenation level as based upon raman spectroscopy device will be compared with standard measures from central venous oxygen saturation from central venous catheters.

    Measured: The measures will occur twice within the first 24 hours of admission to the pediatric ICU and then whenever a central venous oxygen saturation is measured by the clinical care team until the patient is discharged from the pediatric ICU.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Microcirculation as recorded by sublingual video microcirculation recorder.

    Two video clips will be recorded of the sublingual microcirculation in each patient within the first 24 hours of admission to the PICU.

    Measured: Twice in the first 24 hours after PICU admission

  2. Vital signs as recorded by Bioinformatically enabled armband monitor (BEAM)

    Bioinformatically enabled armband monitor (BEAM) will be placed on the patient's upper extremity for the first 24 hours of their admission and will be subsequently removed. The data will be stored in the device and investigators and clinicians caring for subjects will be blinded to the device output as data is collected. The device continually captures physiologic data such as heart rate, ECG results, and temperature.

    Measured: Continuous from PICU admission through 24 hours of admission

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Tissue oxygenation monitoring in people with Sepsis and Shock, run by University of Michigan 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 2 inclusion and 6 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 23 May 2017. 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?

tissue oxygenation level as measured by raman spectroscopy device (time frame: The measures will occur twice within the first 24 hours of admission to the pediatric ICU and then whenever a central venous oxygen saturation is measured by the clinical care team until the patient is discharged from the pediatric ICU.). 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 23 May 2017.
