About this study

Official title: Study of Prognosis Value of Protein S100Beta and Copeptine in Seizure in the Emergency Department

We study the hypothesis that combination of Proteine S100 beta and Copeptin within normal ranges can rule out seizure recurrences and severe outcome, and allow early discharge from the emergency department

Read the detailed description

Prospective study for a 12 month period in Paris (France) and London (UK).

Inclusion criteria :

  • seizure within 24h of attendance to an Emergency department (ED)
  • or seizure in the ED

Exclusion Criterie :

  • pregnancy
  • prisoneer

Primary endpoint :

  • recurrence of seizure, hospitalisation more than 24 hours or death within seven days

Secondary endpoint :

  • Hospital free days at day 7 and day 28
  • Death, ICU admission, or neurosurgical intervention at day 7 and day 28
  • Return visit to the ED or re admission at day 7 and day 28 data collection:
  • demographics
  • past medical history, medication
  • vital signs (Heart rate, temperature, Pulse oxymetry, blood pressure, GCS) on arrival
  • Pathology (White cell count, Sodium, Calcium, Glucose, lactate)
  • Protein S100B and Copeptin
  • Seizure characteristics (Witnessed, simple, partial, complex, provoked, acute symptomatic, idiopathic)
  • Discharge plan, outcomes

Follow up at day 7 and day 28, hospital visit or phone call

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Seizures and S-100b Protein, run by Bistro Study Group at 4 sites in 2 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 2 inclusion and 3 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 27 Mar 2014. 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 France, United Kingdom. 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?

Combined hospital admission, seizure recurrence, or death at day 7 (time frame: 7 days). 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 27 Mar 2014.
