Official title: Changes in Platelet Function During Continuous Veno-venous Hemodialysis Using the Multiplate Device

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
DialysisPlatelet function will be documented during the first 48 hours of veno-venous hemofiltration using the Multiplate system.

What is being measured

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

  1. ASPItest

    Area under the aggregation curve (AUC) after platelet stimulation with arachidonic acid at baseline and 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the start of the continuous hemofiltration.

    Measured: Baseline, 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. ADPtest

    Area under the aggregation curve (AUC) after platelet stimulation with adenosine diphosphate at baseline and 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the start of the continuous hemofiltration.

    Measured: Baseline, 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours

  2. TRAPtest

    Area under the aggregation curve (AUC) after platelet stimulation with thrombin-receptor-activating peptide 6 (TRAP-6) at baseline and 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the start of the continuous hemofiltration.

    Measured: Baseline, 6, 12, 24, 48 hours

  3. CT-INTEM

    Clotting time (CT) in the intrinsically activated rotational thrombelastometry (ROTEM) recorded in seconds at baseline and 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the start of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration.

    Measured: Baseline, 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours

  4. MCF-INTEM

    Maximum clot firmness (MCF) in the intrinsically activated rotational thrombelastometry (ROTEM) recorded in millimeters at baseline and 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the start of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration.

    Measured: Baseline, 6, 12, 24 and 48hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Platelet Function, run by Goethe University at 1 site in Germany.

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 3 Mar 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 Germany. 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?

ASPItest (time frame: Baseline, 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours). 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 NCT01837758, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 3 Mar 2017.
