Trial summary

The broad objective of this study is to test the association between hyperoxia exposure after resuscitation from cardiac arrest and outcome. Our overarching hypothesis is that hyperoxia after ROSC is associated with increased oxidative stress and worsened neurological and cognitive outcomes. Read more about this study

About this study

The broad objective of this study is to test the association between hyperoxia exposure after resuscitation from cardiac arrest and outcome. Our overarching hypothesis is that hyperoxia after ROSC is associated with increased oxidative stress and worsened neurological and cognitive outcomes.

Read the detailed description

Specific Aim 1: Test if the degree and duration of hyperoxia following ROSC from cardiac arrest is associated with the degree of in vivo oxidative stress during the post-resuscitation phase of therapy.

Approach: We will conduct a multicenter prospective observational study of adult patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest. We will record data pertaining to oxygenation parameters and other factors and measure biomarkers of oxidative stress (isoprostanes and isofurans) in the plasma at 0 and 6 hours after ROSC using gas chromatography negative ion chemical ionization mass spectrometry. We will determine the exposure to post-ROSC hyperoxia by calculating the time-weighted average PaO2 and SaO2 for the post-resuscitation phase of therapy, and will test the association with plasma isoprostane and isofuran levels.

Specific Aim 2: Test if the degree and duration of hyperoxia following ROSC from cardiac arrest is associated with the degree of neurological disability at hospital discharge.

Approach: In the study described above, we will determine the Modified Rankin Scale at hospital discharge. We will perform multivariable analyses adjusted for numerous covariates known to be associated with outcome in post-cardiac arrest patients to determine if post-ROSC hyperoxia exposure is independently associated with neurological disability.

Specific Aim 3: Test if the degree and duration of hyperoxia following ROSC from cardiac arrest is associated with neuropsychological outcomes among survivors at 180 days.

Approach: In the study described above, we will assess neuropsychological outcome among survivors at 180 days. Neuropsychological testing will use validated instruments across five cognitive domains (attention, Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-IV-digit span; (2) reasoning, Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-IV-similarities; (3) immediate and delayed memory, Wechsler Memory Scale-III-logical memory I and II; (4) verbal fluency, Controlled Oral Word Association Test; and (5) executive functioning, Hayling Sentence Completion Test). We will perform multivariable analyses to determine if post-ROSC hyperoxia exposure is independently associated with neuropsychological deficits.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Arrest, run by The Cooper Health System at 5 sites 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 6 inclusion and 5 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 25 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites 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?

Plasma isoprostanes/isofurans (mechanistic outcome) (time frame: 0 and 6 hours post-ROSC). 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 25 Nov 2019.
