About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open Label Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness of the MMT Initial Specimen Diversion Device in Reducing Blood Culture Contamination Compared to Laboratory Standard Procedures When Collected Through Peripheral Intravenous Catheters (PIVC)

This is a randomized, open label study to evaluate the Initial Specimen Diversion Device (ISDD) in reducing the contamination rate in blood culture analysis. Blood culture data will be derived from inpatient and/or outpatient settings in a variety of hospital departments (e.g. ER, surgical, medical, etc.). Only samples that are collected via PIVC's may be included in this study. The ISDD will be compared to current laboratory practices for the collection of blood for culture purposes. Laboratory Standard Procedures (LSP) is defined as collection of venipuncture blood for culture without an initial diversion method to divert and sequester potential blood contaminants.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate the rate of blood culture contamination using the Initial Specimen Diversion Device (ISDD) compared to Laboratory Standard Procedures (LSP) when collected through PIVC

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluate the occurrence of any adverse device effects

    As the device under study enhances the blood diversion procedure during blood culture collection, and is part of standard blood collection standards, adverse device effects are not expected as a result of use of this device. Any issues with the function of the device will be reported by the phlebotomist on a device incident form. The sponsor will maintain these reports in a database. As this is a commercially available device, medical device reporting shall be performed in accordance with 21 CFR 803, as applicable.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Initial Specimen Diversion Device (ISDD), Lab standard practice (LSP) and Peripheral Intravenous Catheters (PIVC) in people with Septicemia, run by Magnolia Medical Technologies, Inc. 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 1 inclusion and 1 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Aug 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 was stopped early (reason given: Lack of enrollment). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Evaluate the rate of blood culture contamination using the Initial Specimen Diversion Device (ISDD) compared to Laboratory Standard Procedures (LSP) when collected through PIVC (time frame: Baseline). 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 11 Aug 2017.
