About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact that the Venus 1000 non-invasive CVP system has on the management of emergency department (ED) patients with fluid sensitive conditions.

Read the detailed description

The ability to non-invasively, accurately, and continuously measure CVP to assess the preload status of ED patients could lead to its inclusion into existing protocols (similar to EGDT), or the development of novel protocols for the treatment of patients with fluid sensitive conditions. The majority of other non-invasive measures of preload, such as ultrasound of the inferior vena cava or the passive leg raise technique are not continuous measures and require some type of effort or skill on the part of the clinician. Continuous methods of assessing preload include CVP measurement through a central venous catheter, esophageal Doppler monitoring, and pulse contour analysis via arterial catheter monitoring, all of which involve invasive procedures.

The Venus CVP device is non-invasive and has continuous monitoring capabilities. The data acquired from this project will allow us to determine whether emergency physicians will, in practice, utilize the information provided by a non-invasive CVP monitoring device to assist in the management of their patients with severe sepsis or acute HF.

What participants receive

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

  • Mespere Venus 1000 Non-Invasive CVP SystemDevice

    The Venus 1000 CVP System is a non-invasive central venous pressure measurement system that utilizes the proven science of NIRS. Approved by FDA, received Health Canada Medical Device Licence and CE Marked, the Venus 1000 has been proven to be clinically equivalent to measurements made via right heart catheterization.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mespere Venus 1000 Non-Invasive CVP System in people with Severe Sepsis and Acute Heart Failure, run by Mespere Lifesciences 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 3 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 2015. 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?

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?

30-day Readmission (time frame: 30 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 28 Sep 2015.
