About this study

Oxygen concentration for patients undergoing cardiac catheterization and during admission to an intensive care unit is important outcome measure for clinical care. Currently, the tool used to monitor the oxygen concentration is a central venous access positioned in the superior vena cava or in the pulmonary artery to monitor the central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2). However, it is invasive and not always possible due to a lack of a central line access. In this research study, the investigator would like use a noninvasive means for the ScvO2 by using the thenar tissue oxygen concentration (StO2). The primary aim for the study is to determine if the thenar StO2 correlates with ScvO2 and can serve as a noninvasive surrogate for ScvO2.

Read the detailed description

Participants will be undergoing a cardiac catheterization at Shands Children's Hospital or will be admitted to the intensive care unit, and as part of the clinical care either a central venous access positioned in the superior vena cava or in the pulmonary artery. As a part of the routine clinical care blood gases are frequently taken for continuous evaluation of therapy to monitor the central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2). A measurement of thenar tissue oxygen concentration will be timed with a central venous blood gas draw to monitor the tissue oxygen concentration (StO2).

The StO2 measurement will be taken by using the InSpectraTM StO2 monitor manufactured by Hutchinson Technology Inc. after applying the noninvasive clip on probe to the thenar eminence of the right hand to measure the StO2 level. After a stable reading is obtained for 60 seconds it will be recorded.

The two different measurements of oxygen concentration will be compared to determine if a correlation exists.

StO2 measurement, Blood Gases

What participants receive

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

  • StO2 measurementDevice

    Also called InSpectraTM StO2 monitor

    All participants will have a measurement of the tissue oxygen concentration (StO2) level after applying the noninvasive probe to the thenar eminence. This measurement is done at the same time as a blood gas from the central venous catheter is obtained. The StO2 measurement is documented once for the subject in the study.

  • Blood GasesOther

    Also called central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2)

    All participants will have a measurement of the tissue oxygen concentration (StO2) level after applying the noninvasive probe to the thenar eminence. This measurement is done at the same time as a blood gas from the central venous catheter is obtained. The StO2 measurement is documented once for the subject in the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measurement of tissue oxygen concentration (StO2) percentage

    The use of the InSpectraTM StO2 monitor manufactured by Hutchinson Technology INC. will be used to measure the StO2 level after applying the noninvasive probe to the thenar eminence.

    Measured: Day 1

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Comparison of thenar StO2 oxygen saturation calculations between central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) calculations.

    The correlation between StO2 and ScvO2 will be determined by using Pearson's correlation test.

    Measured: Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Oxygen Concentration Levels, run by University of Florida 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 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 22 Aug 2018. 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 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?

Measurement of tissue oxygen concentration (StO2) percentage (time frame: Day 1). 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 NCT02476630, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 22 Aug 2018.
