About this study

Official title: Prospective, Multicenter, Single-arm Pilot Clinical Investigation Evaluating the Use of a Surface Bleeding Severity Scale (SBSS) and the Safety and Efficacy of a New Hemostatic Device in Abdominal and Orthopedic Lower Extremity Surgeries

The primary objective of this pilot clinical investigation is to assess the reliability of the Surface Bleeding Severity Scale (SBSS) in a clinical setting. Secondary objectives of this clinical investigation are to collect initial data on the safety and efficacy of HEMOBLAST™ Bellows in abdominal and orthopedic lower extremity surgeries.

Read the detailed description

HEMOBLAST™ Bellows is intended for use in surgical procedures as an adjunct to hemostasis when control of bleeding by conventional procedures is ineffective or impractical.

This is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm pilot clinical investigation. There will be 36 subjects enrolled across 4 investigational sites.

The subjects will be followed at hospital charge and 6 weeks postoperatively.

The primary endpoint of this clinical investigation is the mean paired Kappa statistic for the assignment of SBSS scores by 2 Investigators.

Secondary endpoints of this clinical investigation consist of:

  • Proportion of subjects achieving hemostasis within 6 minutes of HEMOBLAST™ Bellows application;
  • Proportion of subjects achieving hemostasis within 10 minutes of HEMOBLAST™ Bellows application;
  • Proportion of subjects achieving hemostasis within 3 minutes of HEMOBLAST™ Bellows application; and
  • Incidence of adverse events through final follow-up.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing HEMOBLAST Bellows in people with Hemostasis, run by Biom'Up France SAS at 3 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 7 inclusion and 19 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 15 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Feb 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Mean Paired Kappa Statistic for the Assignment of SBSS Scores by 2 Investigators (time frame: Intraoperative). 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 15 Feb 2019.
