Trial summary

Thermodilution cardiac output measurement is a reliable method, but it is an invasive one. PiCCO device requires cannulation of central vein and peripheral artery. Impedance method requires only attachment of special electrodes. Non-invasive methods are less accurate. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Assessment of Reliability of Cardiac Output Measurement Based on Impedance (NICCOMO) - Method of Noninvasive Cardiac Output Measurement, Compared to Transthoracic Thermodilution (PiCCO) at Different PEEP Levels

Thermodilution cardiac output measurement is a reliable method, but it is an invasive one. PiCCO device requires cannulation of central vein and peripheral artery. Impedance method requires only attachment of special electrodes. Non-invasive methods are less accurate. Aim of study is to assess accuracy and reliability of impedance method ( using NICCOMO device) in comparison of thermodilution method ( using PiCCO device) at different PEEP levels.

Read the detailed description

Echocardiography is performed prior to measurement to exclude patients with heart valve abnormalities.

Patients without spontaneous ventilation ( deeply unconscious, sedated or sedated and paralysed), ventilated with controlled mechanical ventilation mode with tidal volume 6-8 ml/ideal body weight, resulting in EtCO2 35-45 mmHg, with PiCCO catheters implemented have additionally NICCOMO device attached. Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) is set to achieve saturation >96% at positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) 0 cmH2O.

Measurement of cardiac output are performed on expiration at PEEP 0, 5, 10, 15 20 cmH2O and at optimal PEEP (obtained from P-V curve). Simultaneously CO value from impedance device is noted. Other haemodynamic parameters, calculated by both devices are also noted - stroke volume (SV), stroke volume variation (SVV), Cardiac index (CI), systemic vascular resistance (SVR), systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI).

What is being measured

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

  1. Numbers of measurements of haemodynamic parameters (CO, CI, SV, SVV, CI, SVR, SVRI) obtained with impedance, that differ from those obtained with thermodilution

    measurements taken with impedance and thermodilution simultaneously, at PEEP 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and at optimal PEEP

    Measured: up to 90 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiovascular Diagnostic Techniques, run by Medical University of Gdansk at 1 site in Poland.

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 15 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 13 Apr 2020. 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 Poland. 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?

Contact Magdalena A Wujtewicz (+48583493357, magwuj@gumed.edu.pl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Numbers of measurements of haemodynamic parameters (CO, CI, SV, SVV, CI, SVR, SVRI) obtained with impedance, that differ from those obtained with thermodilution (time frame: up to 90 minutes). 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 13 Apr 2020.
