Trial summary

Hypoxemia is usually observed during ICU stay. Nevertheless, the prevalence of hypoxemia among patients admitted in ICU is not well known, in partly due to a lack of a consensual definition. Read more about this study

About this study

Hypoxemia is usually observed during ICU stay. Nevertheless, the prevalence of hypoxemia among patients admitted in ICU is not well known, in partly due to a lack of a consensual definition. Some of these patients meet the criteria of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome whom the definition has been recently modified in 2011. Many uncertainties are remaining in considering the patients with ARDS: prevalence of the category of "mild ARDS", the proportion of patients with invasive mechanical ventilation, the therapeutic modalities and the prognosis, in particular, the move towards a more severe ARDS category. Finally, many patients with hypoxemia do not meet ARDS definition. The prevalence of this population in ICU is unknown, likewise its prognosis. In this way, it would be interesting to compare, for each levels of hypoxemia (mild, moderate and severe) the prognosis of the patients with and without ARDS.

The main objective of the SPECTRUM study is to assess the prevalence of hypoxemia in French-speaking Intensive Care Unit in 2016 in using a single-day point-prevalence study design. Two periods of inclusion have been, actually, planned: from the 29th Mars to the 31st Mars and from the 5th to the 7th April. In each participating center, the day of the study will be chosen among these periods.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of hypoxemia defined by a ratio of the Partial Pressure of Oxygen in Arterial Blood (PaO2) / Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) below 300 mm Hg

    prevalence of hypoxemia among patients hospitalized in ICU the day of the study

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Prevalence of severe hypoxemia defined by a ratio PaO2/ FiO2 below 100 mm Hg

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Prevalence of mild hypoxemia defined by a ratio PaO2/FiO2 below 200 mm Hg and above 100 mm Hg

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Prevalence of moderate hypoxemia defined by a ratio PaO2/FiO2 below 300 mm Hg and above 200 mm Hg

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Prevalence of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) according the Berlin definition

    Measured: 1 day

  5. ICU mortality

    Measured: 90 days

  6. Prevalence of the different modalities of oxygen therapy

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Critically Ill Patients Admitted in ICU, run by French Society for Intensive Care at 1 site in France.

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 3 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 5 Sep 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 France. 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?

Prevalence of hypoxemia defined by a ratio of the Partial Pressure of Oxygen in Arterial Blood (PaO2) / Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) below 300 mm Hg (time frame: 1 day). 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 NCT02722031, which also lists 6 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 5 Sep 2018.
