About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Safety and Performance of the BIP Central Venous Catheter With Anti-infective Coating

The primary objective of this trial was to determine Bactiguard coated BIP CVC's safety and performance and compare it to corresponding standard uncoated CVC.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety for the medical device of 'BIP central venous catheter". Safety is assessed by evaluation of adverse events (according to ISO 14155:2011). Examples of CVC related common events are phlebitis, infection at the infection site, catheter related bacteremia/fungemia, septicemia, sepsis, thrombosis, lung emboli and pneumothorax.

The secondary objective is to assess the overall performance by evaluating if there were any CVC handling problems experienced by the physician/health care personnel.

Furthermore, an exploratory objective of this study is to assess coating and microbial colonization.

Included in the study were men and women aged 18 years or older undergoing elective standardized large surgery with a planned CVC catheterization in right or left jugular vein or subclavian vein planned for at least 3 days.

This study is a single-centre, randomized, single-blind, controlled study of tolerability and safety of BIP CVC with noble metal alloy coating.

All statistical analyses is performed using the SAS® System, version 9.3 or higher (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA). Data is to be summarized using descriptive statistics.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing BIP CVC and Uncoated Standard CVC in people with Surgery and Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infections (CLABSI), run by Bactiguard AB at 1 site in Sweden.

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 4 inclusion and 8 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 23 Jun 2016. 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 Sweden. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

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?

Assessment of safety by evaluation of CVC related adverse events and any problems in post operative course. (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 10 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 23 Jun 2016.
