Trial summary

The aim of this pilot study is to determine, as exhaustively as possible thanks to the continuous and precise recording of heart rhythm, the frequency of de novo atrial fibrillation in septic shock, which is currently unknown, and to identify specific factors that could be associated with the condition.

About this study

Official title: Prospective Study on the Frequency of de Novo Atrial Fibrillation in Septic Shock in Medical Intensive Care

The aim of this pilot study is to determine, as exhaustively as possible thanks to the continuous and precise recording of heart rhythm, the frequency of de novo atrial fibrillation in septic shock, which is currently unknown, and to identify specific factors that could be associated with the condition. These will be investigated more precisely in a future study. This constitutes the first step in a reflection on the management of Cardiac Arrhythmia by Atrial fibrillation (ACFA) in septic shock in Medical Intensive Care, known as a major prognostic factor for morbimortality, but for which management is uncertain in the absence of reference data.

What is being measured

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

  1. Atrial fibrillation diagnosed on a Holter recording

    Measured: Over 7 days following the onset of septic shock, or until death or discharge, if one of these events occurs in the 7 days following the onset of the shock.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Holter in people with Septic Shock and Atrial Fibrillation, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Dijon 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 4 Aug 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 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?

Atrial fibrillation diagnosed on a Holter recording (time frame: Over 7 days following the onset of septic shock, or until death or discharge, if one of these events occurs in the 7 days following the onset of the shock.). 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 4 Aug 2016.
