About this study

Official title: Proadrenomedullin as a Severity Score and Prognostic Marker in Intra-abdominal Sepsis

An observational, prospective study whose main objective is to measure the value of Pro-adrenomedullin as a prognostic marker and predictor of mortality in patients with intra-abdominal sepsis after damage control surgery.

Read the detailed description

Proadrenomedullin as a Severity Score and Prognostic Marker in Intra-abdominal Sepsis

Research Type:

Prospective, observational study.

Duration:

October 2016 - October 2017

Associated Medical Centers:

La Paz University Hospital (Madrid), La Princesa Hospital (Madrid), Hospital del Mar (Barcelona), Hospital Clínico de Valladolid and Hospital Clínico de Valencia.

Main Goal:

To measure the value of Pro-adrenomedullin as a prognostic marker and predictor of mortality in patients with intra-abdominal sepsis after damage control surgery.

Secondary Goals:

Make a comparison with other biomarkers (procalcitonin, lactic acid, CRP) and clinical severity scales used in standard critical practice (SAPSII, SOFA).

To establish a correlation between the levels of Pro-Adrenomedullin, the time of stay in critical care units, days of mechanical ventilation and mortality.

Variables:

  1. Demographics
  2. Date of admission to hospital and date of admission to critical care unit unit
  3. Clinical data:
  • Associated diseases
  • SAPS II
  • SOFA
  1. Intra-abdominal infection episode data
  • Systemic response: sepsis / septic shock
  • Isolated microorganisms in blood cultures and intra-abdominal fluid
  • Complications related to the infectious process (ARDS, need for mechanical ventilation, vasopressors, disseminated intravascular coagulation, acute renal failure, renal replacement techniques)
  1. Follow-up
  • Critical unit registration date
  • Date of discharge from hospital
  • Critical unit mortality, in-hospital mortality and 30 days mortality (assessed by telephone contact if the patient had been discharged).
  1. Pro-adrenomedullin levels at admission, 24 and 72 hours. As well as procalcitonin (PCT), lactic acid and polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) levels.

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ana Maria Montero Feijoo (+34696079362, anamonterofeijoo@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

mortality (time frame: 30 days). 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 NCT03061500, which also lists 5 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 23 Feb 2017.
