About this study

Official title: Balance Study on ICU-acquired Hypernatremia and Sodium Handling

The goal of this study is to find differences between patients who do and do not develop ICU-acquired hypernatremia (IAH). Therefore extended sodium and fluid balances will be performed. Also a couple of other factors that possibly contribute to the development of IAH and/or could give clues about the mechanisms in the development of IAH will be investigated.

Read the detailed description

ICU-acquired hypernatremia (IAH) is common in critically ill patients, but it's aetiology is still not fully understood. Sodium overload and inadequate fluid administration are generally considered important factors, but a previous retrospective study did not reveal differences in sodium or fluid balances between patients who did and did not develop IAH. Because this was retrospective these balances will be prospectively studied in this study to be more sure about the importances of these balances in the development of IAH. Previous studies indicated that (a lot) more factors contribute to the development of IAH. In this study these factors will be investigated, hoping to find differences between patients who do and do not develop IAH.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sodium balance

    Differences in sodium balances between patients who do and do not develop IAH

    Measured: During ICU-admission

  2. Fluid balance

    Differences in fluid balances between patients who do and do not develop IAH

    Measured: During ICU-admission

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Kidney function

    Differences in parameters concerning kidney function (creatinine, urea) between patients who do and do not develop IAH

    Measured: During ICU-admission

  2. Inflammation

    Differences in inflammation (CRP, infections) between patients who do and do not develop IAH

    Measured: During ICU-admission

  3. Nutritional state

    Differences in nutritional state (albumin, BIVA-measurement) between patients who do and do not develop IAH

    Measured: During ICU-admission

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of ICU-acquired Hypernatremia, run by Frisius Medisch Centrum at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 1 inclusion and 6 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 18 Jul 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 Netherlands. 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?

Sodium balance (time frame: During ICU-admission). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03093766, which also lists 3 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 18 Jul 2018.
