About this study

Official title: The Efficacy of Initial Hemopurification Strategy for Acute Paraquat Poisoning in Adults: Study Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial (HeSAPP)

HeSAPP is a single-center, non-blinded, parallel-group randomized controlled trial studying the hemopurification strategy for acute paraquat(PQ) poisoned patients. The intervention to be investigated include hemodialysis (HD), hemoperfusion (HP), combined hemoperfusion-hemodialysis concurrent therapy (HP-HD) and conservative therapy. The object of the present trial is to investigate whether hemopurification therapy can reduce mortality compared with conservative therapy.

Read the detailed description

Patients diagnosed with acute paraquat poisoning in the Emergency Room of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University would be stratified according to their urine dithionite test results and randomly assigned to four different groups: HD, HP, HP-HD and control (conservative therapy) group for different treatment. Arterial blood gas test, complete blood count, coagulation function, liver function, pancreatic function, urine dithionite test, renal function and chest radiographs would be closely monitored during treatment. Primary endpoint is 28-day mortality. Secondary endpoints include (1) survival time (from the time of PQ ingestion to the time of death), all-cause mortality at the 3rd, 7th and 60th day; (2) rate of necessary oxygen uptake and rate of mechanical ventilation; (3) in-hospital length of stay and ICU length of stay; (4) APACHE II score and PSS score; (5) rate of general complications, such as respiratory failure, acute kidney injury (AKI), acute liver failure, pancreas function abnormality and Multiple Organ Failure (MOF); (6) rate of intervention related complications, such as catheter placement related complications, thrombocytopenia and deep venous thrombosis; (7) rate of adverse events, which include unexpected death, severe hemorrhage or edema, unplanned extubation, coagulation in the extracorporeal circulation, blockage of cartridge, incorrect pipe connection, etc.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • HemodialysisProcedure or surgery

    Participants in this group will be catheterize in the internal jugular vein and connect to a hemodialysis machine.

  • HemoperfusionProcedure or surgery

    Participants in this group will be catheterize in the internal jugular vein and connect to a hemoperfusion machine.

  • HP-HDProcedure or surgery

    Participants in this group will be catheterize in the internal jugular vein and connect to a hemoperfusion machine and then a hemodialysis machine for one course.

What is being measured

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

  1. 28-day all-cause mortality

    Mortality=Dead patients/All patients in that group

    Measured: From the day of intoxication to the 28th day afterwards.

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Survival time

    Live day count.

    Measured: From the day of intoxication to death or the 60th day.

  2. Rate of multiple organ failure

    Patients that develop multiple organ failure/All patients in that group

    Measured: From the day of intoxication to death or the 60th day.

  3. Rate of oxygen uptake

    Patients that need oxygen therapy/All patients in that group

    Measured: From the day of intoxication to death or the 60th day.

  4. Rate of mechanical ventilation

    Patients that need mechanical ventilation/All patients in that group

    Measured: From the day of intoxication to death or the 60th day.

  5. In-hospital length of stay

    Day count from admission to discharge or the end of follow up.

    Measured: From the day of admission to discharge or up to 60 days after admission.

  6. 3-day all-cause mortality

    Mortality=Dead patients/All patients in that group

    Measured: From the day of intoxication to the 3rd day afterwards.

  7. 7-day all-cause mortality

    Mortality=Dead patients/All patients in that group

    Measured: From the day of intoxication to the 7th day afterwards.

  8. 60-day all-cause mortality

    Mortality=Dead patients/All patients in that group

    Measured: From the day of intoxication to the 60th day afterwards.

  9. ICU length of stay

    Day count spent in intensive care unit

    Measured: From the day of intoxication to death or the 60th day.

  10. Rate of catheter related complications

    Complications due to catheterization, e.g. thrombocytopenia, deep venous thrombosis, catheter related infection.

    Measured: From the day of intoxication to death or the 60th day.

What does the primary outcome measure?

28-day all-cause mortality (time frame: From the day of intoxication to the 28th day afterwards.). 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 NCT03314909, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
