Trial summary

Recent studies indicated the central venous pressure (CVP) as a prognostic marker. Therefore, we retrospectively analyzed the CVP on admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) in cardiac surgery patients regarding its prognostic value for morbidity and mortality. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: High Central Venous Pressure After Cardiac Surgery is Associated With Increased Morbidity and Mortality

Recent studies indicated the central venous pressure (CVP) as a prognostic marker. Therefore, we retrospectively analyzed the CVP on admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) in cardiac surgery patients regarding its prognostic value for morbidity and mortality.

What is being measured

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

  1. mortality

    In-Hospital mortality

    Measured: an average of 30 days

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Central venous pressure

    central venous pressure on intensive care unit

    Measured: intensive care unit stay, an average of 5 days

  2. Hospital stay

    Length of hospital stay

    Measured: an average of 13 days

  3. ICU stay

    Intensive care unit length of stay

    Measured: an average of 5 days

  4. ICU readmission

    Amount of hospital readmissions

    Measured: an average of 30 days

  5. Renal insufficiency - 1

    Incidence of renal insufficiency

    Measured: intensive care unit stay, an average of 5 days

  6. Renal insufficiency - 2

    dialysis duration

    Measured: intensive care unit stay, an average of 5 days

  7. Renal insufficiency - 3

    Urine production

    Measured: intensive care unit stay, an average of 5 days

  8. Stroke

    incidence of strokes

    Measured: hospital length of stay, an average of 13 days

  9. mortality rate-1

    mortality rate after 90 days

    Measured: 90 days

  10. mortality rate-2

    mortality rate after 180 days

    Measured: 180 days

  11. mortality rate-3

    mortality rate after 3 years

    Measured: 3 years

  12. mortality rate-4

    mortality rate after 1 year

    Measured: 1 year

  13. mortality rate-5

    mortality rate after 5 years

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Central Venous Pressure, run by Charite University, Berlin, Germany at 1 site in Germany.

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 5 inclusion and 2 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 25 Jul 2019. 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 Germany. 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?

mortality (time frame: an average of 30 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 25 Jul 2019.
