About this study

Official title: Neurological Prognostication Using Multi-channel Amplitude-integrated Electroencephalographic Monitoring in Cardiac Arrest Patients With Targeted Temperature Management

This study aims to examine the prognostic value of 18 channel amplitude-integrated EEG (aEEG) in comatose cardiac arrest patients The study design is a prospective observational study. Cardiac arrest patients undergoing targeted temperature management (TTM) will participate in the study. Relation of aEEG in each channel with the neurologic outcome at 6 month after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) will be evaluated.

Read the detailed description

Normal trace was defined as continuous cortical activity on the raw EEG scan; in addition, the upper margin of the aEEG scan, referred to as the aEEG maximum, was >10 μ V, and the lower margin of the aEEG scan, referred to as the aEEG minimum, was >5 μ V. The Time from ROSC to normal trace (TTNT, hours) is predictor of neurological outcome in these patients. We will evaluate the prognostic values of TTNTs in all aEEG channels.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to normal trace in each aEEG channel

    Normal trace was defined as continuous cortical activity on the raw EEG scan; in addition, the upper margin of the aEEG scan, referred to as the aEEG maximum, was >10 μ V, and the lower margin of the aEEG scan, referred to as the aEEG minimum, was >5 μ V. The Time from ROSC to normal trace (TTNT, hours) is predictor of neurological outcome in these patients. We will evaluate the prognostic values of TTNTs in all aEEG channels.

    Measured: at day 180

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. TTNT threshold for neurologic prognostication in each aEEG channel

    Using area under the curve (AUC) of each channel aEEG for neurological outcome, we will determine the best TTNT thresholds for good neurological outcome (CPC 1 to 2) in all aEEG channels.

    Measured: at day 180

  2. Alpha delta ratio of each channel aEEG for good neurological outcome (CPC 1 to 2)

    The percentage powers in the alpha, theta and delta bands and the ratio of the powers in different frequency bands (i.e., alpha/delta) will be calculated. Finally we will evaluate the prognostic values of these ratios of the different bands.

    Measured: at day 180

  3. Comparison of prognostic value between aEEG and various predictors

    We will compare the prognostic performances (i.e., sensitivity, specificity, AUC) for poor neurological outcome (CPC 3 to 5) between EEG and these predictors.

    Measured: at day 180

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Arrest and Targeted Temperature Management, run by Sang Hoon Oh at 1 site in South Korea.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Sep 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 South Korea. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Time to normal trace in each aEEG channel (time frame: at day 180). 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 26 Sep 2019.
