About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Long-term Health-related Quality of Life After Massive Burn Injury : A Twenty Years' Experience in a Burn Center

Massive burns are serious life-threatening conditions. Recent advances in their management now allow the survival of a growing number of patients. The burn care paradigm is transformed: the evaluation of survival at the end of acute care is no longer sufficient for a good evaluation of practices; the attention now focuses on long-term health-related quality of life (HR-QOL).The recently validated French translation of the burn specific health scale brief version makes this evaluation now feasible in French burn centers. The objectives of this study are to evaluate the HR-QOL of massive burn survivors, to compare it to another chronic condition (necrotizing fasciitis) and to determine the main predictive factor of health-related quality of life. This study is retrospectively conducted in 18 patients who survived a massive burn injury involving more than 80% of the total body surface area, or more than 70% of the total body surface area if the injury occured during childhood and who were treated between 1997 and 2017 in our Lyon burn center. Short Form-36 Medical Outcomes Survey (SF-36), and Brief Version of Burn Specific Health Scale (BSHS-B) are used for the present evaluation.

Read the detailed description

The hypotheses are as follows:

  • the HR-QOL of massive burns shows a significative alteration compared to general population
  • this alteration is comparable with another chronic disease
  • the main predictors of impaired quality of life related to physical health status are hand injury, age at time of burn and time since burn
  • the main predictive factors of change in quality of life related to mental health status are age of onset and facial involvement.

What participants receive

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

  • Evaluation of health-related quality of lifeOther

    Short Form-36 Medical Outcomes Survey (SF-36), and Brief Version of Burn Specific Health Scale (BSHS-B) are used for the present evaluation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Short Form-36 Medical Outcomes Survey (SF-36) sub domain score

    The impact of massive burn injury is measured for each SF 36 sub domain and compared to general population score.

    Measured: Data concerning HR-QOL was retrospectively collected in July 2018 for all patients with a massive burn injury occuring during 1997 and 2017

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Patients With Massive Burn Injury, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

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 4 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 7 Sep 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 France. 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?

Short Form-36 Medical Outcomes Survey (SF-36) sub domain score (time frame: Data concerning HR-QOL was retrospectively collected in July 2018 for all patients with a massive burn injury occuring during 1997 and 2017). 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 7 Sep 2018.
