About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of the Gastric Reactance (XL) in the Prediction of Morbimortality in Patients Post-operated of Elective Cardiac Surgery

Evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the XL trend measured by Florence (Critical Perfusion Inc, Palo Alto, California) in the prediction of morbimortality of Mexican patients post-operated of elective cardiovascular surgery.

Hypothesis: 1. The gastric reactance measurement (XL) correlates with the morbimortality (postoperatory shock, excessive bleeding, vasoplegic syndrome and death) and with the risk predictors (APACHE II, STS, SOFA, and EUROSCORE II) with patients post-operated of elective cardiac surgery. 2. It is possible to identify the cut-off point of the values of the gastric reactance (XL) as a predictive tool of morbimortality in patients post-operated of elective cardiac surgery. 3. The gastric reactance (XL) is a safe measurement to patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Read the detailed description

A maximum of 35 patients with age greater or equal to 18 years with elective surgery (valvular surgery, revascularization, or a combination of both) that comply with the inclusion/exclusion criteria of this protocol will be enrolled.

Investigational device: Florence (Gastric Impedance Spectrometer System or ISMO). Comparative with Risk scales SOFA, APACHE II, STS, Euroscore II, hemodynamic variables, lactate and mixed venous saturation.

The Florence catheter will be placed at the beginning of the surgery and up to 72 hours in ICU.

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation between gastric reactance (XL) and morbimortality and risk predictors

    Multivariate analysis to observe variability between different events according to data distribution to determine how is affecting the risk scales, hemodynamic variables, lactate and mixed venous oxygen saturation, morbidity and mortality with central gastric reactance (XL).

    Measured: 72 hours

  2. Sensibility and specificity of the collected variables

    ROC curves will be calculated to determine sensibility and specificity of the variables.

    Measured: 72 hours

  3. Adverse events tracing with the use of Florence catheter

    Serious Adverse Device Effects and Adverse Events assessment to evaluate device safety.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Correlations between XL measurements and medication

    Multivariate analysis to observe variability between different events according to data distribution to determine how is affecting XL with amines, proton-pump inhibitors, and anesthesia medications.

    Measured: 72 hours

  2. Correlations between laboratory parameters and XL

    Multivariate analysis to observe variability between different events according to data distribution to determine how is affecting XL with laboratory parameters.

    Measured: 72 hours

  3. Usability of Florence device in a real environment.

    Questionnaire for the nurse and/or the physician regarding the use of Florence device at the Operating Room and Intensive Care Unit.

    Measured: 72 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Florence device in people with Cardiac Failure and Ventricular Dysfunction, run by Critical Perfusion Inc. at 1 site in Mexico.

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 7 inclusion and 10 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 23 Jan 2020. 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 Mexico. 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?

Correlation between gastric reactance (XL) and morbimortality and risk predictors (time frame: 72 hours). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Jan 2020.
