The Blood Pressure Analysis on Critically Ill Patients

An observational study of Multiple Organ Failure and Intensive Care Unit Syndrome, run by Taoyuan General Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

Unknown status

Status not confirmed. The sponsor has not verified this record for over two years, so it may be out of date.

Trial summary

The study is to explore the relationship between coefficient of variation of harmonic magnitude (HCV) and different organ failures among those critically ill patients. In the future, we can act as a warning system on patients with multiple organ failures or terminal illness, also as an indicator of treatment effect. Read more about this study

What participants receive

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

  • ICU patientDiagnostic test

    Our study is to measure the coefficient of variation of the HCV of the radial arterial pulse among ICU patients with multiple organ failures (MOF). Patients admitted to Taoyuan General Hospital were recorded during the 6 months study.

Study groups in NCT03827369
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ICU patientPulse pressure of the radical artery was obtained by arterial line. The output of the transducer was connected to an IBM PC for analysis via an A/D converter with sampling rate = 250 datapoints/sec. The pulse spectrum was analyzed with the Fourier transformation using T (period) = 1 pulse time.

What is being measured

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

  1. Coefficient of variation of harmonic magnitude

    We measure the blood pressure of participants with multiple organ failures (MOF) by pressure transducer during the 6 months study in the ICU of Taoyuan General Hospital. The radial artery pressure pulse of both hands are recorded with a pressure transducer fixed on the skin with tape and an adjustable belt with a small button to achieve suitable pressure.

    Measured: 15 min

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Multiple Organ Failure and Intensive Care Unit Syndrome, run by Taoyuan General Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 2 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 27 Mar 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 Taiwan. 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?

Contact Tzu-Yi Chuang (886-3-3699721 ext. 3787, revival_chuang@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Coefficient of variation of harmonic magnitude (time frame: 15 min). 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 27 Mar 2020.
