About this study

Official title: An Observational Study of Tissue Oxygen Monitoring for Detecting Impending Shock States in the Critically Ill and Those Undergoing High Risk Surgery

The extent and duration of tissue hypoxia is a major determinant of outcome following major, high-risk surgery and in critical illness. Prompt restoration of tissue oxygenation through resuscitation in all likelihood improves outcomes. There are currently no bedside monitors in clinical practice that track tissue perfusion per se, instead clinicians rely on crude surrogates such as heart rate and blood pressure, urine output, serum lactate of global flow (cardiac output) monitoring.

This is a first-in-man trial of a new device to measure tissue oxygenation in real time in a major, high-risk surgical and critical care cohort. The device consists of an oxygen sensing probe incorporated into a modified urinary catheter, which relies on photoluminescence technology and the quenching properties of oxygen.

Once inserted, the drained bladder collapses round and envelopes the probe which continuously measures tissue oxygenation of the bladder urothelium.

The investigators hope to (i) Establish that tissue oxygenation can be safely monitored using this technology, deployed in this way. (ii) Define a normal range for bladder tissue oxygenation in man as measured using this device. (iii) Compare tissue oxygenation against other markers of perfusion status in current clinical practice and assess its performance at detecting inadequate perfusion against these other modalities. (iv) assess the diagnostic and prognostic capabilities of the tissue oxygenation monitoring at detecting hypo-perfusion and predicting outcome. (v) Further assess the tissue response to an 'oxygen challenge' in identifying occult hypo-perfusion. (vi). Provide pilot work required to inform future, interventional studies where similar patients would be resuscitated to tissue oxygenation targets alongside routine clinical practice.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to identification of a low bladder tissue PO2 versus time to development of hyperlactatemia (2 mmol/l)

    Comparison of bladder tissue PO2 values (normal range to be defined as part of this first-in-man study) against lactate values >2 mmol/l

    Measured: Up to 7 days

  2. Time to identification of a low bladder tissue PO2 versus time to development of hypotension (mean BP <60 mmHg)

    Comparison of bladder tissue PO2 values (normal range to be defined as part of this first-in-man study) against mean BP values <60 mmHg

    Measured: Up to 7 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Participants With Device-Related Adverse Events

    Monitoring of direct device-related complications (e.g. bleeding, bladder perforation)

    Measured: Up to 28 days

  2. Identification of future complications in postoperative patients

    Low bladder tissue PO2 values identify postoperative complications using POMS-score-defined morbidity at Days 3 and 7

    Measured: Up to 7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Shock and Sepsis, run by University College London Hospitals at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 5 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 2 May 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 United Kingdom. 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 Mervyn Singer, MB BS (+44-207-679-6714, m.singer@ucl.ac.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to identification of a low bladder tissue PO2 versus time to development of hyperlactatemia (2 mmol/l) (time frame: Up to 7 days). The study lists 2 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 2 May 2019.
