Trial summary

Fifty percent of children that survive a critical illness are anemic at discharge from the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU)(1). Given that there are approximately 9000 PICU admissions/year in Canada, this represents almost 4500 children per year. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Accuracy of the Noninvasive Radical-7 Pulse Co-oximeter at Detecting Hemoglobin Changes in Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care

Fifty percent of children that survive a critical illness are anemic at discharge from the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU)(1). Given that there are approximately 9000 PICU admissions/year in Canada, this represents almost 4500 children per year. Anemia is associated with abnormal neurocognitive development in infants and young children. A contributor to PICU anemia is the excessive amount of blood testing and iatrogenic blood losses(2). Non-invasive continuous hemoglobin monitoring (Sp-Hb) have been developed in the medical setting in an attempt to minimize invasive blood testing and reduce blood losses. The Radical 7 Masimo device (Masimo corporation, Irvine, CA) is one of the popular devices used for non-invasive hemoglobin monitoring. Its accuracy has been previously investigated in various populations(3-6). The objective of this study is to investigate the validity of the Radical 7 Masimo device at measuring hemoglobin trends non-invasively in critically ill children.

Read the detailed description

This will be a prospective observational study. We will include 1) all patients that are admitted to the PICU of the CHUSJ after a cardiac surgery, 2) that are aged less than 6 months on the day of admission and that 3) have an arterial line inserted.

All children studied will have an arterial line inserted at the time of surgery that will allow for arterial-Hb measurements. As this study is strictly observational, all arterial-Hb measurements will be requested by the medical treating team as clinically indicated. We will install, on admission, the spectrophotometric adhesive sensor required for Sp-Hb measurements on each patient (Masimo Rainbow R1 20 for children over 30 kg and R1 20L for those under 30 kg). The sensor will be applied on the hand or foot that does not have an arterial cannula. The sensor will be covered with an impermeable black shield to prevent optical interference.

We will collect all the arterial-Hb measurements performed in the 48 hours after PICU admission as well as all the Sp-Hb readings performed at the time of the arterial samples. The blood samples drawn from the arterial catheter will be analyzed using a laboratory CO-oximeter (model ABL820; Radiometer, Copenhagen, Denmark). Simultaneous recording of Sp-Hb will performed within 10 seconds after the arterial blood sample is drawn. We will also collect demographic data and clinical data on each patient; age, weight, sex, ethnicity, type of cardiac surgery, blood transfusions. At the CHUSJ PICU, all clinical and demographic data is systematically recorded in our electronic database (Intellispace Critical Care and Anesthesia, Philips Medical Systems). Data on red cell transfusions are recorded through the TracelineTM database that is made available to our research group through Héma-Québec. Data will be extracted from our database by our research assistant.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Evaluate the Accuracy of the Masimo Radical 7 Hemoglobin Noninvasive Monitor, run by St. Justine's Hospital.

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 0 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 6 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Geneviève Du Pont-Thibodeau, MD, MSc (5143454931 ext. 5553, genevievedpt@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To determine the precision of the Radical-7 pulse co-oximeter at detecting changes in Hb levels when comparted to arterial-Hb levels changes in children admitted to the PICU after a cardiac surgery. (time frame: 3 months). 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 6 Jun 2019.
