About this study

Official title: Focus Cardiac Ultrasound in Patients With Undifferentiated Shock: Prospective Observational Study

The aim of this study is to analyze in patients with undifferentiated shock, the concordance of initial treatment before and after Focus cardiac ultrasound (FoCUS) in comparison with the reference one established by an adjudication committee

Read the detailed description

Focus cardiac ultrasound (FoCUS) has already demonstrated its ability to reduce diagnosis uncertainty in patients with undifferentiated shock. However, adequacy of initial treatment has not been investigated.

In patients with undifferentiated shock, after clinical evaluation, the physician states its hypothesis and initial treatment intention in closed list. He realizes a FoCUS, states another time the hypothesis and begins treatment according to FoCUS results. An adjudication committee with all the patient's file will state the reference hypothesis and treatment

What is being measured

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

  1. concordance of initial treatment after FoCUS with Kappa coefficient

    concordance between initial treatment after clinical procedure, after FoCUS in comparison with the reference stated by the adjudication committee with Kappa coefficient

    Measured: Hospitalization duration, up to one month

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. duration of FoCUS

    concordance between initial diagnosis after clinical procedure, after FoCUS in comparison with the reference stated by the adjudication committee

    Measured: Hospitalization duration, up to one month

  2. difficulty of FoCUS

    concordance between initial diagnosis after clinical procedure, after FoCUS in comparison with the reference stated by the adjudication committee

    Measured: Hospitalization duration, up to one month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Shock, run by Nantes University Hospital 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 1 inclusion and 4 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 22 Jul 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

concordance of initial treatment after FoCUS with Kappa coefficient (time frame: Hospitalization duration, up to one month). 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 22 Jul 2019.
