About this study

Official title: Epidemiological Patterns for Early Onset and Late Onset Bacteremia After Trauma

Presence of pelvic and liver injury on arrival in ED, gastrointestinal tract perforation and massive transfusion within the first 24 hours after trauma appear a significant risk factor for bacteremia. Scoring with the ISS, intra-abdominal and pelvic injury and presence of transfusion and shock at admission to ED appears a useful tool for identifying trauma patients at increased risk of bacteremia.

Read the detailed description

Purpose: Bacteremia is a major nosocomial infection problem in view of its high mortality. Bacteremia occurs in trauma patients frequently and increases a morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors and to describe epidemiological patterns for early onset (EOB) and late onset (LOB) bacteremia after trauma.

Methods: All trauma patients admitted to surgical intensive care unit (SICU) and general ward (GW) from January 2011 to December 2015 were retrospectively enrolled. The following information was collected for each patient and recorded in a computer database: demography, severity of trauma according to the Injury Severity Score (ISS) and each abbreviated injury score (AIS), severity of coma according to the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), presence of shock and transfusion. Early onset bacteremia was defined as EOB when onset occurred within 7 days after trauma, and late onset bacteremia was defined as LOB when appearing after 7 days from trauma.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bacteremia, run by Asan Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Aug 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 South Korea. 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?

Risk factor for bacteremia after trauma (time frame: 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04042636, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 Aug 2019.
