About this study

Official title: Hemostatic Disorders Impact on Intensive Care Patients.

  1. To assess the incidence of hemostatic disorders among ICU patients.
  2. To establish a relationship between supportive treatment and survival in patients with coagulopathy in ICU.
  3. To provide solutions that can help in reduction of the incidence of hemostatic disorders in ICU patients.
Read the detailed description

Hemostasis is the physiological process that stops bleeding at the site of an injury while maintaining normal blood flow elsewhere in the circulation. Blood loss is stopped by formation of a hemostatic plug. The endothelium in blood vessels maintains an anticoagulant surface that serves to maintain blood in its fluid state, but if the blood vessel is damaged components of the subendothelial matrix are exposed to the blood. Several of these components activate the two main processes of hemostasis to initiate formation of a blood clot, composed primarily of platelets and fibrin.

Many critically ill patients develop hemostatic abnormalities, ranging from isolated thrombocytopenia to complex defects, such as DIC. Coagulation abnormalities are commonly found in critically ill patients. Prompt and proper identification of the underlying cause of these coagulation abnormalities is required, since each coagulation disorder necessitates very different therapeutic management strategies.

Management of coagulopathy The key basic management principle of all coagulopathies is that the decision to transfuse blood products should not be based on the results of coagulation tests alone, rather an individualized approach is warranted. It is imperative to synthesizes all the available clinical data and treat the underlying cause.

In summary, hemostatic disorders are very common in the critically ill. Blood product support is frequently required, but there is only a very limited evidence-base to support its use. In many cases, no specific product support is required and the key management step is the treatment of the condition underlying the coagulopathy .

What is being measured

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

  1. Describe the Pattern of Homeostasis Disorders occur in Critical Care Unit in Assiut University

    Study the causes of either bleeding or thrombotic events in Critical care unit. Describe the pattern of the disease regarding age, sex and predisposing factors.

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Correlate Supportive and Definitive Treatment and Outcomes of Patients with Homeostasis Disorder in ICU.

    Study the forms of transfusion ( e.g.packed red blood cells, Platelet , Fresh frozen plasma), anti bleeding measures (e.g. Tranexamic acid), anticoagulant and anti platelet drugs received by the patients and their outcomes

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hemostatic Disorder, run by Assiut University.

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 3 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 Nov 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 Mohamed Fawzi Ibrahim, Master (+201099028136, muhammadfawzi10@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Describe the Pattern of Homeostasis Disorders occur in Critical Care Unit in Assiut University (time frame: Baseline). 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 NCT04179357, which also lists 2 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 27 Nov 2019.
