About this study

Official title: Assessment of Extra Vascular Lung Water and Pulmonary Permeability by Transpulmonary Thermodilution in Critically Ill Patients With Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a syndromic definition of an acute lung injury with alteration of biomechanics (lower respiratory system compliance) mostly associated with increased lesional edema. Increase in Pulmonary Vascular Permeability Index (PVPI) accompanied with accumulation of excess Extravascular Lung Water (EVLW) is the hallmark of ARDS. In routine clinical practice, the investigators measure the EVLW and PVPI in ARDS patients, as suggested by expert's recommendations, using a transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) technique.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a newly recognized illness that has spread rapidly throughout Wuhan (Hubei province) to other provinces in China and around the world. Most critically ill patients with SARS-CoV-2 will present the criteria for the definition of ARDS. However, many of these patients have a particular form of ARDS with severe hypoxemia often associated with near normal respiratory system compliance. This combination is almost never seen in severe ARDS. Thus other mechanisms (including probably vascular mechanisms), that are still poorly described, have to be involved in SARS-CoV-2.

EVLW and PVPI have never been assessed in SARS-CoV-2 mechanically ventilated patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate these two parameters in order to best characterize and understand the mechanisms related to SARS-CoV-2.

Based on observation of several cases in intensive care units (ICU), the investigators hypothesize that there are following different SARS-CoV-2 patterns:

  1. Nearly normal compliance, low lung recruitability, normal EVLW and low PVPI.
  2. Low compliance due to increased edema, high lung recruitability, high EVLW and high PVPI.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes of Extra Vascular Lung Water

    EVLW (ml/kg) measured by a PiCCO device using TPTD thermodilution

    Measured: Since intubation at day 0 and measured repetitively by 6 hours until day 3

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Changes of Pulmonary Vascular Permeability Index

    PVPI measured by a PiCCO device using TPTDventilation, duration of ICU length of stay, ICU mortality

    Measured: Since intubation at day 0 and measured repetitively by 6 hours until day 3

  2. Changes of pulmonary compliance

    Changes of pulmonary compliance (ml/mmHg)

    Measured: Since intubation at day 0 and measured repetitively by 6 hours until day 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COVID-19 and Pneumonia, run by University Hospital, Montpellier 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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Dec 2020. 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?

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?

Changes of Extra Vascular Lung Water (time frame: Since intubation at day 0 and measured repetitively by 6 hours until day 3). 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 29 Dec 2020.
