Trial summary

Children supported by Extra-Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) present a high risk of neurological complications and cerebral autoregulation (CA) impairment may be a risk factor. The first objective is to investigate the association between CA impairments and neurological outcome assessed by the onset of an ANE. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 1 day to 18 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: 100 children admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) of Nantes (France), Trousseau (Paris, France), Necker (Paris, France) or Genoa (Italy) and supported by ECMO for hemodynamic or respiratory indication or during cardiac arrest resuscitation will be included in the study. As ECMO is an emergency procedure, emergency inclusions may be needed. Other observational study may be conducted in parallel in this population.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients under the age of 18 years treated by ECMO

Who cannot join

  • Lack of parental consent

About this study

Official title: Cerebral Autoregulation in Pediatric ECMO (ECMOX 2) : Autoregul ECMO - ECMOX2

Children supported by Extra-Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) present a high risk of neurological complications and cerebral autoregulation (CA) impairment may be a risk factor. The first objective is to investigate the association between CA impairments and neurological outcome assessed by the onset of an ANE. The secondary objective is to study the underlying mechanisms influencing CA.

Read the detailed description

Patients : All children treated by ECMO in the 4 PICUs involved in the study

Measurements : A correlation coefficient between the variations of regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) as a surrogate of cerebral blood flow and the variations of arterial blood pressure (ABP) is calculated as an index of autoregulation (cerebral oxygenation index (COx), ICM+ software®). CA is monitored either on left (COxl) or both sides. A COx > 0.3 is considered as critical. Neurological outcome is assessed by the onset of an acute neurologic event (ANE) during the ECMO run.

What is being measured

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

  1. Association between CA metrics and neurological outcome

    Association between the percentage of time spent in critical region of CA and the onset of an acute neurological event (stroke and/or seizures and/or brain death) or not.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Analysis of the influence of PCO2 on CA

    Association between PCO2 value (mmHg) and COX value

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Analysis of the influence of PCO2 on CA

    Influence of ECMO settings on CA

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) and Cardiogenic Shock, run by Nantes University Hospital at 4 sites in 2 countries.

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 11 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in France, Italy. 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?

Association between CA metrics and neurological outcome (time frame: 1 year). 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 11 Jan 2024.
