About this study

Official title: ULTRA-Peds: A Multicenter Data Registry for Outcomes for Pediatric Volume Overload

The ULTRA-Peds registry will employ a multi-center, single-arm, open-label, observational design to capture baseline, procedural and follow-up data on pediatric patients that have been treated (i.e., retrospective data from treatment at the time of registry approval by the IRB) or are scheduled to be treated (i.e., prospective data for on-label treatment after registry approval by the IRB) with Aquadex therapy according to local standard of care practices and decisions. All prospective data will be from on-label Aquadex treatment of pediatric patients weighing 20 kilograms or more. No data from prospective off-label treatment (i.e., Aquadex treatment with other adjunctive or conjunctive therapies for pediatric patients who may weigh less than 20kg) will be included in the registry. An estimated 10 sites in the United States who have received training in extracorporeal therapy and the Aquadex™ system will enroll a minimum of 500 patients.

Read the detailed description

The ULTRA-PEDs registry is designed to capture data in the real-World clinical setting on the Aquadex™ system in local standard of care, with the aim of understanding it's performance and utilization. Enrollment is expected to take approximately 2.5 years from the time the first patient is enrolled to the time the final patient is discharged from the hospital.

ULTRA-PEDs will allow prospective and retrospective data collection for the following scenarios:

  • All prospective data for on-label use only (i.e., Aquadex ultrafiltration therapy for pediatric patients weighing 20 kg or more, whose fluid overload is unresponsive to medical management, including diuretics).
  • Retrospective patients at the time of registry approval by IRB regardless of on-label or off-label use.
  • Retrospective on-label use
  • Retrospective off-label use (i.e., Aquadex ultrafiltration with other adjunctive or conjunctive therapies for pediatric patients who may weigh less than 20kg)

What is being measured

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

  1. Treatment Survival

    Patient survive treatment course

    Measured: Through completion of a treatment course, up to 3 months

  2. Survival at ICU discharge

    % of ICU patients survive treatment in ICU

    Measured: Through completion of a treatment course in the ICU, up to 1 month

  3. Change in Kidney Function

    Assessment of Kidney function

    Measured: Change eGFR and renal labs from initiation to completion of treatment, up to 3 months

  4. Hemodynamic stability at initiation of UF therapy

    Need resuscitation fluids and medications (e.g. vasoactive medication)

    Measured: From the time of index procedure is initiated up to 60 minutes after initiation

  5. Hemodynamic stability during treatment course

    Need for vasoactive medication

    Measured: Through completion of a treatment course, up to 3 months

  6. Change % fluid overload during treatment course

    % change in weight from initiation to the end of the last Aquadex procedure

    Measured: Through completion of a treatment course, up to 3 months

  7. Length of Stay in ICU

    Time of admission to ICU to discharge

    Measured: The time from admission to ICU through discharge from ICU, usually 1 month

  8. Change in PRISM III Score

    Physiologic variables and labs to assess mortality risk

    Measured: 2 hours before ICU admission through the first 4 hours after ICU discharge

  9. Aquadex related adverse events

    Aquadex related adverse events

    Measured: Through completion of a treatment course, up to 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Fluid Overload, run by Nuwellis, Inc. at 7 sites in United States.

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 9 inclusion and 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Feb 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: The study was stopped early only due to a business decision to pursue development of a pediatric dedicated device. This decision was not based on any efficacy or safety concerns."). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Treatment Survival (time frame: Through completion of a treatment course, up to 3 months). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. 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 20 Feb 2024.
