Trial summary

Patients admitted to the ICU in a tertiary burn centre in Kuwait were analysed using multiple mortality prediction scores. The accuracy of these scores were compared to each other to ascertain which prediction modality provides the most accurate prognosis. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Analysis and Accuracy of Mortality Prediction Scores in Burn Patients Admitted to the Intensive Care Burn Unit (ICBU)

Patients admitted to the ICU in a tertiary burn centre in Kuwait were analysed using multiple mortality prediction scores. The accuracy of these scores were compared to each other to ascertain which prediction modality provides the most accurate prognosis.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to determine the accuracy of three established scoring systems used for burn patients admitted to the intensive care unit and to determine the risk factors associated with poor outcomes.

A total of 211 patients with who were admitted to the ICBU in a tertiary care centre in Kuwait from January 2017 to December 2019 were analysed retrospectively. Data were collected using patient medical records. The FLAMES, BOBI and revised Baux scores were calculated, and the survivor and non-survivor scores of patients were analysed to determine the sensitivity, specificity and Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristics (AUROC) of the different scoring modalities.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Burns and Morality, run by Ministry of Health, Kuwait at 1 site in Kuwait.

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.

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?

Area under curve of the 3 aforementioned mortality prediction scores (time frame: 4 years). 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 3 Feb 2021.
