About this study

In this study, the investigators will investigate the relationship between the blood level of SuPAR at admission to the emergency department of the Clermont-Ferrand University Hospital, and the outcome of patients after their hospitalization in a short stay unit.

Read the detailed description

SuPAR (Soluble urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor) is a non-specific prognostic blood biomarker related to inflammation. An elevated SuPAR value reflects significant chronic inflammation and predicts a risk of negative outcome and even short-term mortality (intra-hospital, 30 days, 90 days). Conversely, a low SuPAR value is a strong indicator of good prognosis and low risk of readmission. It is therefore of interest to know a patient's SuPAR blood level to enable the clinician to decide whether the patient should be admitted or discharged. SuPAR has been shown to be the best prognostic marker associated with the presence and progression of disease and risk of mortality. The use of SuPAR in clinical routine adds significant complementary information to the standard Early Warning Score assessment and to the classical parameters such as CRP, PCT, Lactate, ALT, Bilirubin, and CBC in the pre-admission of acute patients.

Patients admitted to the emergency department will receive their usual management. We will test the added value of the SuPAR assay in the prognosis of patients' outcome at discharge.

What is being measured

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

  1. Relationship between blood supar levels and patient outcome at discharge

    Relation between blood supar levels measured and patient outcome at discharge evaluated as : return home = good evolution; hospitalization = bad evolution; admission to an intensive care unit or death = unfavorable evolution

    Measured: When the excepted 150 patients will be included, estimated 6 months

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. National Early Warning Score 2 (NEWS2)

    Score allowing the classification of the urgency of a patient. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 20. Higher scores mean a worse outcome

    Measured: Hour 0

  2. Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS)

    Score allowing the classification of the urgency of a patient. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 17. Higher scores mean a worse outcome

    Measured: Hour 0

  3. Blood supar levels

    the supar values are classifies into three categories : < 3 ng/ml : supports the referral decision. the patient's general condition is good and the prognosis is high 3-6 ng/ml : presence of pathologies and comorbidity factors. readmissions and high mortality beyond 6 months >6 ng/ml : requires special clinical attention, high risk of mortality

    Measured: When the excepted 150 patients will be included, estimated 6 months

  4. Blood CRP value

    the CRP value will be assessed during the blood test performed as part of the classical management when the patient arrives in the emergency room

    Measured: Hour 0

  5. Cardiac frequency

    cardiac frequency will be evaluated when the patient arrives in the emergency service as part of the classical management

    Measured: Hour 0

  6. Respiratory rate

    respiratory rate will be evaluated when the patient arrives in the emergency service as part of the classical management

    Measured: Hour 0

  7. Temperature

    the temperature will be evaluated when the patient arrives in the emergency service as part of the classical management

    Measured: Hour 0

  8. Systolic blood pressure

    systolic blood pressure will be evaluated when the patient arrives in the emergency service as part of the classical management

    Measured: Hour 0

  9. Diastolic blood pressure

    diastolic blood pressure will be evaluated when the patient arrives in the emergency service as part of the classical management

    Measured: Hour 0

  10. French triage

    French Emergency Nurses Classification in Hospitals (FRENCH) ranks priorities from 5 to 1 (from least urgent to most urgent) according to prognosis and complexity/severity of the medical condition

    Measured: Hour 0

  11. Main diagnosis retained by the physician

    Main diagnosis retained

    Measured: at the end of hospitalization

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Emergencies and Disease, run by University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand 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 7 inclusion and 6 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 13 Mar 2023. 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?

Relationship between blood supar levels and patient outcome at discharge (time frame: When the excepted 150 patients will be included, estimated 6 months). 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 13 Mar 2023.
