About this study

Intravascular volume expansion is a common intervention in critically ill patients with acute circulatory failure.we test the hypothesis that a mini-bolus fluid challenge, of either 50 ml , can predict fluid responsiveness in spontaneously breathing patients with hemodynamic instability.

Read the detailed description

Background:

Intravascular volume expansion is a common intervention in critically ill patients with acute circulatory failure. Nevertheless, approximately 50% of critically ill patients will not benefit from an intravascular volume expansion, since they are in the horizontal portion of the Frank-Starling curve.

Thus, an accurate assessment of fluid responsiveness prior to volume expansion is mandatory to avoid fluid overload, which has been associated with increased morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients.

Fluid challenge, which consists of administering fluid to assess volume responsiveness, is widely performed. However, repeated fluid challenges, several times a day, can be harmful Indeed, if cardiopulmonary function cannot compensate for the increase in preload, fluid loading can compromise micro-vascular perfusion and oxygen delivery or aggravate peripheral and pulmonary oedema.

For many years, spontaneous breathing was considered a major limitation to assess fluid responsiveness in critically ill patients .

In this study, the investigator test the hypothesis that a mini-bolus fluid challenge of 50 ml can predict fluid responsiveness in spontaneously breathing patients with hemodynamic instability.

Passive leg raising technique: Initially, the patient is placed semi-recumbent with the head of the bed at 45°. After recording baseline measurement, the head of the bed is lowered and the legs are elevated to 45° for 2 minutes.

Fluid challenge responsiveness:

Fluid responsiveness is defined as an increase in the cardiac output measured using FloTrac-Vigileo monitor (∆CO-PLR > 10%) after the PLR, separating the studied population into responders and non-responders.

Measurements:

Patients characteristics, including age and sex, are recorded at admission. The aetiology of acute circulatory failure, the inotropic and/or vasopressor support (epinephrine, norepinephrine and dobutamine) and the APACHE II score are recorded.

The following hemodynamic variables are recorded: heart rate (beats per minute), systolic blood pressure (mmHg), diastolic blood pressure (mmHg), and mean arterial blood pressure (mmHg). These variables are collected at baseline (T0), immediately before mini-bolus infusion (T50b, T50a), and immediately before the PLR manoeuvre (TPLRb and TPLRa).

Cardiac output (CO) and stroke volume (SV) are measured using both an EsCCO monitor (COescco and SVescco) and a FloTrac transducer connected to a Vigileo monitor (COflotrac and SVflotrac). CO and SV are measured at baseline, before and after each mini-bolus infusion, and before and after passive leg raising. They are recorded at the moment when they plateau. The hemodynamic variables cited above are also recorded at that time.

Changes -induced by the mini-boluses and by the PLR- in all parameters were measured; these were referred to as ∆[parameter]50 and ∆[parameter]PLR.

If patients were treated with norepinephrine, the dose remained unchanged from before volume expansion until all hemodynamic measurements were complete.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Mini bolus 50 and passive leg rising test in people with Fluid Therapy, run by University of Monastir at 2 sites in Tunisia.

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 6 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Tunisia. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Semir Nouira, Prof (+21673106046, semir.nouira.urg@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measurement of the cardiac flow with the Estimate Continuous CO escco and SVescco (EsCCO) to predict the fluid responsiveness . (time frame: at 3 minutes following fluid load in the day of admission). 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 9 Jul 2024.
