About this study

The goal of this observational study is to compare in ICU patients received CVVH treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Control of Filtration fraction by built-in calculator

  • Reduced filter clotting and prolong filter lifespan
  • Improve patient mortality Participants will divided into before group and after group based on the day when built-in calculator for calculating Filtration fraction was utilized.

Researchers will compare before group to see if there were differences in clotting events, filter downtime, filter lifespan, mortality, etc.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of CVVH and Filtration Fraction, run by Taipei Medical University at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 6 Dec 2022. 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 Taiwan. 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?

Mortality (time frame: 30 days, 60 days, "through study completion, an average of 1.5 year" mortality in ICU and in Hospital). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05638711, which also lists 17 linked publications.

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 6 Dec 2022.
