Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 99 years
  • All sexes
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: patients who were hospitalized between 2016 and 2021 for cardiogenic shock requiring Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, outside the context of cardiac arrest, managed in the ICU.

Who may be able to join

  • Patient of legal age (> 18 years) at the time of data collection.
  • Hospitalization in intensive care unit
  • Cardiogenic shock of medical or surgical etiology according to the SCAI definition (stage B to E)
  • Need for cardio-circulatory assistance such as Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for at least 24 hours

Who cannot join

  • - Age < 18 years
  • In-hospital and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
  • Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation set up at a center other than the study centers.
  • Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation set up for less than 24 hours
  • Death within 24 hours

About this study

The primary objective of this work is to study the 1-year prognosis of patients who received Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for cardiogenic shock with the need for blood transfusion. Secondary objectives are to determine whether the transfusion strategy used (liberal or restrictive) still has an impact on overall mortality. We will also determine the factors associated with overall in-hospital mortality and look at the impact of transfusion in relation to the risk of hemolysis on the consequences in the occurrence of long-term chronic renal failure.

Read the detailed description

The study of the prognostic impact of blood transfusion at 1 year in patients assisted by Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in the context of cardiogenic shock would provide objective answers and optimize the decision to set up this assistance with regard to the possible long-term consequences. This decision currently remains at the discretion of the expert teams managing these patients.

The inclusion of patients in a state of cardiogenic shock under Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation with the need for transfusion, will therefore allow the elaboration of a multicentric observational study interested in the prognosis at 1 year of patients under VA ECMO according to the adopted transfusion threshold.

What is being measured

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

  1. 1-year survival

    To evaluate the association of blood transfusion (and its volume of administration) with the 1-year prognosis of patients managed with Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for medical or post cardiotomy cardiogenic shock

    Measured: date of start of intensive care hospitalization to date of discharge from intensive care hospitalization assessed up to 1 year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. All-cause mortality rate during hospitalization for cardiogenic shock with the need for Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

    Assess the association between transfusion strategy as assessed by hemoglobin nadir during hospitalization with all-cause mortality.

    Measured: date of start of intensive care hospitalization to date of discharge from intensive care hospitalization assessed up to 3 months

  2. 30-day mortality

    To evaluate the association of blood transfusion (and its volume of administration) with the 30-day prognosis of patients managed with Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for medical or postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock

    Measured: date of start of intensive care hospitalization to date of discharge from intensive care hospitalization assessed up to 30 days

  3. Number of patients with stage 4 chronic kidney disease (GFR <30 mL/min) or with the need for chronic dialysis at 30 days.

    Assess the association of transfusion strategy with the occurrence of chronic renal failure (GFR <30 mL/min or with the need for chronic dialysis) at 30 days.

    Measured: date of start of intensive care hospitalization to date of discharge from intensive care hospitalization assessed up to 30 days

  4. Number of patients with stage 4 chronic kidney disease (GFR <30 mL/min) or with need for chronic dialysis at 1 year.

    Evaluate the association of transfusion strategy with the occurrence of chronic renal failure (GFR <30 mL/min or with the need for chronic dialysis) at 1 year

    Measured: date of start of intensive care hospitalization to date of discharge from intensive care hospitalization assessed up to 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Complication and Blood Cells Transfusion, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 25 Jan 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

1-year survival (time frame: date of start of intensive care hospitalization to date of discharge from intensive care hospitalization assessed up to 1 year). 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 NCT05696210, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 25 Jan 2023.
