About this study

New Onset Cardiac Arrhythmias in Septic Patients in Critical Care Setting, Predictors and Outcomes

Read the detailed description

Sepsis is recently defined as life-threatening condition caused by dysregulated body response to infection leading to organ dysfunction and even death. Patients who are vulnerable to catch sepsis are those with immune-compromising diseases, old aged people and chronic medical condition such as diabetes, chronic kidney diseases or cancer. Sepsis is symptomized by fever or hypothermia, tachycardia, tachypnea. In critical care units, septic patient are predisposed to have different cardiovascular manifestation as atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, hypotension, etc. . Many studies reported the association between atrial fibrillation and septic patients in critical care as a complication of sepsis; but data regarding factors and fates is still insufficient. So in this study we aim to observe critical ill patients with sepsis to assess and evaluate the predisposing factors leading to new onset of cardiac arrhythmia in septic patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Risk Factors of cardiac arrhythmias in septic patients in CU.

    any medical condition precipitate the occurrence of cardiac arrhythmia

    Measured: 3 week from admission in CU

  2. Fates of cardiac arrhythmia.

    what complications will precipitate the arrhythmia or the recovery achievement

    Measured: 1 month from the primary endpoint

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The frequent type of arrhythmias.

    the most frequent type of cardiac arrhythmia

    Measured: 2 years from starting collaboration

  2. Mortality rate due to new onset arrhythmia.

    the number of deaths from the enrolled patients

    Measured: 2 years from starting collaboration

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Dina Sameh, Bachelor's (01211947776, dinakoka96@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Risk Factors of cardiac arrhythmias in septic patients in CU. (time frame: 3 week from admission in CU). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT06351956, which also lists 2 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 8 Apr 2024.
