Trial summary

Viscoelastic testing is a highly recommended cornerstone of modern coagulation medicine, reducing transfusion needs. A disadvantage of viscoelastic tests is the impossibility of making a definitive statement about the platelet count. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Machine Learning Based Prediction of Platelet Concentration From ROTEM Measurements

Viscoelastic testing is a highly recommended cornerstone of modern coagulation medicine, reducing transfusion needs. A disadvantage of viscoelastic tests is the impossibility of making a definitive statement about the platelet count.

Therefore, the aim of this retrospective observational study is, on the one hand, to predict the platelet count based on standard ROTEM parameters with the help of several machine learning methods and, on the other hand, to detect a low platelet count ( <100000 ml-1 and < 50000 ml-1).

Thrombocytopenia

What is being measured

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

  1. Predicition of platelet conentration from ROTEM measurements using machine learning

    Several machine learning techniques for the prediction of the platelet concentration from ROTEM parameters (regression approach), namely linear regression, Random Forest, neural network, gradient boosting machine (GBM) and adaptive boosting (ADA) will be assessed. Describing the quality of these prediction models, the mean square error (MSE), the root of the mean of the square of errors(RMSE), the mean absolute error (MAE), and the root mean squared logarithmic error (RMSLE), and the coefficient of determination (R2) will be used.

    Measured: Obtained ROTEM analyses are the baseline at all four centres and patients will be included if platelets were determined concomitantly within three hours on the same day.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Thrombocytopenia, run by Kepler University Hospital at 1 site in Austria.

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 2 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Mar 2025. 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 Austria. 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?

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?

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?

Predicition of platelet conentration from ROTEM measurements using machine learning (time frame: Obtained ROTEM analyses are the baseline at all four centres and patients will be included if platelets were determined concomitantly within three hours on the same day.). 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 11 Mar 2025.
