Trial summary

Fluid administration is a cornerstone therapy in critically ill patient. Fluid restriction or overload can therefore change patient's outcome and mortality. Close monitoring of PR (capacity of increase the cardiac output after fluid therapy) is recommended by experts' guidelines. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: "Performance of a Simplified Inferior Vena Cava Collapsibility Methodology to Predict Preload Responsiveness (PR) in Spontaneously Breathing and Critically Ill Patients"

Fluid administration is a cornerstone therapy in critically ill patient. Fluid restriction or overload can therefore change patient's outcome and mortality. Close monitoring of PR (capacity of increase the cardiac output after fluid therapy) is recommended by experts' guidelines. Few bedside simple tests are available to predict PR in spontaneously breathing patients.

A team of investigators from Lille (Roger Salengro hospital) have already showed that inferior vena cava collapsibility (cVCI) accuracy of prediction of PR is excellent in standardized sponteanous breathing patient. However, the standardized inspiration maneuver remains challenging because requiring specific and non-widely available equipment.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of this study is to confirmed the excellent accuracy of cVCI to predict PR when standardized inspiratory maneuver is simplified.

The secondary objective is to test cVCIs in different period of cardiac cycle guided by electrocardiogram.

After receiving a loyal information patients will give their non-objection. During systematic echocardiography, patients will have to breathe in different conditions in order to homogenize their inspiratory effort. This maneuver will be repeated three times.

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Spontaneous breathing patient responding to the inclusion criteriaDuring a transthoracic echocardiography, the doctor will realize * loops on inferior vena cava in different breathing conditions : * non standardized spontaneous breathing * simplified standardized spontaneous breathing using a TRIFLOW III spirometer device. Standardized inspiration is defined by the complete ascension of the first of the three device ball. * deep spontaneous inspiration defined by profound inspiration during < 3 seconds without calibration of inspiratory strengh * measure of subaortic velocity time integral (Vti) during a passive leg raising. Inferior vena cava collapsibility index will be calculated using inferior vena cava diameter, at 4 cm from right atrium abutment, using the following equation: (Diameter max - diameter min)/ diameter max. PR will be defined by 10% increase of Vti during passive leg raising.

What is being measured

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

  1. Performance of simplified inferior vena cava collapsibility index to predict preload responsiveness

    the area under the ROC curve of the parameter of simplification of inspiratory effort in relation to the positive hemodynamic response positive haemodynamic response (cardiac preload-dependence) to a passive leg raising manoeuvre

    Measured: The echocardiographic loops used to measure cVCI and preload responsiveness will be performed on the day of inclusion refered as baseline. Precise measurements will be conducted offline within the 6 months after the end of the inclusions.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Performance of inferior vena cava collapsibility index during a deep breath (without monitoring of inspiratory strength) to predict preload responsiveness

    comparison of the areas under the ROC curve for the parameter simplifying inspiratory effort during tele-diastole or tele-cardiac systole

    Measured: The echocardiographic loops used to measure cVCI and preload responsiveness will be performed on the day of inclusion refered as baseline. Precise measurements will be conducted offline within the 6 months after the end of the inclusions.

  2. Performance of simplified inferior vena cava collapsibility index to predict preload responsiveness during different time of cardiac cycle

    the area under the ROC curve of the parameter of simplification of inspiratory effort in relation to the positive hemodynamic response positive haemodynamic response (cardiac preload-dependence) to a passive leg raising manoeuvre

    Measured: The echocardiographic loops used to measure cVCI and preload responsiveness will be performed on the day of inclusion refered as baseline. Precise measurements will be conducted offline within the 6 months after the end of the inclusions.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Circulatory Failure, run by University Hospital, Lille at 1 site in 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 5 inclusion and 12 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 10 Apr 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 France. 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?

Performance of simplified inferior vena cava collapsibility index to predict preload responsiveness (time frame: The echocardiographic loops used to measure cVCI and preload responsiveness will be performed on the day of inclusion refered as baseline. Precise measurements will be conducted offline within the 6 months after the end of the inclusions.). 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 10 Apr 2025.
