About this study

Official title: Central Venous Oxygen Saturation Impact on Prognosis of Post Arrest Patients

The study aim will be to assess the prognostic impact and value of central venous oxygen saturation on post arrest patients.

Read the detailed description

Central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO₂) is a very important measurement which can be easily taken in a critical care environment by both medical and nursing staff. It provides an understanding of the patient's oxygen delivery, oxygen consumption and cardiac output. It has a key role within early goal-directed therapy and has been shown to decrease mortality when taken and analysed appropriately. (Central venous oxygen saturation: analysis, clinical use and effects on mortality,2013) Venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) measures the blood's oxygen content returning to the right side of the heart after perfusing the entire body. When the oxygen supply is insufficient to meet the metabolic demands of the tissues, an abnormal SvO2 ensues and reflects an inadequacy in systemic oxygenation. SvO2 is, therefore, dependent on oxygen delivery and oxygen extraction. Venous oximetry is used in specific clinical settings of hemodynamic instability, such as in critical illnesses, perioperative periods of major surgeries, heart failure, sepsis andd post arrest patients. The venous blood in the pulmonary artery represents oxygen extraction in the whole body and is called mixed venous oxygen saturation (SmvO2). It was measured using a pulmonary artery catheter (PAC). A second, less invasive method of measuring SvO2 is via a central venous catheter (CVC) positioned in the superior vena cava and is called the central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2).

Central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO(2)) is suggested to reflect the adequacy of oxygen delivery, and the main objective of the present study was to determine whether ScvO(2) is associated with outcome in haemodynamically stabilized post arrest patients predicting mortality and outcome based on central venous oxygen saturation

What is being measured

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

  1. central venous oxygen saturation impact on prognosis of post arrest patients

    evaluating prognostic impact of oxygen saturation extracted from a central venous line blood sample on post arrest patients sample from (internal jagular vein) more or less than 50% oxygen saturation on prognosis of post arrest patients and recurrent arrests and overall improvement and time of expected and full recovery

    Measured: time of follow up expected from time of successful ROSC until full improvement or recurrent arrest and death From date of cardiac arrest until date of first documented improvement or date of death due to any cause whichever came first assessed up in 2 mo

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Post Arrest Patients, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 3 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Aug 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 Egypt. 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

central venous oxygen saturation impact on prognosis of post arrest patients (time frame: time of follow up expected from time of successful ROSC until full improvement or recurrent arrest and death From date of cardiac arrest until date of first documented improvement or date of death due to any cause whichever came first assessed up in 2 mo). 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 NCT07107776, which also lists 3 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 7 Aug 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
