Trial summary

Advances in flow cytometry techniques have led to a better understanding of platelet phenotypes and have revealed the existence of four major platelet populations with distinct functional properties (native, proaggregating, procoagulating, or apoptotic). Read more about this study

About this study

Advances in flow cytometry techniques have led to a better understanding of platelet phenotypes and have revealed the existence of four major platelet populations with distinct functional properties (native, proaggregating, procoagulating, or apoptotic). These phenotypes have a significant impact on the hemostatic capacity of blood platelets, and a proportional change in these populations during ECMO treatment could, at least in part, contribute to the observed complications.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportional Changes in the Different Platelet Populations (native, proaggregating, procoagulant, or apoptotic)

    Proportional Changes in the Different Platelet Populations (native, proaggregating, procoagulant, or apoptotic) on Days 1, 3, and 7 after the initiation of ECMO treatment.

    Measured: Days 1, 3, and 7 after the initiation of ECMO treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Failure and Respiratory Failure, run by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France 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 2 inclusion and 3 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jan 2026. 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?

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 Charles TACQUARD, MD, PhD (33.3.69.55.16.08, charlesambroise.tacquard@chru-strasbourg.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportional Changes in the Different Platelet Populations (native, proaggregating, procoagulant, or apoptotic) (time frame: Days 1, 3, and 7 after the initiation of ECMO treatment.). 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 12 Jan 2026.
