Correlation Between Pressure Differences and Micro-vascularization Changes in Bedridden Paraplegic Patient (VASCIP)

December 8, 2021 updated by: University Hospital, Montpellier
Paraplegic patients have defective wound healing for sore below the level of spinal lesion. Defect of vascularization of the healing zone certainly participate to this effect. Therefore, this study want to measure, in a clinical settings, the interface pressure (e.g. the pressure between the patient body and the surface he/she is lying on) to assess the correlation between mechanical stress in term of pressure applied over time and tissue oxygenation which represent micro-vascular function. The aim of this clinical trial is to correlate the variations of pressure intensities and changes in micro-vascularization. The measure are recorded when paraplegic patient came into the hospital for pressure ulcer related surgery. The patient is laying on his/her mattress on top of a flexible pressure mapping device. The micro-vascularization parameters are measured at the area displaying the peak pressure a few minutes after the beginning of the pressure interface recording and one hour later at the same area. The data generated during this monocentric study will help to achieve a better understanding of the relation between pressure and micro-vascularization. In the mid term, it will provide a better and more patient adapted pressure ulcer prevention.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
OTHER: Single arm
Measurement of interface pressure and Measurement of micro-vascularization related parameters
Other: Measurement of interface pressure
A capacitive pressure mapping device (XSensor) is set up on the patient air mattress bed. It records the interface pressure on the whole patient body with one frame every second during one hour. Then the file is saved and the pressure mapping device is removed from the patient hospital bedroom.
Other: Measurement of micro-vascularization related parameters
A medical device called O2C, measuring micro-vascularization related parameters (oxygen saturation, hemoglobin quantity and blood flow) is used. The probe (= an optic fibre) is set up lightly on the patient skin or on a transparent adhesive for 1 minute. The median value of the local micro-vascularization parameters are saved on the O2C interface. The location of the measurement is chosen using the pressure mapping device to locate peak pressure area. Then the O2C is removed from the patient hospital bedroom.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Measure of the pressure intensity in one area
Time Frame: Measurements are done the same date as the inclusion, during the patient hospitalization for his/her pressure ulcer related surgery.
Pressure intensity is recorded using a mapping pressure device (XSensor), set up on the patient hospital bed. Hemoglobin quantity is measured the same day, at a precise area identified on the pressure mapping device (peak pressure), using the O2C - a micro-vascularization device. All measure are non-invasive.
Measurements are done the same date as the inclusion, during the patient hospitalization for his/her pressure ulcer related surgery.
Measure of the hemoglobin quantity in the same area
Time Frame: Measurements are done the same date as the inclusion, during the patient hospitalization for his/her pressure ulcer related surgery.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description

Measure of other micro-vascularization related parameters (such as the oxygen saturation and the blood flow) recorded at the same area.
Time Frame: Measurements are done the same date as the inclusion, during the patient hospitalization for his/her pressure ulcer related surgery.
