Systematic Evaluation by an Intensivist of Hematological Malignancy Patients Presenting With Acute Respiratory or Hemodynamic Failure (CAREHEMA)

November 2, 2022 updated by: University Hospital, Grenoble

Systematic Evaluation by an Intensivist of Hematological Malignancy Patients Presenting With Acute Respiratory or Hemodynamic Failure: Impact on Prognosis: A Monocentric Observational Before-after Study

Over the last two decades, the number of patients with hematological malignancies (HMs) admitted to the ICU increased and their mortality has dropped sharply. Patients with HMs increasingly require admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) for life-threatening events related to the malignancy and/or treatments, with immunosuppression being a major contributor. Whether the increase in ICU admissions is related to increased referrals by hematologists and/or to increased admissions by intensivists is unknown. The criteria used for ICU referral and admission decisions have not been extensively evaluated. Finally, the links between admission policies and treatment-limitation decisions are unclear, but ICUs with broad admission policies may change the treatment goals based on the response to several days of full-code management.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of a systematic evaluation by an intensivist of HMs patients presenting with acute respiratory and/or hemodynamic failure.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

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.

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.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
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.

"Before phase"
Retrospective study of ICU admissions of hematology patients for respiratory and hemodynamic reasons Time period: January 2012 to March 2017
"After Phase": Systematic evaluation by an intensivist

Corresponding to the period after the implementation of a systematic intensivist evaluation Daily screening of systolic blood pressure, oxygen saturation and oxygen requirements of all patients hospitalized in hematology wards. Systematic evaluation of any patient presenting the inclusion criteria by an intensivist and collegial care planning.

Time period: From March 2017 to end of study
Other: Systematic evaluation by an intensivist
implementation of a standardized procedure for patient care in ICU

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
delta Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score
Time Frame: up to 72 hours

difference between the Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment score between 48h and 72h after ICU admission and the SOFA score during the first 24h.

SOFA score ranges from 0 to 20 delta SOFA= SOFA day 3 - SOFA day1
up to 72 hours

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
