A Prospective Study of Early Mechanical Stabilization and Bleeding in Disruption of the Pelvic Ring (EMS-BIND)

August 29, 2022 updated by: Major Extremity Trauma Research Consortium
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of earlier placement of Circumferential Pelvic Compression (CPC) on resuscitative measures required for life-threatening pelvic ring injuries and to guide the development of future efficacy trials of three advanced resuscitation techniques (surgical pelvic packing, angioembolization, REBOA).

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

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 to 64 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients with severe pelvic ring disruptions

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient age between 18 and 64 years, inclusive;
  • Severe blunt or blast traumatic injury;
  • Young-Burgess APC-2 and 3, LC-3, vertical shear, and combined mechanism of injury (CMI) (Tile B and C patterns; OTA codes 61-B and 61-C);
  • Circumferential pelvic compression (CPC) device used at any time within 24 hours of injury.
  • Patient must speak either English or Spanish

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Arrival to hospital of definitive care more than 6 hours after injury;
  • Ballistic pelvic injury, other than from a blast mechanism;
  • Time of CPC placement not recorded;
  • Time of injury and time of EMS dispatch unknown;
  • Use of medical anti-shock trousers (MAST);
  • Confirmed dead on arrival to hospital

Design Details

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
Blood products
Time Frame: 24 hours
We will document the volume of any blood products given within the first 24 hours following injury
24 hours
Pelvic stabilization and resuscitative techniques
Time Frame: 24 hours
We will document any techniques used to stabilize and/or resuscitate the pelvic injury within the first 24 hours
24 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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Blood loss
Time Frame: 24 hours
Total blood volume loss will be calculated within the first 24 hours following injury
24 hours
Ventilator days
Time Frame: 24 hours
Number of days that patient spends on a ventilator will be documented
24 hours
ICU days
Time Frame: 24 hours
Number of days spent in the ICU will be documented
24 hours
Length of hospital stay
Time Frame: 24 hours
Number of days spent in the hospital will be documented
24 hours
GCS (Glascow Coma Score)
Time Frame: 24 hours
The GCS is a neurological scale to assess for brain injury. The score is composed of three parts: eyes, verbal and motor. Each component has a different scale. Eyes (1-4), verbal (1-5) and motor (1-6). The sum of all three components result in the overall GCS score (3-15). The higher the score, the less likelihood of brain injury
24 hours

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mortality
Time Frame: 1 month
Any deaths that occur between index hospitalization and 30 days post-injury will be documented
1 month

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
