BEAT-SHOCK (Basel Evaluation of Acute Therapy in Cardiogenic SHOCK) Registry

This regulation defines the purpose, the operational processes, and the organization of the registry BEAT-SHOCK (Basel Evaluation of Acute Therapy in cardiogenic SHOCK). It describes the requirements for collecting, storing, processing, managing and sharing health-related registry data.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Observational

Enrollment (Estimated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
8000

Contacts and Locations

This section provides the contact details for those conducting the study, and information on where this study is being conducted.

Study Contact

Study Contact

The name and contact information for the person who can answer enrollment questions for a clinical study. Each location where the study is being conducted may also have a specific contact, who may be better able to answer those questions.

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

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Adult patients who are treated at the University Hospital Basel and are diagnosed with cardiogenic shock, irrespective of underlying etiology or therapeutic strategy. The registry includes a wide range of cardiogenic shock etiologies, including:

  • Myocardial infarction (MI)
  • Fulminant myocarditis
  • Acute decompensated heart failure
  • Severe valvular disease
  • Post-cardiotomy or perioperative cardiogenic shock

Description

  • Patients admitted with cardiogenic shock to the University hospital Basel (diagnosis at the time of admission) or development of cardiogenic shock during the hospital stay
  • Age ≥18 years
  • Provision of written ICF
  • Clinical diagnosis of cardiogenic shock.
  • impaired organ perfusion due to primary cardiac dysfunction,
  • persistent systolic blood pressure (SBP) <90 mmHg for ≥30 minutes, or the need for vasopressors, inotropes, or mechanical circulatory support (MCS) to maintain adequate perfusion and
  • evidence of systemic hypoperfusion with arterial lactate ≥2 mmol/L or venous lactate ≥3 mmol/l and ≥1 of the following:
  • Cold or clammy extremities
  • Altered mental status
  • Reduced urine output
  • Signs of volume overload or congestion (on clinical exam, imaging, or invasive monitoring)
  • Patients with normotensive cardiogenic shock (SBP ≥90 mmHg without vasopressors or MCS) may also be included if clear signs of hypoperfusion (arterial lactate ≥2 mmol/L or venous lactate ≥3 mmol/l) and cardiac dysfunction are present and alternative causes are excluded

Exclusion criteria:

  • Age <18 years
  • Refusal to provide informed consent by the patient or their legally authorized representative

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
In-Hospital all-cause mortality occurring before discharge from the participating study centre
Time Frame: 10 years
In-hospital all-cause mortality is defined as death occurring before discharge from the participating study centre. Deaths occurring after transfer to an external hospital are not counted as in-hospital deaths, but are captured through follow-up for 30-day and 90-day mortality.
10 years

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
30-day and 90-day all-cause Mortality
Time Frame: 30, 90 days
30-day and 90-day all-cause mortality occuring after discharge from the participating study centre.
30, 90 days
Need for organ support at any time during hospitalization
Time Frame: 30, 60, 360 days
The need for organ support at any time during hospitalization (including renal replacement therapy, mechanical circulation support irrespective of type, and vasoactive or inotropic therapy)
30, 60, 360 days
Acute kidney injury (AKI) within 36 hours after index diagnosis of cardiogenic shock/index presentation
Time Frame: Within 36 hours after index diagnosis of cardiogenic shock/ index presentation.
Occurence of AKI (defined as an increase in serum creatinine of at least 26 µmol/L (0.3 mg/dL)
Within 36 hours after index diagnosis of cardiogenic shock/ index presentation.

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
October 1, 2025

Primary Completion (Estimated)

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.
October 1, 2035

Study Completion (Estimated)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
