Stopping Cardiovascular Treatments and Mortality in a MICU (TRAM)

Impact on Mortality of Cardiovascular Treatments Interruption in a Medical Intensive Care Unit

Cardiovascular treatments should not be interrupted following hospital admission, in order to decrease patients' morbidity. However, following ICU admission, such treatments are frequently interrupted and/or modified. The question of the study is to investigate wether such treatment interruption might be responsible for prognosis modifications.

Study Overview

• Status: Unknown
• Conditions: Cardiovascular Diseases; Critical Care; Outcome, Fatal; Medication
• Intervention / Treatment: Other: Observation

Detailed Description

Cardiovascular treatments should not be interrupted following hospital admission, in order to decrease patients' morbidity. However, following ICU admission, such treatments are frequently interrupted and/or modified.

Few studies have investigated the outcome impact of medications interruption and/or modifications following hospital admission. We did consider that it might be interesting to study whether treatment continuation, interruption, and/or re-introduction following ICU admission may modify patients' outcome either in the ICU or following hospital discharge (at 3,6 and 12 months).
