EtCO2 for Monitoring & Predicting Severity of DKA in Pediatric Emergency,

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Metabolic acidosis is one of the important and life-threatening pathophysiological changes in DKA and its monitoring is essential. It is known that the level of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the blood is correlating with the degree of metabolic acidosis. The CO2 level can be measured via the exhaled air by nasal cannula capnography (EtCO2) which is currently utilized to monitor the patient ventilation in many situations. Our primary objective is to study the degree of correlation between continuous EtCO2 monitoring and the severity of metabolic acidosis in blood gas measurement in patients with diabetic keto-acidosis (DKA). Secondary objectives are: ability of EtCO2 in ruling in or out DKA; discriminating the different severity grades of DKA. It is a cross-sectional, observational, prospective cohort study in convenience sample of children presenting with clinical manifestations consistent with DKA. Will be conducted in pediatric Emergency Center, Hamad General Hospital. Will include all DKA patients and excluding any condition or medication that affect the acid-base status.

Clinical Trial Description

The study will be conducted in pediatric emergency center, Hamad General Hospital, a recognized academic institution, in Doha, Qatar. The DKA was defined as: hyperglycemia (blood glucose >11 mmol/L or 200 mg/dL), venous pH <7.3 and/ or bicarbonate <15 mmol/L, and the association with, ketonemia, and ketonuria. The severity of DKA is categorized as mild (venous pH <7.3 or bicarbonate <15 mmol/L), moderate (venous pH <7.2 or bicarbonate < 10 mmol/L) and severe (venous pH < 7.1 or bicarbonate <5 mmol/L). Eligible patients are all children with already known or newly diagnosed diabetics, regardless weather has been enrolled in previous encounter or not. The patients with the following criteria are excluded: older than 14 years of age, airway obstruction, chest infection, complex congenital heart disease, Congestive heart failure, central or peripheral neurological disorders, hyper/hypothermia, and sever pain. Physicians and nurses, and research assistance staff will be trained in the use of nasal capnography including the proper size, connection and wave forms shapes and its interpretation. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
