Prognostic Role of LA Strain in Acute Myocardial Infarction

CMR-MI
Start date: September 2, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This is a single-center retrospective observational study in which we consecutively selected patients diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction from September 2019 to March 2024 at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University. Inclusion criteria: 1. CMR was completed during all hospitalizations; 2. complete clinical data; 3. received continuous cardiac monitoring during hospitalization. Exclusion criteria: 1. unclear or non-compliant CMR images; 2. previous history of myocardial infarction; 3. malignant tumors diseases. Dedicated cardiovascular imaging software CVI42 (cvi42® version 5.13.5, Circle Cardiovascular Imaging, Canada) was used for image analysis. LA strain was obtained by cardiac MRI feature tracking. Patient prognosis was obtained through chart notes and telephone follow-up. Major events included atrial fibrillation, ischemic stroke, and all-cause mortality.

NCT ID: NCT06339229 Completed - Surgery Clinical Trials

Postoperative New-onset Proteinuria and Adverse Outcomes.

Start date: January 1, 2000
Phase:
Study type: Observational

We aimed to assess the association between postoperative new-onset proteinuria, all-cause mortality, and decline in kidney function in Chinese people who underwent surgery. The exposure variable was the dipstick proteinuria values from the initial postoperative urinalysis within 30 days after surgery, categorized as negative, trace, 1+, and ≥2+. The primary outcome was 30-day mortality. The secondary outcomes included 1-year mortality and composite kidney outcome assessed using the postoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate.

NCT ID: NCT06330883 Completed - COVID-19 Clinical Trials

Determining the Prevalence of Frailty and Evaluating Its Relationship With Mortality.

Start date: January 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Covid-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit of Selcuk University Hospital were included in the study. Clinical frailty score was given during admission to the intensive care unit. Demographic data, laboratory data, radiological imaging and vital signs of the patients were recorded. Treatment and patient positions were recorded during the intensive care follow-up of the patients. Mortality status of the patients 6 months after admission to the ICU was recorded.

NCT ID: NCT06256133 Completed - Mortality Clinical Trials

Impact of Anesthesia-related Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Components on Mortality After Pancreaticoduodenectomy

Start date: March 1, 2015
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), one of the most complex and invasive abdominal surgeries, is associated with long length of stay (LOS) and high morbidity and mortality rates. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is gaining popularity because it reduces surgical stress and promotes physiological stability through standardized perioperative care, thereby improving the recovery process and outcomes after surgery. ERAS is a comprehensive approach to perioperative care that involves the collaboration of multiple departments. Within the ERAS program, components primarily implemented by the anesthesiology department include preoperative carbohydrate loading, maintenance of near-zero fluid balance, and multimodal analgesic management, such as midthoracic epidural block. However, they may be underutilized for several reasons, such as deviation from conventional methods (e.g., preoperative carbohydrate loading) or the highly demanding nature of the procedures, which require significant human resources, specialized equipment, and time (e.g., thoracic epidural or transverse abdominis block). Several randomized trials involving patients undergoing PD have reported that the implementation of ERAS has provided high-level evidence on a safer and quicker recovery, with decreased morbidity rates and shorter LOS than traditional care. Furthermore, a recent study on colorectal surgery reported that the ERAS program may improve not only short-term but also long-term oncological outcomes. However, there is a paucity of research investigating the effects of ERAS on mortality after PD. Furthermore, the impact of anesthesiology-related components within the ERAS pathway has not been extensively studied. A previously published randomized controlled trial from our institution showed that the outcomes after applying pre- and postoperative ERAS protocols without anesthesiology-related components (Surg-ERAS) were comparable to those of the conventional protocol. This study aimed to compare the short- and long-term mortality rates among patients undergoing PD by examining the same cohort from a previous study, including the conventional (Non-ERAS) and Surg-ERAS groups, in addition to anesthesia fully implementing ERAS programs (ANS-Surg-ERAS group). Moreover, LOS; inflammation parameters, such as neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CAR); morbidity rate, reoperation rate, and readmission rate were compared among the three groups.

NCT ID: NCT06115525 Completed - Malnutrition Clinical Trials

Isolated or Combined Use of NUTRIC Score and NRS-2002 to Predict Mortality in the Intensive Care Unit

Start date: February 10, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The objective of this investigation was to assess the predictive capacity of the NUTRIC Score and NRS-2002, separately or combined, in forecasting hospital, 28-day and 3-month mortality in patients with respiratory failure admitted to the intensive care unit.

NCT ID: NCT06051526 Completed - Critical Illness Clinical Trials

The African Critical Illness Outcomes Study

ACIOS
Start date: September 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

In Africa, the prevalence of critical illness is likely to be higher due to a greater burden of disease, and the associated mortality higher due to limited resources. This is a prospective, observational study to rapidly establish the prevalence of critical illness in in-hospital adult patients in Africa, and the resources available to provide essential critical care (care that should be available to every patient in the world) and factors associated with mortality. Rapid dissemination of these findings may help mitigate mortality from critical illness in Africa. These points provide the rationale for the African Critical Illness Outcomes Study.

NCT ID: NCT06043115 Completed - COVID-19 Pneumonia Clinical Trials

Factors Affecting Mortality in Covid-19 Disease

Start date: May 11, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19), defined by the reporting of pneumonia cases of unknown etiology at the end of 2019 in Wuhan, China, has spread worldwide, causing millions of deaths. Despite the fact that more than two years have passed since the struggle against the disease it continues to be an important public health problem.The increasing number of critically ill patients with this pandemic caused a great demand for intensive care units (ICU), and ICU capacity and staff had to be rapidly expanded in many countries. Similarly, in various periods of the pandemic in Turkey, the capacity of many ICUs had to be increased. The rates of admission to the ICU and death rates differed greatly from center to center due to various factors such as ICU bed capacity and the duration of access to the ICU, patient characteristics, and differences in the treatments applied. Determining the factors that may be associated with mortality is important in terms of improving the ICU follow-up of patients with COVID-19 and guiding their treatment.There is limited information about the characteristics and mortality of Turkish patients with COVID-19 in the ICU. The aim of this study is to determine the demographic, clinical and laboratory characteristics and the factors affecting ICU mortality in COVID-19 patients followed in Akdeniz University Medical Faculty Hospital since the beginning of the pandemic.

NCT ID: NCT05905042 Completed - Mortality Clinical Trials

Follow-up of Recovery Condition in Survivors of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Start date: September 2014
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Hope to realize the recovery condition of ARDS survivors in Taiwan. It would be helpful not only to design the proper rehabilitation program but also to be a useful reference for the poor recovery patients to take hospice care if indicated.

NCT ID: NCT05580016 Completed - Abdominal Pain Clinical Trials

Prognostic Value of Soluble Urokinase Plasminogen Activation Receptor (SUPAR) to Rule Out Complications in Patients Admitted in Emergency Department for Acute Abdominal Pain.

GRADIENT
Start date: January 9, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Soluble Urokinase Plasminogen Activation Receptor (SUPAR) is a validated biomarker with applications in the study of inflammation and infection. Elevated levels of SUPAR have recently been linked to a higher mortality in patients suffering from undifferentiated sepsis, pneumonia, and more recently, COVID-19 infection. Large randomized controlled trials have been conducted on patients admitted to the emergency department (ER), regardless of the reason for admittance. These studies have stratified risk based on three cutoffs at initial measurement: - Low risk : < 3 ng/mL - Intermediate risk : entre 3 et 6 ng/mL - High risk : > 6 ng/mL Low levels of SUPAR are associated with low risk of mortality in the short and long term in patients presenting to the ED, no matter the reason for admittance. Risk stratification could be an added decision-making tool for clinicians to comfort hospital discharge. To the best of our knowledge, there is no available data on the added value of SUPAR for predicting mortality in abdominal sepsis and abdominal pain. Abdominal pain is responsible for 10 to 30 % of ER admissions. Consequently, abdominal pain is then responsible for roughly 10 % of admissions into medical and surgical wards. Mortality varies depending on patient factors. Mortality is usually stratified on age. In patients under 50 years of age, it is near 8%, but it reaches 19 % in patients over 50. Diagnostic accuracy also decreases drastically with age, reaching approximately 30 % patients over 75. Taking this into account, integrating a measure of SUPAR levels into the current standard of care could stratify the risk of complications in patients admitted to the ER with abdominal pain.

NCT ID: NCT05573659 Completed - Mortality Clinical Trials

Capillary Refill Time Calculated With a Video-assisted Method Has a Better Reproducibility Than Visual Method in Critically Ill Patients

EVITREC
Start date: October 6, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Capillary refill time is the time it takes for the skin to regain its initial colour after moderate pressure. It is usually performed on the patient index finger, middle finger or ring finger with the examiner's thumb and index finger for five seconds, three measurements having to be averaged. Capillary refill time has a dependent operator character, but it has been shown to be accurately correlated with 14-day mortality in septic shock, hospitalisation need in pediatric population. The purpose of this project is to show that capillary refill time obtained by a video-assisted method has a better inter- and intra-observer reproducibility than capillary refill time obtained by a visual method.
