Micronutrient Levels & Nutritional Status in Critical Illness

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Rationale: A significant proportion of patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is unable to fully recover, even when the initial cause of their illness has been treated. Inadequate dietary intake prior to admission and during the recovery phase may leave patients in a frail physical state, limiting rehabilitation potential. Commonly used methods to assess nutritional intake and nutritional status are highly impacted by various disease-related confounders and reporting bias. We hypothesise that a combined assessment of biomarkers in plasma and urine may provide a more accurate overview of nutritional status at ICU-admission. Objective: Main: Assess nutrition-related biomarkers in plasma and urine samples at ICU admission Secondary: Identify the number of micronutrient deficiencies at ICU admission Compare biomarker profile and dietary intake of short and long-stay ICU patients at baseline Compare subjective dietary intake, nutritional status and muscle thickness between patients with and without micronutrient deficiencies at baseline Study design: Observational study Study population: Adult patients admitted to the ICU. Two groups will be recruited: patients with a short length of stay (<48 hours) and patients with a longer length of stay (≥48 hours). Main study parameters: Biomarker status in blood and urine at ICU admission. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: In addition to standard care ICU treatment, the following measurements will be performed: - Within 24 hours after admission blood and urine samples will be collected from existing venous line and urinary catheter - Within 72 hours an ultrasound measurement of the upper leg will be performed. - During ICU stay, when the patient is capable to do so, they will be asked to complete a retrospective dietary intake assessment. The risks and negative effects of these tests are limited. However, this study asks for a time investment and physical and mental effort of the patients.

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.
