Active clinical trials for "Shock, Cardiogenic"

Because of dual oxygenation and oxygenator performance (PO2 postoxygenator up to 500 mmHg), hyperoxemia (PaO2 > 150 mmHg) is frequent in veino-arterial ECMO, especially in the lower part of the body, which is mainly oxygenated by ECMO. By enhancing oxygen free radicals' production, hyperoxemia might favor gut, kidney and liver dysfunction. We hypothesize that targeting an extracorporeal normoxemia (i.e. PO2 postoxygenator between 100 and 150 mmHg) will decrease gut, kidney and liver dysfunctions, compared to a liberal extracorporeal oxygenation.

In the ECMOsorb study the impact of a veno-arterial -ECMO in combination with an extracorporeal cytokine hemadsorption system in critically ill patients with cardiogenic shock is to be examined

Extracorporeal veno-arterial membrane oxygenation" (ECMO-VA), are used to manage refractory cardiogenic shocks by replacing the failed "heart-lung" block. The Extracorporeal Life Support Organisation guidelines considers that the effectiveness of these techniques must be evaluated on the adequacy of tissue perfusion biomarker, of which is O2 saturation of venous blood found in the pulmonary artery using a Swan-Ganz catheter (SVO2) or in the superior vena cava/right atrium using a central venous catheter (ScVO2). During ECMO support, it can be also measured directly in the venous ECMO cannula (SmVO2). However, due to the difference in tips locations of the venous cannula of ECMO-VA, the central venous catheter and the Swan-Ganz catheter, and rheological issues, the SmVO2, SVO2 and ScVO2 values obtained may be different. Further we hypothesised that the level of admission flow may also affect the correlation between these different variables. The aim of this experimental study is to investigate the concordance of the saturation of venous blood collected from these 3 measurement sites. The primary objectives is to compare the concordance of ScVO2 and the SmVO2, the two more easily and systematically available variables The secondary objectives were : to evaluate the concordance of the 3 variables describing oxygen saturation to analyse the primary objectives during prespecified and calibrated flow changes analyse the association between these 3 variables with prognosis variables (Perfusion index, lactatemia, CO2 veno-arterial differences, SOFA score, SAPS II, successful weaning from the ECMO) analyse in an ancilary study the concordance between SmVO2 measured using blood sample and the value obtained using a continuous monitoring of SVO2 through the circuit.

Prospective, monocentric open-label observational study for the assessment of acute hemodynamic effects following implantation of the IMPELLA CP cardiac support device

The primary objective of the PACCS trial is to assess if early invasive hemodynamic assessment and ongoing management with a PAC in patients with cardiogenic shock due to acutely decompensated heart failure (AHDF-CS) is associated with lower in-hospital mortality risk compared to the current standard of care with no or delayed PAC assessment.

The ULYSS study is a randomized, multicenter, interventional and prospective open-label clinical trial. It aims to evaluate the efficacy of the addition of an early IMPELLA CP support on top of optimal medical therapy and culprit lesion PCI compared to optimal medical care and culprit PCI in patients with an ACS complicated by a CS. A transthoracic echography is required to exclude some non-inclusion criteria as soon as possible and before randomization. Randomization will be performed after an informed consent is signed by the patient, a family member if he is unable to consent or thanks to the emergent consent procedure if all inclusion criteria are met and there are no non-inclusion criteria. A computer-generated randomization list will be drawn-up using a permuted block design (stratified on center). Each center will have a specific list. Randomization 1:1 to one of the 2 groups In all patients, emergent PCI of the culprit lesion will be performed. Control group: patients will receive IV inotropes associated or not with vasopressors according to the attached protocol and based on the current guidelines (annex 1) (2, 4) in addition to emergent culprit lesion PCI Experimental group: patients will receive IMPELLA CP before PCI on top of conventional therapy based on the same protocol as the control group and emergent culprit PCI

This is a pilot, multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-part safety and efficacy study. Subjects will consist of patients hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure with persistent hypotension.

Pilot Prospective Randomized Unblinded Pragmatic Trial of Pulmonary Artery Hemodynamic Monitoring Following Hospitalization for Cardiogenic Shock

Patients undergoing open heart surgery are at risk of suffering damage to the heart, brain and kidneys. This study is designed as a 2-by-2 randomized clinical trial with the purpose of investigating the organ protective effects of the glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonist Exenatide versus placebo and restrictive versus liberal oxygenation during weaning from cardio-pulmonary bypass.

The use of venoarterial-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(VA-ECMO) was associated with lower in-hospital mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock. However, VA-ECMO has a deleterious effect for hemodynamics. It can increase left ventricular end-diastolic pressure(LVEDP), followed by left ventricular dilatation, abnormal opening of aortic valve and jeopardizes of myocardial recovery. Therefore, several methods have been used to reduce LVEDP. Among these, left atrial septostomy is effective, but less invasive than surgical left ventricular unloading. However, there is few data regarding this issue. Therefore, the investigators will evaluate the effect of routine, early left atrial septostomy in patients with VA-ECMO for the treatment of cardiogenic shock.
