NCT04760977
Up to today, inadequate evidences and knowledge exist about the best prehospital management of hypotensive trauma patients and its clinical consequence on the in-hospital recovery and mortality. Also new emerging therapies such as prehospital blood transfusion and REBOA (resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta) are lacking strong evidences in, eventually, reducing hospital mortality and improving outcomes. Moreover, prehospital emergency medicine is throughout Italy an heterogeneous system that has no unique standard operating procedures and, even among HEMS (helicopter emergency medical service), management and therapies on complex trauma patients may vary upon local policies. With this study we aim to enroll hypotensive trauma patients and study factors of prehospital rescue that can be associated with in-hospital mortality and recovery, eventually even with hospital outcome. For each patients data as demographic, kind of trauma (mechanism, injury scores), therapies and maneuvers will be recorded and then analyzed in comparison with in-hospital data such as need for transfusion, ABG parameters, length of stay (in-ward and ICU), need of therapies like invasive ventilation and renal replacement therapy, recovery and outcome
NCT03701646
Specific aim 1: The specific aim of this study is to compare cardiac output measurements as well as cardiac index, and stroke volume obtained via thermodilution during a cardiac catheterization with data obtained by the ClearSight cardiac output monitoring system. Specific aim 2: To compare arterial blood pressure measurements obtained by arterial line with arterial waveform measurements obtained by the ClearSight System. The hypothesis is: Cardiac output measurements or arterial blood pressure measurements taken non-invasively with the ClearSight system in pediatric patients who are either undergoing cardiac catheterization or have an arterial line will correlate with cardiac output measurements taken by pulmonary artery catheter thermodilution or arterial pressures measured by an arterial line.

The current standard of catecholamine vasopressor management of perioperative hypotension in kidney transplant patients carries significant risks and falls short in many ways. Currently, there is an absence in the scientific literature and research describing the hemodynamic effectiveness and safety of novel pharmacologic agents such as angiotensin II (Giapreza - Ang II) in perioperative kidney transplant patients. Phase 3 registration trials have demonstrated the superior safety and efficacy of Ang II (Giapreza) in distributive shock patients compared to traditional vasopressor agents and the novel mechanism of action may provide additional protection in renal transplant patients. The pilot study entails giving informed and consenting kidney transplant recipients Ang II (Giapreza) as their first vasopressor if the need for vasopressors emerge either intraoperatively or postoperatively in kidney transplant recipients. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and hemodynamic effects of Ang II (Giapreza) in the renal transplant population.
NCT04269382
The present study was designed to assess, in a population of patients admitted to the intensive care unit and already carrying an indwelling arterial catheter, the ability of combined continuous (ClearSight™) and intermittent (automatic cuff) non-invasive monitoring to detect low mean BP (\<65mmHg). The intra-arterial measurement will be the reference measurement. As secondary objectives, the investigators will assess the ability of combined continuous (ClearSight™) and intermittent (automatic cuff) non-invasive monitoring to detect stage 2 hypertension, and to detect changes in BP during a cardiovascular intervention (as clinically indicated but not imposed by the study protocol). Additionally, the accuracy of both devices against the current international standard (ISO standard) will be assessed.
NCT03407287
The aim of this study is to determine the effects of fluid alternations, hemodynamic changes, mechanical ventilation, pharmacologic agents, positional changes, and comorbidities on the Peripheral Intravenous waveform Analysis (PIVA) signal.
NCT02070276
Spinal anesthesia is still the regional anesthesia technique most widely employed in everyday clinical practice. The most feared and common of its well known side effects consist in an abrupt reduction of systemic vascular resistances, with consequence risk of systemic hypotension. To prevent this potentially severe complication, an adequate correction of patients' volume status through a preventive administration of fluids is widely used. However this volume repletion is commonly accomplished on an empirical basis, without having a real insight of patient hemodynamic status, carrying the risk of possible volume overload. Aim of the study is to test the clinical impact of two simple, non-invasive methods to guide volemic repletion before spinal anesthesia on the reduction of significant hypotension rate, compared to empirical fluid administration.
