Continuous Jugular Venous Oxygen Saturation (SjO2) Measurement After Cardiac Arrest
{ "Continuous Jugular Venous Oxygen Saturation (SjO2) Measurement After Cardiac Arrest", "This observational study is looking at how well a device called the PediaSat Oximetry Catheter measures oxygen levels in the blood leaving the brain (jugular venous oxygen saturation or SjO2) in adults who have been resuscitated from cardiac arrest and remain in a coma. The study will compare continuous measurements from the PediaSat Oximetry Catheter with intermittent measurements from the same catheter. This comparison will help doctors understand if continuous monitoring is accurate. You may be able to join if you are an adult (18 years or older) who has experienced cardiac arrest, been successfully resuscitated, and remain comatose. The study aims to enroll 25 participants. The current status of the study is unclear.", "design": "This is an observational study with a planned enrollment of 25 participants. It is not specified if it is randomized or blinded.", "commitments": "If you participate, you will have continuous SjO2 monitoring with the PediaSat Oximetry Catheter for 72 hours. You will also have intermittent SjO2 measurements taken every 4-6 hours for 72 hours.", "compensation": "Not stated in the trial record.", "follow_up": "Measurements will be taken from hospital presentation to 72 hours after admission.", }

What this trial measures
- Bias and percent error of continuous SjO2 measurements compared to intermittent SjO2 measurements, both obtained with the PediaSat Oximetry CatheterFrom hospital presentation to 72 hours after admission
The accuracy of SjO2 measurement with the PediaSat Oximetry Catheter will be determined by comparing the SjO2 measurements obtained from the study catheter with the gold standard of SjO2 measured on jugular venous blood simultaneously withdrawn from the catheter and analyzed on a blood gas machine. Each participant will have \~10-15 paired SjO2 measurements. The Bland-Altman method for assessing agreement between two methods of clinical measurement with multiple observations per participant will be utilized to calculate the bias between the mean differences of the continuous and intermittent techniques and the percent error of the continuous technique. Based on established accuracy requirements for similar continuous in-vivo measurements in critical care, a bias of \<= ± 5 and a percent error of \<= 30 will be considered successful.
