Secondary endpoints

  • {"endpoint_text":"- Overall survival within 28 days\n- Ventricular assist device or/and heart transplant on day 28\n- Number of ECMO-free days on day 14 and day 28\n- Number of inotropes-free days on day 14 and day 28\n- Number of ICU-free days on day 28\n- Number of ventilation-free days on day 14 and day 28\n- Delirium-free days (evaluated with Confusion Assessment Method for the ICU [CAM-ICU]) on day 14 and day 28\n- Daily morphine equivalent dose during mechanical ventilation until day 14\n- Daily propofol, and midazolam doses during mechanical ventilation until day 14\n- Daily propofol or midazolam bolus needed to achieve the prescribed sedation range until day 14\n- Daily neuroleptics need until day 14\n- Daily clonidine needs until day 14\n- Daily dexmedetomidine need until day 14\n- Rate of side effects possibly linked to ineffective sedation (self-extubation, accidental ECMO decannulation, catheter withdrawal, etc.)\n- Incidence of drugs side effects (refractory hypertension, malignant hyperthermia)\n- Primary and secondary endpoints in predefined subgroups: patients with pre-ECMO cardiac arrest, and patients with acute myocardial infarction.","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Endpoints include timepoint-specific measures (day 14 and day 28) and standard assessments: overall survival at 28 days; device/transplant status at day 28; ECMO-, inotrope-, ICU-, ventilation-free days counted at specified days; delirium evaluated with CAM-ICU; drug consumption measured as daily morphine-equivalent and daily doses of propofol/midazolam and use of boluses; adverse events rates including refractory hypertension and malignant hyperthermia; subgroup analyses for pre-ECMO cardiac arrest and acute myocardial infarction.
