Study summary

This study will determine reference range intervals for the parameters reported by the Quantra System with the QPlus Cartridge in pediatric patients.

Read the detailed description

The hemostatic profile of an infant is different than that of an adult and changes with age. Most differences occur within the first 6 months of age, with coagulation function similar to that of an adult within the first year of life. To assess the clinical utility of the Quantra System in pediatric patients that are bleeding or at risk for bleeding, it is important to understand the normal reference intervals for the parameters reported by the QPlus Cartridge in normal, healthy pediatric patients.

Study population

Children, age birth to \<18 years of age, scheduled for a procedure requiring anesthesia in which vascular access would routinely be placed.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Subject is \<18 years of age
  • Corrected gestational age ≥ 37weeks
  • Subject is scheduled for an elective surgery, non-surgical intervention or diagnostic procedure requiring anesthesia and vascular access with an ≤3.
  • Subject's parent or guardian has signed an form. If required, subject has signed an assent form.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subject is hospitalized in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit
  • Subject requires Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO)
  • Subject has had an infection within 7 days of the scheduled procedure
  • Subject has an active coagulation disorder (bleeding or thrombosis)
  • For subjects that have a measurement within 24 hours of the scheduled procedure, hemoglobin is \<8g/dL or >16g/dL
  • Subject has a baseline oxygen saturation \<92%
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

ASA physical status

The anaesthetists’ scale of health before surgery: I is healthy, II has a mild illness that is under control, III a severe one, IV a severe illness that is a constant threat to life. V and VI are used for the critically ill and for organ donors.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Hemoglobin (Hb)

The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. A low level is anaemia, which can cause tiredness and breathlessness. Measured in g/dL or g/L (9 g/dL is 90 g/L).
