Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a prospective, observational, monocentric, phase II (exploratory) cohort study aiming to describe the evolutionary profile of the initial volume of glucose distribution (IDVG) during the first four days of management of severely burned patient.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In the early phase, severe burns induce a state of hypovolaemic shock linked to inflammation and a capillary leak syndrome, responsible for the formation of a voluminous third sector. Initial resuscitation of burn patients is based on an assessment of filling requirements using the Parkland formula, which takes into account the patient's weight and the percentage of burned skin surface. This haemodynamic resuscitation oscillates between a risk of underfilling, responsible for hypovolaemia with low cardiac output and leading to excess mortality, and a state of hydric hyperinflation responsible for numerous complications such as respiratory distress, cardiac failure, abdominal compartment syndrome, and even excess mortality. The necessary adaptation of vascular filling rates is usually achieved by monitoring clinical parameters such as diuresis, or biological parameters such as arterial lactate or haematocrit. More advanced haemodynamic monitoring may be applied in addition, but the targets chosen and their numerical objectives remain to be validated. Due to the burn-induced capillary leak syndrome, quantification of extracellular (intra- and extravascular) fluid volume (ECFV) could be a relevant marker of fluid overload status in severely burned patients. ECFV can be estimated using intravenous glucose. Glucose is distributed throughout the extracellular fluid compartment within a few minutes, and defines an initial volume of glucose distribution (IDVG) proportional to the ECFV. This measurement has been validated in healthy individuals and in various pathological conditions. In intensive care patients, the values are between 3.1 and 4.8 L/m2.

To the best of our knowledge, no study has assessed variations in ECV measured by the LVDI in severely burned patients in the early phase of intensive care. Understanding these variations could make a definite contribution to the adaptation of perfused fluid volumes.

Intervention Model

SINGLE_GROUP

This is a prospective, observational, single-centre phase II (exploratory) cohort study aiming to describe changes in initial distribution volume of glucose (IDVG) during the first 4 days of care for patients with severe burns. Patients will be included on admission to the Burn Treatment Centre and IDVG will be measured on admission, then every 8 hours for the first 24 hours of the stay, then every 24 hours until the fourth day. The rest of the evaluation criteria correspond to standard practice in the management of severely burned patients according to the department's procedure.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Glucose administration

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Glucose 30% Intravenous Solution

Intervention Type DRUG

Measurement of IDVG on admission, at 4 hours (H+4), and at 8, 16, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours (H+8, H+16, H+24, H+48, H+72 and H+96) post-burn. The principle of this measurement consists of taking a reference blood glucose level measured on an arterial blood sample (arterial catheter) using a blood glucose meter. A bolus of 5g of glucose is injected into a central venous line over 30 seconds. A second blood glucose level is measured 3 minutes after the end of the injection.

The intra-thoracic blood volume (ITBV) and extra-vascular lung water (EVLW) are measured using the PiCCO device as part of the usual management of burn patients.
