EICOTRANS-p: Effect of Packed Red Blood Cell Transfusion on Eicosanoid Profiles in Plasma of Intensive Care Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The main goal of this pilot study is to assess the time course of eicosanoid profiles in intensive care unit (ICU) patients requiring packed red blood cell (PRBC) transfusion. Moreover we will analyze the change of levels of eicosanoids in patient plasma prior and after a PRBC transfusion as well as its correlation with levels of eicosanoids in the transfused PRBCs. These data will then be used to determine the estimated effect size necessary for the planning of future larger studies. We hypothesize that transfusion of PRBCs will modulate the eicosanoid profile in ICU patients.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change of plasma eicosanoid concentrations in ICU patients subjected to PRBC Transfusion at any time Point compared to baseline [60 minutes prior to 90 minutes after packed red blood cell transfusion]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Changes of plasma eicosanoid profiles after PRBC transfusion compared to prior to PRBC transfusion in ICU patients [60 minutes prior to 90 minutes after packed red blood cell transfusion]
- Correlation of plasma eicosanoid profiles in the transfused PRBCs and the change of their plasma levels in ICU patients [60 minutes prior to 90 minutes after packed red blood cell transfusion]
