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.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Intensive care patients after elective open aortic surgery

Diagnostic Test: Analysis of eicosanoid profile prior to and after PRBC transfusion
Using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry to analyze the eicosanoid profile in patient plasma and aliquoted of the PRBCs prior to and after PRBC transfusion.

Intensive care patients after bilateral lung transplantation

Diagnostic Test: Analysis of eicosanoid profile prior to and after PRBC transfusion
Using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry to analyze the eicosanoid profile in patient plasma and aliquoted of the PRBCs prior to and after PRBC transfusion.

Anesthetic intensive care patients, unplanned admission

Diagnostic Test: Analysis of eicosanoid profile prior to and after PRBC transfusion
Using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry to analyze the eicosanoid profile in patient plasma and aliquoted of the PRBCs prior to and after PRBC transfusion.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. 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

  1. 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]

  2. 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]
