Mild Hypothermia for COVID-19 ARDS

NCT04570462 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2021-06-29

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Some patients with COVID have abnormally high carbon dioxide and low oxygen levels despite being on the ventilator. The hypothesis of the study is that the application of mild hypothermia to patients with COVID will decrease their metabolic rate and improve their oxygenation and carbon dioxide levels.

Conditions

  • COVID19 ARDS

Hypothermia Via Cooling Machine- Arctic Sun 5000

Initiate hypothermia using the Arctic Sun.The Arctic Sun 5000® is set to a temperature of 34.5 C to lower the body temperature. Duration of hypothermia will be 48 hours after which the subject will be rewarmed. Metabolic rate, or indirect Calorimetry, will be assessed at baseline, day 1 of hypothermia, day 2 of hypothermia before rewarming, and after full rewarming. CBC, basic metabolic profile, magnesium, phosphorus, coagulation profile, ABG, inflammatory markers would be drawn every 12 hours during hypothermia until subject has achieved full rewarming and once after full rewarming. The entire hypothermia procedure will last 48 hours. Acceptable rewarming range is a temperature of 36.5C to 37.5C. The subject body temperature rewarming is typically set over 6-8 hours. Therefore, the final 6-8 hours of the 48 hour time period is set to rewarm the subject.
