Summary

This multicenter study aims to evaluate the accuracy of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in diagnosing abdominal solid organ injuries in pediatric patients. Up to 130 subjects will complete the study across approximately 5-10 sites in the US, with up to 30 patients in the training phase (3 per site) and 100 patients in the treatment phase of the study. All subjects will have had a CT scan as part of standard of care, confirming at least one solid organ abdominal injury. The study procedure will occur within 48 hours from time of injury. All subjects will have an abdominal ultrasound without contrast, followed by a contrast-enhanced ultrasound using the contrast agent Lumason. Ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound results will be compared to the CT scan results. The CT and ultrasound scans will be read locally and will undergo central review.

Conditions

  • Abdominal Injury

Interventions

DRUG

Lumason

Lumason will be administered at a dose of 0.03 mL/kg up to a maximum dose of 2.4mL injected into a peripheral intravenous catheter. An abdominal contrast enhanced ultrasound will be performed to look for solid organ injury. The will be given twice during the intervention, for a total maximum dose per subject of 4.8mL.
