Collaborators’ meeting October 2004 • The importance of the CESAR trial - Giles Peek • Recruitment and enquiries – Ann Truesdale • Ingredients for success – Luton & Dunstable, Bedford • Clinical concerns - Ravin Tiruvoipati • Economics alongside CESAR - Miranda Mugford • Follow-up of patients in trial - Andy Wilson • Keynote speaker: Evidence based care in ICUs - David Goldhill
The Importance of the CESAR Trial Giles J Peek MD FRCS (CTh) Lead Clinical Investigator
What is the Population ? • Adults (18-65 years) • Severe, but potentially reversible respiratory failure • Murray score >3.0, • or • Uncompensated hypercapnoea with a pH <7.20
Expected Survival • Intensive Care National Audit & Research Centre (ICNARC) • The mortality of the 1,506 patients with a PaO2/FIO2 ratio of 100 mmHg in this database was 61.6%
Outcomes for population of patients being studied in CESAR • Vasilyev 1995 • Morris et al 1994 • Peek et al 1997 • Pettifer et al 2001
Vasilyev; Chest 1995;107:1083-8 • 1426 patients in 25 university hospitals • 1991-1992 • Entry criteria: FIO2>50% >24 hours. • Overall hospital survival: 55.6%
Vasilyev; Chest 1995;107:1083-8. • Severe Lung Injury: Murray > 2.5 Survival=30% • End Stage Lung Injury: Murray > 3.5 Survival=18.4% • FIO2 > 80%, Survival <20%
Morris et al,Am J Respir Crit Care Med 1994;149:295-305. • Randomised trial of PCIRV vs ECCO2R • 19 PCIRV patients • 8 survived • Hospital survival = 42%
Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Adult Respiratory Failure Chest 1997;112:759-764. Peek GJ, Moore HM, Moore N, Sosnowski AW & Firmin RK
Adult ECMO,AIMS & DESIGN. • Retrospective chart review of first 50 adult patients to receive ECMO for acute severe respiratory failure at Groby Road / Glenfield • Primary end point: hospital survival
Adult ECMO,INDICATIONS. • Potentially reversible respiratory failure refractory to maximal conventional treatment • Ventilated < 7 days • No contra-indication to heparin
PaO2/FIO2 65mmhg Murray Score=3.4 Time Vent=76.5 hrs Time on 100% O2= 14 hrs. PAP = 39.6 cmH2O. PEEP = 10 cmH2O. MV = 12.6 L/min. MAP = 82 mmHg. MPAP = 29 mmHg. CVP = 12 mmHg. PAWP = 12 mmHg. CO = 127 ml/kg/min. UO = 1.4 ml/kg/hr. Age = 30.1 yrs. Wt = 71.9 Kg. Hb = 10.8 Kg. PATIENT STATUS AT REFERRAL.
OUTCOME IN ADULTS WHEN ECMO IS UNAVAILABLE Pettifer R J*, Peek G J, Sowsnowski A, Killer H & Firmin R K. Heartlink ECMO Unit, Glenfield Hospital, Leicester, UK.
Results • Conventional patients 8/28 Survived (28.5%) • ECMO patients 39/57 Survived (68.4%) • p=0.001
Effect of prone positioning on the survival of patients with acute respiratory failure Gattinoni L. et al. NEJM 2001;345(8):568-573
Gattinoni L. et al: patients • 304 patients, 152 in each group. • Age: 57 supine, 59 prone • PaO2/FIO2: 122 supine, 117 prone • number of non-pulmonary failed organs: • 1.4 supine, 1.3 prone
Gattinoni L. et al: outcomes • Mortality • 23 % at 10-days, 49.3 % at discharge from ICU, 60.5% at 6 months • Relative risk of death prone vs supine 1.06 at six months (0.88 to 1.28) • Mean increase in PaO2/FIO2 prone vs. supine group (63.0+/-66.8 vs. 44.6+/-68.2, P=0.02). • CONCLUSIONS: Although placing patients with acute respiratory failure in a prone position improves their oxygenation, it does not improve survival
Ventilation with lower tidal volumes for acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome The Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Network N Engl J Med 2000;342:1301-8
Lower tidal volumes: patients • 6ml/Kg (PIP<30) vs. 12ml/Kg (PIP<50) • 861 patients • Age 51 + 17 vs. 52 + 18 • PaO2/FIO2 138 + 64 vs. 134 + 58
Lower tidal volumes: results • TV 6.2 + 0.8 vs. 11.8 + 0.8 ml/kg • PIP 25 + 6 vs. 33 + 8 cm/H2O • Mortality 31.0% vs. 39.8% (p=0.007) • Days without organ failure also lower (p=0.006)
Conclusions • CESAR trial population at high risk of death • Good evidence that lower tidal volume effective strategy in conventional ventilation • Effect of ECMO compared to conventional ventilation not yet known

Concerns • Participating centres • CAT Team • Data coordination group

Equipment / Monitoring in transfer • Ventilator (gas driven) • Defibrillator • Suction apparatus • Non invasive (ECG,HR,Saturations,End tidal CO2) • iNO • Invasive monitoring BP • Blood glucose (and ABGs soon).
(Non) Availability of bed for ECMO • increased ECMO beds at Glenfield • Awareness of Trial • Post cards, news letters, visits, chocolates, stickers,mugs, pens, posters, calculators, mints, CESAR Stands in the ICS conferences, study days for the nurses in participating centres

Concerns (CAT team) • Late referrals • Ventilated for more than 10 days. • Ventilated with high pressure and/or high FiO2 for more than 7 days. • Inadequate data during referral. • Failed organs • Prone ventilation • Ionotropic supports.
Concerns (Data co-ordination centre) • Completion of Registration forms (Form A and B). • Completed Assent Form • Data collection on the organ support sheet.
Any further concerns ? - I’ll be back!
We look forward to at least one patient from your centre in the next year.
Economics and the CESAR trial • Purpose and aims • Comparing costs and benefits • Benefits of ECMO • Costs for the health service • Costs for patients and their supporters • Contribution of trial centres to the economic analysis
Economics and the CESAR trial – economics researchers • CESAR PMG members with • University of East Anglia • Miranda Mugford • Mariamma Thalanany • University of Sheffield • Clare Hibbert • Lizzie Coates – to Sep 04
