Burns

Brief summary

This prospective clinical trial aims to investigate the organ protective effects of cetirizine in patients with severe burns.

Detailed description

This is a prospective, randomized, single-blind, parallel-controlled clinical trial. The global objective is to compare the organ protective effects of the sedation and analgesia regimen (midazolam, fentanyl) with the modified sedation and analgesia regimen (midazolam, fentanyl, cetirizine) in patients with severe burns (≥30% TBSA). Participants will receive the intervention from admission to 72 hours post-burn. Researchers will take the APACHE II scores on days 7 after admission as the main outcomes. Researchers will also take other supplementary examination results into account, including liver enzyme, myocardial enzyme, renal function, haemodynamic index, coagulation function, and pulmonary interstitial edema.

Interventions

DRUGCetirizine

Oral administration of cetirizine at 10mg once daily will be used.

Midazolam 50mg + fentanyl 300ug micro pump push will be used with a starting dose of 5ml/hour, adjusted according to the patient's level of sedation. The patient's RASS score will be maintained between -1-0 and the drug will be suspended with a blood pressure below 90/60mmHg.

Inclusion criteria

* Signed and dated informed consent form * Commitment to comply with the procedures and cooperation during the course * TBSA \>30% and admitted within the first day after burns * No severe compound injuries

Exclusion criteria

* History of allergy to drugs in the trial * Postoperative complications that would interfere with the observation * Mental illness and severe heart disease, hypertension * Serious genetic diseases * Incomplete clinical information (unclear diagnosis, incomplete medical history, incomplete medication records, etc.) * Pregnancy/lactation * Malignant tumors * Organ insufficiency due to previous chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus or non-burning factors * Serious adverse reactions * Self-requested withdrawal

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
APACHE II on Day 7Day 7Observation of APACHE II scores of patients in each group 7 days after admission. The APACHE II (Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Evaluation II) is a severity-of-disease classification system. An integer score from 0 to 71 is computed based on several measurements. Higher scores correspond to more severe disease and a higher risk of death.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Blood L-lactateDay 7Observation of Blood L-lactate level 7 days after admission.
Base Excess (BE)Day 7Observation of base excess in blood 7 days after admission.
Oxygen SaturationDay 7Observation of oxygen saturation in blood 7 days after admission.
Stroke Volume VariationDay 7Observation of stroke volume variation (SVV) in PICCO or Uscom 7 days after admission.
Global End-Diastolic VolumeDay 7Observation of global end-diastolic volume (GEDV) in PICCO or Uscom 7 days after admission.
Central Venous PressureDay 7Observation of central venous pressure (CVP) in PICCO or Uscom 7 days after admission.
Stroke VolumeDay 7Observation of stroke volume 7 days after admission.
Cardiac Function IndexDay 7Observation of Cardiac Function Index (CFI) 7 days after admission.
Pulmonary interstitial edemaDay 7Observation of extravascular lung water index (ELWI) or chest x-ray 7 days after admission.
Urinary OutputDay 7Observation of 24-hour urinary output (ml) 7 days after admission.
Body TemperatureDay 7Observation of body temperature 7 days after admission.
Heart RateDay 7Observation of heart rate 7 days after admission.
Respiratory RateDay 7Observation of respiratory rate 7 days after admission.
Leukocyte CountDay 7Observation of leukocyte count in blood 7 days after admission.
Blood CRPDay 7Observation of blood CRP (C-reactive protein) 7 days after admission.
Blood CalcitoninogenDay 7Observation of blood calcitoninogen 7 days after admission.
Mechanical Ventilation DurationDay 28Observation of mechanical ventilation duration during 28 days after admission.
MortalityDay 28Observation of mortality during 28 days after admission.
Sepsis RateDay 28Observation of sepsis rate during 28 days after admission.
SOFA ScoreDay 7Observation of SOFA score 7 days after admission. The SOFA score (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment Score) is a scoring system associated with the organ function or rate of function of patients. An integer score from 0 to 24 is computed based on 6 different scores, one each for the respiratory, cardiovascular, hepatic, coagulation, renal, and neurological systems. Each organ system is assigned a point value from 0 (normal) to 4 (high degree of dysfunction/failure). Higher scores correspond to more severe organ function disorders or failures.
