Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The safety as in number of (serious) adverse events within 30 days after initiation of AP treatment is the primary endpoint. According to Dutch regulations (CCMO) all AE’s and SAE’s will be monitored and reported. To monitor the complications all possible adverse events, expected and unexpected ones, are recorded and noted in the CRF. Adverse events are defined as any unusual experience occurring to a subject during the study, whether or not considered related to alkaline phosphatase. This includes fever without suspicion, skin rash and signs of an allergic reaction (as suspected by the physician) will be reported. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Length of stay ICU/ hospital, time to reach complete (>95%) wound closure, number of surgical procedures, mortality at 30 days. Also, values of inflammatory markers (e.g. macrophages, neutrophils, lymphocytes and their inflammatory products (TNF-a, IL-1ß, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and IL-18) over time will be analysed. | — |
