Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Between- and within-subject variability (assessed by standard deviation) of mitoPO2 measurements over a period of 24 hours after ALA-induction. - Initially in healthy volunteers - Followed by neurosurgical patients admitted postoperatively to the ICU or MC, PACU or other hospital ward. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary endpoints: - Description of the differences in the between- and within-subject variability between 3 hour offset ALA-patches. - Description of between- and within-subject variability in healthy volunteers and neurosurgical patients in relation to the between- and within-subject variability of the INOX ICU-2 pilot study (NL59512.058.16) - Report on adverse and serious adverse events of the mitoPO2 measurements. | — |
