Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of eligible patients enrolled in the CHAT Pilot Trial. Feasibility for the pilot study will be assessed by metrics that reflect our capacity to ultimately recruit a representative sample of 1050 patients in the planned full CHAT trial. We will consider the study to be feasible if we recruit at least 30% (commonly used threshold in ICU studies) of all eligible patients in participating ICUs through careful review of site screening logs.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> 1. Adherence to the medication administration regimen as outlined in the study protocol<br> 2. Proportion of completed primary and secondary endpoints for the planned full CHAT trial that are collected<br> 3. The number of patients who receive open-label statins<br> 4. The number of consent withdrawals<br> 5. Recruitment rates by approved consent model<br><br> All outcomes will be measured upon termination of this pilot study. However, adherence to medication administration will be recorded daily on study days 1 through 14 for each study subject.<br>
