简要总结
Gastrointestinal absorption of high dose medication (toxicant) ingested under solid form for suicidal purposes, is prolonged in patients who need intensive care admission and mechanical ventilation. This is due to the large ingested amounts, slowed blood circulation in the digestive system due to low blood pressure, and the formation of conglomerates of pills (pharmacobezoars).
We make the hypothesis that combined decontamination of the digestive system with activated charcoal plus polyethylene glycol may reduce absorption of the ingested toxicant compared with standard care.
Two hundred patients requiring admission to intensive care and mechanical ventilation due to the effect of the ingested toxicant, will be included in a 1:1 randomized fashion over 24 months in the intervention group receiving combined decontamination and standard care group receiving activated charcoal according to guidelines.
The main objective is to show a decrease in the concentration of the toxicant after 24h of randomization.
详细描述
Rationale - digestive absorption of toxic substances ingested in solid form is prolonged in severely intoxicated patients admitted to intensive care and requiring intubation and mechanical ventilation. This prolonged absorption is favoured by the large quantity of tablets/pills ingested, the formation of pharmacobezoars, delayed formulations, co-ingestion of transit slowing agents (such as substances with an anticholinergic effect) and mesenteric hypoperfusion in the event of hypotension slowing absorption.
Digestive decontamination with activated charcoal combined with intestinal purging with polyethylene glycol (PEG) appears to be effective in pharmacokinetic studies, but its benefits have never been studied in intoxicated patients, particularly after admission to intensive care. Digestive decontamination using activated charcoal and polyethylene glycol could reduce toxic concentrations at 24 hours compared with the standard treatment group.
Main objective: To show the greatest reduction in the plasma concentration of the toxicant(s) (ingested parent molecules) at H24 of randomisation in the intervention group receiving activated charcoal + intestinal purge compared with the control group.
primary endpoint: Percentage change in the plasma concentration of the toxic substance(s) (ingested parent molecules) at 24 hours compared with its/their value(s) at randomisation.

入选标准
- •Patient aged ≥18, intoxicated and hospitalised in intensive care AND
- •Main drug toxicant of functional type (any psychotropic or cardiotropic), adsorbable by activated charcoal And
- •Main toxicant identified by the history taken by a healthcare professional on the ward or during care prior to the ward And
- •Main toxicant identified within 3 hours of admission if the patient is already intubated on admission, or within 3 hours of intubation if the patient is intubated on the ward AND
- •Patient intubated for effects attributed to the toxic agent (neuro-respiratory or haemodynamic failure) AND
- •Patient with nasogastric tube or planned nasogastric tube and no contraindications AND

结局指标
主要结局
Percentage change in the plasma concentration of the toxic substance
时间窗: 24 hours post-randomization
The primary endpoint is the percentage change in the plasma concentration of the toxic substance at 24 hours compared with the value at randomization. The percentage variation is calculated as 100 x (Concentration at 24 hours post-randomization-Concentration at randomization)/ Concentration at randomization
次要结局
- Percentage change in plasma concentration of toxicant(48, 72 and 96 hours post-randomization)
- Area under the concentration curve up to the 96 th hour expressed as a percentage of the concentration at randomization(96 hours post-randomization)
- Number of days alive without mechanical ventilation for 28 days post-randomization(28 days post randomization)
- Number of days alive out of critical care for 28 days post-randomization(28 days post randomization)
- The number of vomiting episodes(through the study complétion, an average of 7 days)
- Number of ventilator-associated pneumonias(through the study complétion, an average of 7 days)
- Number of episodes of upper abdominal pain(through the study complétion, an average of 7 days)
- Number of episodes of diarrhoea(through the study complétion, an average of 7 days)
- Presence of hypersensitivity reactions(through the study complétion, an average of 7 days)
