To measure the rate of recall of study participation and study attrition in survivors of acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).
MATERIALS/METHODS: In this ancillary study of the Re-evaluation of Systemic Early neuromuscular blockade(ROSE) trial, we measured the rate of study participation recall 3 months following discharge and subsequent study attrition at 6 months. We compared patient and hospital characteristics, and long-term outcomes by recall. As surrogate decision-makers provided initial consent, we measured the rate of patient reconsent and its association with study recall.
Of 487 patients evaluated, recall status was determined in 386(82.7%). Among these, 287(74.4%) patients recalled participation in the ROSE trial, while 99(25.6%) did not. There was no significant difference in 6-month attrition among patients who recalled study participation (9.1%) and those who did not (12.1%) (p = 0.38). Patient characteristics were similar between groups, except SOFA scores, ventilator-free days, and length of stay. 330(68%) were reconsented. Compared to those not reconsented, significantly more patients who were reconsented recalled study participation(78% vs. 66%;p = 0.01).
One in 4 ARDS survivors do not recall their participation in a clinical trial during hospitalization 3 months following hospital discharge, which did not influence 6-month attrition. However, more patients recall study participation if reconsent is obtained.
测量急性呼吸窘迫综合征(ARDS)幸存者对研究参与和研究退出的回忆率。
材料/方法:在重新评估系统性早期神经肌肉阻滞(ROSE)试验的辅助研究中,我们测量了出院后 3 个月的研究参与回忆率,以及 6 个月时的研究退出率。我们通过回忆来比较患者和医院特征以及长期结果。由于替代决策人提供了最初的同意,我们测量了患者重新同意的比例及其与研究回忆的关联。
在评估的 487 名患者中,有 386 名(82.7%)确定了回忆状态。在这些患者中,287 名(74.4%)患者回忆起参与了 ROSE 试验,而 99 名(25.6%)患者没有回忆起。在回忆起研究参与的患者(9.1%)和未回忆起的患者(12.1%)之间,6 个月的退出率没有显著差异(p = 0.38)。除 SOFA 评分、无呼吸机天数和住院时间外,两组患者的特征相似。有 330 名(68%)患者获得了重新同意。与未重新同意的患者相比,获得重新同意的患者明显更多地回忆起了研究参与(78%比 66%;p = 0.01)。
在出院后 3 个月,每 4 名 ARDS 幸存者中就有 1 名不记得他们参加了临床试验,这并没有影响 6 个月的退出率。然而,如果获得重新同意,更多的患者会回忆起研究参与。
