Microparticles Blood Level in Acute Carbon Monoxide Poisoning


Sponsor

Azienda Ospedaliero Universitaria Maggiore della Carita

Enrollment

108 participants

Start Date

Nov 15, 2022

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The goal of this pilot, clinical, experimental, biological and prospective study with uso of biological material (venous blood sampling), in patient with acute carbon monoxide (CO) intoxication and in a group of healthy non-intoxicated subject (group of control) is the research of a possible increase of circulating microparticles level in human blood with an acute carbon monoxide intoxication. The main question to answer is: Is there an increase of circulating microparticles levels in subjects with acute carbon monoxide poisoning? Two blood samples will be withdrawn from patients with acute carbon monoxide poisoning, one before and one after hyperbaric oxygen treatment. Researchers will compare a group of healthy volunteers to see if there is a different in circulating microparticles blood level compared to patients with intoxication.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTMicroparticles research

The absolute count of the total circulating microparticles will be carried out on the patients' plasma using the NanoSight NS300 instrument (Alphatest). Furthermore, the circulating microparticles will be stained with a combination of three monoclonal antibodies (Becton and Dickinson, NJ,USA) to detect microparticles released by the most abundant cell populations in the blood: leukocyte-derived microparticles (CD45+), endothelial-derived microparticles (CD31+), and PLT-derived microparticles (CD31+ CD41a+).
