Moreover, mitochondrial function is proven to be severely impaired in critically ill patients and mitochondrial dysfunction has been linked to post-ICU disorders.\n\nIn this context, it is relevant to study the evolution over time of the acylcarnitine profile in ICU survivors of a prolonged ICU stay. It is also relevant to compare the same profile between survivors of a prolonged and a shorter ICU stay.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': '* Group short stayers: Critically ill patients with ICU length of stay of 2 days: patients admitted in ICU after a scheduled cardiac surgery with sternotomy\n* Group long stayers: Critically ill patients with ICU length of stay of at least 7 days, whatever the critically illness', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Group short stayers: ICU length of stay of 2 days\n* Group long stayers: ICU length of stay of at least 7 days\n\nExclusion criteria: patient refusal'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05115734', 'briefTitle': 'Acylcarnitine Profile After Intensive Care', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of Liege'}, 'officialTitle': 'Acylcarnitine Profile After Intensive Care', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'CARNUSI'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'Short stayers', 'description': 'Determination of the acylcarnitine profile during the 5 days following discharge of a short stay in ICU (maximum 2 days)', 'interventionNames': ['Diagnostic Test: Serum acylcarnitine profiling']}, {'label': 'Long stayers', 'description': 'Determination of the acylcarnitine profile during the year following discharge of a prolonged stay in ICU (7 days or more)', 'interventionNames': ['Diagnostic Test: Serum acylcarnitine profiling']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Serum acylcarnitine profiling', 'type': 'DIAGNOSTIC_TEST', 'description': 'Blood samples are collected through a central or peripheral venous line placed for clinical use, or through venous punction.
