ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryProportion of frostbite presentations with severe frostbite (Grade 3-4) at Everest ERfrom enrolment to the end of treatment at 1 week
Patients will be assessed using Cauchy classification. Proportion of patients presenting with grade 3 + 4 frostbite in relation to the total number of patients with frostbite presenting at Everest ER Unit/format: proportion (%)
PrimaryProportion of eligible severe frostbite patients who complete ≥1 field iloprost treatment roundFrom enrolment to 1 week after beginning of treatment
The proportion of the number of patients who successfully completed at least one round of iloprost treatment under field conditions in relation to the number of eligible patients. Denominator explicitly: eligible grade 3-4 patients (Cauchy classification) Unit/format: proportion (%)
PrimaryTime from thawing to initiation of iloprost treatment under field conditionsFrom enrolment to the end of treatment at day 1Unit/format: time (hours or minutes)
PrimaryProportion of iloprost-treated patients with mild adverse effects during/after ≥1 treatment round in the field settingFrom enrollment to the end of treatment at 1 week
Unit/format: proportion (%) Adverse effects will be graded using CTCAE (CTCAE = Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) severity criteria. Proportion of mild adverse effects in the field setting will then be compared with in-hospital settings.
PrimaryProportion of iloprost-treated patients with severe adverse effects during/after ≥1 treatment round in the fieldFrom enrolment to the end of treatment at 1 week
Unit/format: proportion (%) Adverse effects will be graded using CTCAE (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) severity criteria. In a second step proportion of severe adverse events during field treatment will be compared with proportions of in-hospital treatment
PrimaryProportion of patients discontinuing field iloprost treatment (overall) and documented reasons for discontinuationFrom enrolment to end of treatment at 1 weekProportion of discontinued field treatments in relation to all initiated field treatments. Unit/format: proportion (%) + categorical reason counts
PrimaryProportion of iloprost treatment discontinuations attributable to adverse effects in the fieldFrom enrolment to end of treatment at 1 weekUnit/format: proportion (%) Number of treatments discontinued due to adverse reactions in relation to all treatments discontinued (both in the field)
PrimaryQualitative description of logistical constraints and solutions from field notes and staff reportsFrom enrolment to end of treatment at 1 weekNotes and reports will be analysed using a thematic analysis approach to categorise logistical challenges. Reported as: themes/categories with illustrative summaries (qualitative)
PrimaryFrequency of logistical challenges during field iloprost implementationfrom enrolment to end of treatment at 1 week
Number of logistical challenges, classified using a logistical challenge themes arising from qualitative analysis of field notes and staff reports. Possible themes expected include challenges related to equipment availability or functionality, personnel issues, environmental barriers. Reported as: counts (n) and percentages (%) (number of challenges within one respective category in relation to all registered logistical challenges)
PrimaryProportion of logistical challenges resolved during the study periodfrom enrolment to end of treatment at week 1
Number of logistical challenges resolved in relation to all challenges recorded within one defined logistical challenge theme. Reported as: percentage (%) The logistical challenges themes will be arising from qualitative analysis of field notes and staff reports.
Primary
Mean (SD) time from thawing to first iloprost administration (clinical charts/notes), stratified by logistical challenge status (none vs occurred), resolution status (resolved vs unresolved), and challenge category
From enrolment to end of treatment at 1 week
Time-to-treatment in the field will be calculated as the elapsed time between the documented thawing time and the documented start time of the first iloprost administration, as recorded in clinical charts/notes. Each case will be classified by logistical challenge status (no challenge vs challenge occurred). For cases with a challenge, resolution status will be recorded as resolved during the study period vs unresolved/persisting, and challenges will also be assigned to a logistical challenge category. Time-to-treatment will be summarized as mean (SD) within each stratum (e.g., none vs resolved vs unresolved, and by category) and compared across strata.
SecondaryBaseline tissue at risk for amputation (Hennepin Frostbite Score at-risk component)From enrolment to 1 week after treatment initiation
Baseline tissue at risk will be quantified using the Hennepin Frostbite Score at-risk component, documented at initial assessment (before 1st treatment administration). Results will be summarised as score values (mean \[SD\]).
SecondaryOverall digital salvage rate at 6 and 12 months (Hennepin Frostbite Score-defined digits at risk vs amputated) after treatment completionFrom enrolment to 18 months after treatment completion
At 6 and 12 months, the digital salvage rate will be calculated as the proportion of digits at risk that are not amputated, where "digits at risk" and "amputated" are determined using the Hennepin Frostbite Score methodology and follow-up documentation. Results will be reported as n/N and % with 95% confidence intervals, and may be compared with prespecified historical proportions from the literature (one-sample proportion testing as applicable).
SecondaryNumber of participants undergoing any frostbite-related amputation by 6 months and by 12 months after end of treatment (clinical charts/operative notes & self reported)from enrollment to follow ups up to 18 months after discharge.
Amputation status (any vs none) will be ascertained from clinical charts, operative notes and self reports at six and twelve months after treatment completion. Results will be reported as n (%) with 95% confidence intervals, and may be compared with pre-specified historical rates from the literature if feasible.
SecondaryNumber of joints salvaged per participant at 6 and 12 months (Hennepin Frostbite Score-based joint tissue at risk vs amputated)From enrolment to 18 months after discharge
At 6 and 12 months after treatment completion, the number of joints salvaged per participant will be determined from the Hennepin Frostbite Score tissue-at-risk mapping and documented final tissue loss/amputation level. Results will be summarized per participant (e.g., mean \[SD\] and/or distributional summaries) at each timepoint.
SecondaryChange from baseline in pain at follow-up (measured by Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) 0-10)from enrolment to 18months after treatment completion
Pain intensity will be recorded using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) 0-10 as documented in clinical charts/notes at baseline (initial clinical assessment) and self reported at 6 months and 12 months follow-up. The outcome will be change from baseline in NRS score at each follow-up timepoint (follow-up minus baseline). Results will be summarised as mean (SD) at 6 and 12 months (and mean (SD) change), with within-person comparisons over time analysed using paired t-tests.
SecondaryChange from baseline in upper-extremity function at 6 and 12 months (QuickDASH, self-reported)From enrolment to 18months after treatment completion
Upper-extremity function will be assessed using the QuickDASH (11-item self-reported questionnaire about Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH)) at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months. The outcome will be change from baseline in QuickDASH score at each follow-up timepoint (follow-up minus baseline). Results will be summarised as mean (SD) at 6 and 12 months (and mean (SD) change), with within-person comparisons over time analysed using paired t-tests (or pre-specified nonparametric alternatives if assumptions are not met). This assessment will only be undertaken in patients whit frostbites on the upper extremity.
SecondaryChange from baseline in foot/ankle function at 6 and 12 months (FAAM-ADL, self-reported)From enrolment to 18 months after treatment completion
Foot/ankle function will be assessed using the Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) - Activities of Daily Living (ADL) subscale, a self-reported questionnaire, at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months. The outcome will be change from baseline in FAAM-ADL score at each follow-up timepoint. Results will be summarised as mean (SD) at 6 and 12 months (and mean (SD) change), with within-person comparisons analysed using paired t-tests (or pre-specified nonparametric alternatives if assumptions are not met). This assessment will only be undertaken in patients with frostbites affecting the lower extremities.
