About this study

Official title: TDI-Derived Myocardial Preejection Velocities in Patients With Chronic Ischemic Left Ventricular Dysfunction Undergoing Surgical Revascularization

The purpose of the study is to test accuracy of positive preejection velocity to predict left ventricular remodeling and long-term prognosis after revascularization in 200 patients with chronically dysfunctional myocardium. Patients will be followed for 3 years.

Our hypothesis is that tissue-Doppler-derived analysis of positive preejection velocity allows to select optimal responders to revascularization; it means individuals with the greatest benefit in terms of LV remodeling and long-term prognosis.

Read the detailed description

The objective of the project is to study clinical and prognostic value of new echocardiographic technique, so called positive preejection velocity (+VIC), in patients with chronic ischemic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction indicated for revascularization. Pilot studies has shown high accuracy of pulsed Tissue Doppler imaging (TDI)-derived resting pattern of +VIC to detect viable myocardium in patients with both acute myocardial infarction and chronically dysfunctional myocardium. The aim of the project is to test accuracy of +VIC to predict LV remodeling and long-term prognosis after revascularization in patients with chronically dysfunctional myocardium. Study population will consist of two groups of patients with stable ischemic LV dysfunction: group A- patients indicated for revascularization (n=200), group B- matched control group treated conservatively (case-control design) (n=100). All patients will be followed for 3 years. Endpoints include: 1) LV remodeling at 6 and 24 months and 2) MACE at 6, 12 and 36 months follow-up. Our hypothesis is that TDI-derived analysis of +VIC allows to select optimal responders to revascularization; it means individuals with the greatest benefit in terms of LV remodeling and long-term prognosis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease, run by Charles University, Czech Republic at 1 site in Czechia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Oct 2005. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Czechia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Martin Penicka, MD, PhD (+420 26716 2724, penicka@fnkv.cz), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Oct 2005.
