About this study

Official title: Left Ventricular Function Assessment After Acute Myocardial Infarction: Comparison Between bi-, Three-dimensional and Cardiac Magnetic Resonance

compare measurements of left ventricular volumes and LVEF obtained by 2DE, 3DE, and CMR after a ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) complicated by systolic left ventricular dysfunction

Read the detailed description

The assessment of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is a critical step after a myocardial infarction because it determines the prognosis and the therapeutic management (indication of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators). Three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) are accurate and reproducible techniques to quantify left ventricular volumes and LVEF. However, all the large randomized trials which evaluated the role of the implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) on survival in primary prevention were based on LVEF values obtained by older techniques like bi-dimensional echocardiography (2DE), angiography or radionuclide scanning. From now, no study has compared the measurements of left ventricular volumes and LVEF obtained by further current techniques after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) particularly after 1 month when ICD could be indicated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing compare measurements of left ventricular volumes and LVEF (by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance and Echocardiography) in people with Acute Myocardial Infarction, run by Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille at 1 site in France.

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 2 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Aug 2015. 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 France. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

compare measurements of left ventricular volumes and LVEF obtained by 2DE, 3DE, and CMR after a ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) complicated by systolic left ventricular dysfunction. (time frame: 3 MONTHS). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 24 Aug 2015.
