About this study

Official title: 3D Ultrasound for Perfusion in Neonates

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of renal ultrasound to check kidney perfusion in premature and/or very low birth weight babies.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of 3D (3 dimensional)renal ultrasound to check kidney perfusion (to see if the kidney is receiving enough blood flow to function as it should) in premature and/or very low birth weight babies.

Being tested
3D Ultrasound Imaging
Keywords
renal, neonates

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 3D Ultrasound ImagingProcedure or surgery

    Ultrasound scanning with power Doppler is used to determine the fractional blood volume of the kidneys in pre-mature and/or very low birth weight babies. This is a measure of perfusion and an indication of how well the kidneys are working.

Receives: Procedure: 3D Ultrasound Imaging

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To determine if ultrasound imaging can accurately help physicians determine if the kidneys are being adequately perfused.

    Fractional blood volume was determined as a way to measure kidney perfusion. Adequate perfusion indicates that the kidneys are working and might indicate if a baby was responding to a specific treatment or not.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 3D Ultrasound Imaging in people with Kidney Perfusion, run by University of Michigan at 1 site in United States.

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 1 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2017. 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 United States. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

To determine if ultrasound imaging can accurately help physicians determine if the kidneys are being adequately perfused. (time frame: 1 year). 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 19 Sep 2017.
