About this study

Confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE) is a newly developed endoscopic technique. The most commonly used fluorescent substance is Fluorescein sodium.The plasma half-life of fluorescein is 11 minutes. A recent test estimated that fluorescein-based CLSM(confocal laser scanning microscopy) of the upper-GI tract of pigs delivers the best contrast and image quality within the first 8 minutes after injection of fluorescein .However, despite its increasing use in clinical examination,there are no data on contrast dynamics and image quality over time after injection of the fluorescein sodium in the inspection of gastrointestinal tract of human being.

What is being measured

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

  1. The ideal time period for the best CLE imaging when using fluorescein sodium is about 10 minutes

    Measured: Within the 30 minutes after injection of fluorescein

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Change of Image Quality of CLE, run by Shandong University at 1 site in China.

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 7 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 18 Jul 2012. 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 China. 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?

The ideal time period for the best CLE imaging when using fluorescein sodium is about 10 minutes (time frame: Within the 30 minutes after injection of fluorescein). 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 18 Jul 2012.
