About this study

Official title: Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Pulmonary Perfusion: Its Role in the Diagnosis of the Severity of Pulmonary Hypertension in Adults and in the Follow-up. Preliminary Study.

Pulmonary hypertension is a rare severe disease leading to cardiac insufficiency. Treatment depends on the severity of the disease.

This study evaluates cardiac MRI for the assessment of pulmonary hypertension severity and identification of parameters useful for the follow-up in order to adapt the medical treatment to status of the patient.

Evaluate if cardiac MRI can obviate right cardiac catheterization in the follow-up.

Read the detailed description

Thirty patients will be enrolled and followed for 1 year after their inclusion.

Cardiac MRI will be performed at inclusion and at 3 months and 12 months. At the same periods, echocardiography and right heart catheterization will be performed too.

Morphological and functional parameters will be studied with MRI and correlated to invasive parameters and echocardiography too.

Morphological parameters are: volumes, cardiac cavities areas and ratios and position of the interventricular septum. Functional parameters are: ejection fractions of right and left cavities, flow in pulmonary artery, across mitral and tricuspid valves, temporal measurements in the pulmonary artery and auriculoventricular valves.

The invasive measurements are considered as the gold standard for this study. The classification of the severity is defined according to the parameters from right cardiac catheterization (4 grades with severity increasing between 1 and 4).

What is being measured

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

  1. Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging

    Correlation of cardiac results from the first MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) to invasive measurements from the first or initial right heart catheterization and to echocardiography to know if cardiac MRI is able to predict severity of the disease

    Measured: Inclusion ; 3rd month ; 12th month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in people with Pulmonary Hypertension, run by University Hospital, Toulouse 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 4 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 14 Mar 2016. 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?

Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (time frame: Inclusion ; 3rd month ; 12th month). 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 14 Mar 2016.
