What participants receive

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

  • Echocardiography system Ultra DCI Model 5000Device

    Each subject will undergo scanning using the investigational echocardiography system (Ultra DCI Model 5000)to measure Diastolic Circumferential Strain Rate during Isovolumic Relaxation (DCSR-IVR) as novel measure of diastolic function.

  • Echocardiography machine GE Vivid E9Device

    Each subject will undergo echocardiography using a conventional echocardiography machine to evaluate the early diastolic mitral annular velocity (E-prime) using tissue Doppler as a standard measure of diastolic function.

  • Diastolic function assessmentDevice

    Each subject will undergo standard echocardiographic measure of the mitral inflow pattern and invasive catheter-derived measure of left ventricular end-diastolic pressure to determine their diastolic function. This evaluation will be used as the gold standard for this study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diastolic Circumferential Strain Rate During Isovolumic Relaxation

    Diastolic circumferential strain rate during isovolumic relaxation is a novel measure of diastolic function that measures the rate of relaxation of the left ventricle during the interval of isovolumic relaxation (the period of active relaxation). We would expect that a higher value reflects better relaxation, and better diastolic function.

    Measured: Assessed from echo obtained at time of enrollment

  2. Early Diastolic Mitral Annular Velocity (E-prime) Using Tissue Doppler

    E-prime is a conventional commonly-used parameter of diastolic function. Higher values of E-prime typically reflect better diastolic function.

    Measured: Assessed from echo obtained at time of enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Echocardiography system Ultra DCI Model 5000, Echocardiography machine GE Vivid E9 and Diastolic function assessment in people with Heart Failure, Diastolic, 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 9 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 16 Oct 2023. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Aug 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Diastolic Circumferential Strain Rate During Isovolumic Relaxation (time frame: Assessed from echo obtained at time of enrollment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 16 Oct 2023.
