Stress Only SPECT MPI with SD CameraPatients undergoing clinically-indicated stress-only sestamibi studies who are imaged on the Spectrum Dynamics camera system.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic Failure

    Diagnostic failure is defined by a composite of need for additional downstream testing (anger SPECT, MPI PET, stress echocardiography or coronary CT angiography) within 30 days or a coronary angiogram with no stenoses greater than or equal to 50% severity using quantitative coronary angiography.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Necessity to proceed to a rest image

    The first of 4 secondary end-points is the need to proceed to a rest image.

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Necessity for additional downstream testing

    The second of four secondary endpoints the need for additional downstream testing within 30 days to address the same clincial reason for the innitial referral for stress-onoly imaging, in the absence of any changes in clincial status between tests.

    Measured: 30 days

  3. Coronary Angiography

    The third of four secondary end-points is the occurrence of coronary angiography with no stenoses greater than or equal to 50% severity using quantitative coronary angiography.

    Measured: 60 to 90 days

  4. Determine optimal performance of the Spectrum Dynamics camera system for stress only imaging

    The fourth of four secondary endpoints is to determine optimal performance of the Spectrum Dynamics camera system for stress only imaging: upright imaging alone, supine imaging alone, or both in terms of primary and secondary endpoints

    Measured: 60 to 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease, run by Aspire Foundation at 3 sites 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 6 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 23 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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 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?

Diagnostic Failure (time frame: 30 days). 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 23 Dec 2013.
