Rest/Stress Quantification Of Left Ventricular Dyssynchrony By 3D Gated Blood Pool D-SPECT

A study testing 3D Blood-Pool Gated SPECT (BPGS) with a new designed cardiac imaging camera (DSPECT, Spectrum Dynamics®, Ceasaria, Israel) in people with Left Ventricular Dyssynchrony, run by University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand at 1 site in France.

Trial summary

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) is an established treatment for patients with advanced heart failure and left ventricular dyssynchrony (LVD). Too many patients do not clinically improve with CRT. New LVD markers other than QRS duration are needed. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Left Ventricular Dyssynchrony: Rest/Stress 3D Blood-Pool Gated D-SPECT Quantification With a High-Speed Dedicated Cardiac Camera Before CRT

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) is an established treatment for patients with advanced heart failure and left ventricular dyssynchrony (LVD). Too many patients do not clinically improve with CRT. New LVD markers other than QRS duration are needed.

Study objective : feasibility assessment of rest and real-time stress 3D Blood-Pool Gated SPECT (BPGS) with a new designed cardiac imaging camera (DSPECT, Spectrum Dynamics®, Ceasaria, Israel) to quantify LVD.

Read the detailed description

Sequential 5 min Gated blood pool D-SPECT acquisition at rest and during last stage of dobutamine and atropin infusion (>85% PHR).

Rest and stress left ventricular ejection fraction, phase standard deviation and entropy will be determined using a fully automatic commercial software (QBS, Cedars-Sinai, Los Angeles, CA).

What participants receive

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

  • 3D Blood-Pool Gated SPECT (BPGS) with a new designed cardiac imaging camera (DSPECT, Spectrum Dynamics®, Ceasaria, Israel)Device

    Sequential 5 min Gated blood pool D-SPECT acquisition at rest and during last stage of dobutamine and atropin infusion (>85% PHR).

    Rest and stress left ventricular ejection fraction, phase standard deviation and entropy will be determined using a fully automatic commercial software (QBS, Cedars-Sinai, Los Angeles, CA).

What is being measured

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

  1. Left ventricular phase standard deviation.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Left ventricular entropy

  2. Left ventricle ejection fraction

  3. Quality of life.

  4. 6-minutes walking test

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 3D Blood-Pool Gated SPECT (BPGS) with a new designed cardiac imaging camera (DSPECT, Spectrum Dynamics®, Ceasaria, Israel) in people with Left Ventricular Dyssynchrony, run by University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand 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 5 inclusion and 11 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jul 2011. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Patrick LACARIN (04 73 75 11 95, placarin@chu-clermontferrand.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Left ventricular phase standard deviation.. 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 11 Jul 2011.
