About this study

Official title: Assessment of Right Ventricular Volume Using the Ventripoint Medical System in Patients With Tetralogy of Fallott Following Repair; A Comparison Study to cMRI

Assessment of Right Ventricular Volume using the VentriPoint Medical system in patients with Tetralogy of Fallot following repair; a comparison study to cMRI.

The objective of this study is: To evaluate the accuracy of the VentriPoint Medical System to calculate right ventricular volumes in patients with Tetralogy of Fallot following surgical repair.

Secondary objectives are: To validate Inter and Intra observer variability at 3 clinical sites.

The analyses will be the same for EDV and ESV. For either right ventricular volume, the primary effectiveness measure is the % difference between VMS and cMRI results, i.e. (VMS-cMRI)*100%/average of VMS and cMRI results. There will be two null hypotheses for the primary analysis:

H0+: true mean % difference > 10% and H0-: true mean % difference < -10%

The observed mean % difference will be presented with 95% confidence intervals. The VMS right ventricular volume estimates will be regarded as equivalent to cMRI estimates if both H0+ and H0- are rejected at a 1-sided 0.025 level by a paired t test for both EDV and ESV. Since H0+ and H0- cannot both be true, the total type I error rate for each measure is 0.025 and the overall type I error rate for both EDV and ESV is 0.05.

What participants receive

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

  • VentriPoint Medical SystemDevice

    The Knowledge Based Reconstruction (KBR) method generates a 3D reconstruction of the RV based on the Piecwise smooth subdivision surface method but without requiring manual border tracing. Instead KBR reconstructs a new patient's ventricular surface from the placement of anatomic landmark points on a 2D ultrasound image

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary endpoint of this study is the percent difference between the VentriPoint Medical System (VMS) and cMRI for estimating the end diastolic and end systolic right ventricular volumes (EDV and ESV) in subjects following repair for TOF.

    The trial will be regarded as successful if it demonstrates the mean VMS-cMRI percent difference to be <10% and >-10% at a 1-sided 0.025 statistical significance level for each of EDV and ESV, with no safety concerns for the VMS procedure.

    Measured: 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Tetralogy of Fallot, run by VentriPoint Diagnostics Ltd. at 6 sites in 2 countries.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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 6 Oct 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States, Canada. 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 primary endpoint of this study is the percent difference between the VentriPoint Medical System (VMS) and cMRI for estimating the end diastolic and end systolic right ventricular volumes (EDV and ESV) in subjects following repair for TOF. (time frame: 4 months). 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 6 Oct 2014.
