About this study

Official title: FEAT: Functional Change in Endothelium After Cardiac cAtheterization, With and Without Music Therapy

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of music therapy before, during, and after cardiac catheterization is associated on (a) change in reactive hyperemia index measured before and after catheterization using peripheral arterial tonometry and (b) patient stress and discomfort measured by a questionnaire, as compared to the standard of care (no music during cardiac catheterization).

The hypothesis of the study is that music therapy during cardiac catheterization will be associated with more favorable change in reactive hyperemia and higher patient satisfaction compared to no music playback.

What is being measured

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

  1. change in reactive hyperemia index measured by peripheral arterial tonometry

    Measured: PAT will be performed within 2 hours before cardiac catheterizaiton and repeated within 2 hours after the end of cardiac catheterization

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Stress and anxiety questionnaire

    a stess and anxiety questionnaire will be completed within 2 hours after cardiac catheterization is completed

    Measured: questionnaire will be completed within 2 hours after the end of cardiac catheterization

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Music therapy in people with Coronary Artery Disease and Endothelial Dysfunction, run by Emmanouil Brilakis 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 2 inclusion and 2 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 29 Oct 2013. 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 phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

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?

change in reactive hyperemia index measured by peripheral arterial tonometry (time frame: PAT will be performed within 2 hours before cardiac catheterizaiton and repeated within 2 hours after the end of cardiac catheterization). 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 29 Oct 2013.
