About this study

Official title: Prospective Study to Obtain Preliminary Data to Determine the Efficacy of Non Contrast DWI Imaging Compared to CMR-DE

Use of MRI and DWI to diagnose cardiac scarring after heart attack.

Read the detailed description

To discover new information about MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) called DWI (diffusion weighted imaging) and its ability to diagnose cardiac scarring.

CMR-DE (cardiac MR with delayed contrast enhancement) evaluates if there has been scarring in the heart muscle following a heart attack.

Subjects are injected with a contrast medication that makes the scarring visible if present. To prove the efficacy of DWI (diffusion weighted imaging) to provide the same images that CMR-DE (cardiac magnetic resonance with delayed contrast enhancement) provides.

What participants receive

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

  • Diffusion Weighted Imaging with MRI scansProcedure or surgery

    Subjects will have an MRI(magnetic resonance imaging)performed. This sequence will take no longer than 10 to 15 minutes to complete. Only DWI (diffusion weighted imaging) will be added to the standard cardiac MR protocol for viability which requires contrast injection. DWI(diffusion weighted imaging) sequence does not require contrast injection.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Diffusion Weighted Imaging with MRI scansExperimentalSubjects will undergo a MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scan where DWI (diffusion weighted imaging) will be performed. Subjects will not receive contrast during this sequence, but will receive contrast as standard MRI protocol.
Receives: Procedure: Diffusion Weighted Imaging with MRI scans

What is being measured

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

  1. presence and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) quantification of scar on (DWI) diffusion weighted image

    Confirm the efficacy of diffusion weighted imaging in providing imaging that shows cardiac scarring without the injection of contrast.

    Measured: single occurance

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Diffusion Weighted Imaging with MRI scans in people with Heart Attack, 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 3 inclusion and 4 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 19 Oct 2016. 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.

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?

presence and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) quantification of scar on (DWI) diffusion weighted image (time frame: single occurance). 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 19 Oct 2016.
