About this study

We aimed to investigate the role of bioimpedance spectroscopy for the diagnosis of hyponatremia

Read the detailed description
  • Up to now, "Hyponatremia" differentially diagnosed by physical examination, plasma and urine osmolalities, Echocardiography and biochemical measurements.
  • The purpose of this study is to determine whether bioimpedance spectroscopy can be used for the detection of hypovolemia and hypervolemia for the differential diagnosis of hyponatremia.
Conditions
Hyponatremia
Keywords
Bioimpedance spectroscopy, Hypervolemia, Hypovolemia
Medical subject headings
Hyponatremia, Edema, Hypovolemia

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT01838759
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Hypovolemic hyponatremiaNegative values of "Overhydration" measured by Bioimpedance spectroscopy
Hypervolemic hyponatremiaPositive values of "Overhydration" measured by Bioimpedance spectroscopy

What is being measured

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

  1. Accuracy of volume status measured by bioimpedance spectroscopy

    BIOIMPEDANCE SPECTROSCOPY:

    Overhydration (OH) measurement by Body Composition Monitor (Fresenius Medical Care)

    Negative values of "OH" indicating Hypovolemia and positive values for hypervolemia in hyponatremic patients.

    Measured: Six months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Laboratory data and echocardiography

    LABORATORY MEASUREMENTS Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, White blood cell count Platelet count, Na, Potassium, Chlorur, Urea, Creatinine, Uric acid, Plasma osmolality, Urine osmolality, Alanine transaminase , Aspartate transaminase , Urine specific gravity,

    TREATMENT MODALITY

    1. Diuretics
    2. Intravenous hydration by isotonic saline

    ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY:

    Left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, Left ventricular end-systolic diameter, Ejection fraction(%), Left Atrium diameter, Aortic diameter, Right atrium diameter, Interventricular septum, Posterior wall thickness, Mitral insufficiency, Pulmonary insufficiency, Systolic pulmonary artery pressure, Tricuspid insufficiency

    Measured: 6 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hyponatremia, run by Zonguldak Bulent Ecevit University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 3 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 3 Nov 2014. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Accuracy of volume status measured by bioimpedance spectroscopy (time frame: Six months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01838759, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 3 Nov 2014.
