What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT01869998
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Low risk group (A)(A)Vortex depth≥0.45
High risk group 1 (B)(B)Vortex depth<0.45 with anticoagulation
High risk group 2 (C)(C)Vortex depth <0.45 without anticoagulation

What is being measured

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

  1. Apical thrombus formation in echocardiography

    Evaluate and compare the incidence of thrombus formation in high risk group (Vortex depth < 0.45) and low risk group (Vortex Depth ≥ 0.45)

    Measured: 30 days after initial echocardiography

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Apical Thrombus Formation and Acute Myocardial Infarction, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 7 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 10 May 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 South Korea. 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?

Apical thrombus formation in echocardiography (time frame: 30 days after initial echocardiography). 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 NCT01869998, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 10 May 2016.
