About this study

Official title: Hemodynamic Effect of Temporary Biventricular Pacing After Mitral and/or Tricuspid Valve Surgery in Patients With Preoperative Biventricular Dysfunction

left ventricular epicardial pacing leadExperimentalEnrolled patients will have a temporary left ventricular epicardial pacing lead placed in addition to the standard right ventricular and right atrial temporary epicardial pacing leads after open cardiac chamber cardiac surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Right ventricular function of the heart

    Right Ventricular function is evaluated through combined echocardiographic interventricular synchrony variables which include pulmonary artery catheter derived cardiac index, pulmonary artery (PA) pressure, central venous pressure (CVP), CVP versus PA diastolic pressure, and systolic blood pressure.

    Measured: 24 hours after cardiac surgery completion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing left ventricular epicardial pacing lead in people with Right Ventricular (RV) Dysfunction, run by University of Pennsylvania 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 1 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 14 Nov 2017. 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?

Right ventricular function of the heart (time frame: 24 hours after cardiac surgery completion). 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 14 Nov 2017.
