Trial summary

Arterial stiffness has been suggested as an independent risk factor for the development of coronary artery disease and stroke. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is an noninvasive established index to quantify arterial stiffness. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Pulse Wave Velocity as a Predictive Factor for Postoperative Cardiovascular Complication After Cardiac Surgery: a Prospective Study

Arterial stiffness has been suggested as an independent risk factor for the development of coronary artery disease and stroke. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is an noninvasive established index to quantify arterial stiffness. Therefore, we try to investigate the correlation between PWV values and cardiovascular complications like stroke, acute renal failure, or perioperative myocardial infarction after cardiac surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative cardiovascular complication and parameters

    Stroke, Delirium, Newly developed atrial fibrillation, ARF, Peak CK-MB and troponin I levels measured at 12 and 24 hours after surgery, Peak estimated GFR and corresponding creatinine

    Measured: within the first 7 days after surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. E/e' and e' measured by transthoracic echocardiography with color-coded tissue dopper imaging in patients undergoing non-valvular cardiac surgery

    peak early transmitral filling velocity during early diastole (E), mean early velocity at the septal mitral annulus (e')

    Measured: baseline and within the first 14 days after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of C.Surgical Procedure; Cardiac, run by Seoul National University Hospital 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 1 inclusion and 5 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 13 Apr 2015. 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?

Postoperative cardiovascular complication and parameters (time frame: within the first 7 days after surgery). 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 13 Apr 2015.
