Trial summary

The Nexfin monitoring device relies on noninvasive pressure measurement using a finger-cuff manometer, combined with NIRS technology. The accuracy of the signal is dependent on the degree of vascular unloading, which takes an period before optimal unloading is reached. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evolution of the Accuracy of the Nexfin Pressure Signal Compared to Invasive and Noninvasive Arterial Blood Pressure

The Nexfin monitoring device relies on noninvasive pressure measurement using a finger-cuff manometer, combined with NIRS technology. The accuracy of the signal is dependent on the degree of vascular unloading, which takes an period before optimal unloading is reached. The evolution of the degree of inaccuracy caused by inclomplete unloading is quantified, and the absolute and relative inaccuracy of the nexfin as a function of the time is determined compared to the invasive blood pressure (IBP).

Secondly, the accuracy of the Nexfin to predict the IBP is compared with the accuracy of noninvasive blood pressure to predict the IBP.

Read the detailed description

In patients under stable anesthesia conditions, who have IBP and NIBP monitoring, the Nexfin will additionaly be connected. All data will be recorded for at least 30 minutes. NIBP will be measured every 5 minutes The evolution of the NIBP, IBP and Nexfin-derived blood pressure will be analysed to determine the evolution of inaccuracy due to incomplete vascular unloading and to determine the accuracy of Nexfin compared with NIBP to determine IBP.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bloodpressure, run by University Medical Center Groningen at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 1 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 18 Apr 2024. 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 Netherlands. 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?

vascular unloading time (time frame: Start till end of operation). 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 18 Apr 2024.
