Trial summary

The goal of this study is to use contrast enhanced ultrasound to determine the degree to which flow is reduced during application of a junctional tourniquet (JT). Contrast enhanced ultrasound is performed to quantify thigh and calf perfusion at baseline and during application of the JT Read more about this study

What participants receive

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

  • Application of a Junctional TourniquetDevice

    All subjects will be studied at baseline and after placement of a junctional tourniquet to the femoral artery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Muscle Perfusion

    Contrast ultrasound perfusion imaging will be performed at baseline and 1 min after application of the JT.

    Measured: baseline and 1 min post occlusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Application of a Junctional Tourniquet in people with Bleeding, run by Oregon Health and Science University 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 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 May 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 May 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Muscle Perfusion (time frame: baseline and 1 min post occlusion). 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 NCT02092415, 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 29 May 2015.
