What participants receive

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

  • HemosprayDevice

    The Hemospray™ device comes in a 7F kit and a 10F kit. Each kit includes two 220 cm Teflon application catheters, a handle with CO2 cartridge and a syringe containing approximately 20 g of the Hemospray™ material. Hemospray™ is a proprietary inorganic mineral powder that acts as a mechanical barrier when sprayed over a bleeding lesion and the surrounding mucosa.

  2. Percentage of hemostasis of lower GI bleeds originating from multiple sources

    Measured: 30 days

  3. All cause mortality

    Mortality within 30 days of index procedure

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colonic Diverticula and Angiodysplasia, run by Cook Group Incorporated at 4 sites in Canada.

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 10 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 20 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Canada. 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?

Percentage of device related adverse events (time frame: 30 days). 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 NCT02099435, 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 20 Jan 2017.
