Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients with indication for cardiac snchronization therapy

Who may be able to join

  • Male and female patients 18 years or older, who met the indications for cardiac synchronization therapy (CRT) per the ACCF/AHA guidelines, underwent successful system implant for more than 3 months, and were referred to the CRT non-responder clinic at the Ohio State University for CRT- Echo optimization due to absence of clinical improvement in functional class or ejection fraction after the implant per the judgment of the referring physician.

Who cannot join

  • Chronic atrial fibrillation or new cardiac arrhythmias detected at the time of the visit that are known to affect the response to CRT (Atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia, ventricular tachycardia, or frequent premature ventricular contractions).
  • CRT device malfunction
  • Inadequate CRT programming that has contributed to lack of response to CRT
  • Coronary sinus lead anatomical or electrical malfunctions at the time of the visit
  • Acute systemic illness that can explain their lack of functional improvement (i.e., anemia, severe electrolyte imbalance, pneumothorax, pericardial effusion, pneumonia)
  • Inability to sign informed consent

About this study

Official title: Lung Doppler Signals Changes in Response to Cardiac Resynchronization in Heart Failure Patients

Study Purpose and Rationale The purpose of this study is to evaluate the lung Doppler signals changes during cardiac resynchronization procedure. As the LDS represent the various mechanical events of cardiac origin it is assumed that they may reflect the relative timing between contraction of the ventricles and atria and thus serve for effective synchronization of these activities.

Aim of the study:

The aim of the study is to assess whether the changes in Lung Doppler Signal (LDS) waves' characteristics will mimic the changes in echocardiographic parameters designed to assess diastolic inflow and systolic flow in patients undergoing Echo-based CRT optimization.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Doppler signals before and after CRT

    Measured: During procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Change in LDS Signals Due to Cardiac Synchronization Therapy, run by Echosense Ltd. 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 6 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 Aug 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?

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?

Change in Doppler signals before and after CRT (time frame: During procedure). 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 Aug 2015.
