About this study

Official title: Prostanoid Therapy in Severe Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension - Imaging Control Study, 3D Echo, MR and RHC.

The aim of the study is to intensify the follow up of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension via modern imaging guided methods in due consideration of the possibilities of three-dimensional echocardiography in order to optimize their specific therapy.

The hypothesis is that the increased use of modern imaging guided tools is essential for the follow up.

Read the detailed description

It is not possible to perform a magnetic resonance imaging in all patients and as a result echocardiography is not only done at screening but also during the follow up. The imaging technologies made a great progress in the last few years and enable a better assessment of the haemodynamic parameters in our days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension WHO Group I, run by Regina Steringer-Mascherbauer at 1 site in Austria.

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 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 May 2018. 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 Austria. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Regina Steringer-Mascherbauer, MD (0043/732/7676 ext. 4916, regina.mascherbauer@elisabethinen.or.at), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

right ventricular ejection fracture (time frame: month 12 (+/- 7 days)). 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 23 May 2018.
