Trial summary

The aim of the study is to investigate the accuracy of a new semi-invasive cardiac output monitoring system in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery. The investigators hypothesize that the semi-invasive device may be affected by mean arterial pressure and systemic vascular resistance. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Estimation of Cardiac Output by a New Semi-invasive Monitoring System: Accuracy and Limitations

The aim of the study is to investigate the accuracy of a new semi-invasive cardiac output monitoring system in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery. The investigators hypothesize that the semi-invasive device may be affected by mean arterial pressure and systemic vascular resistance.

Read the detailed description

A recently introduced semi-invasive monitoring system consists of an algorithm that provides beat-to-beat measurement of CI by analysis of the arterial blood pressure tracing. By using the autocalibration mode this software calculates the individual aortic compliance and systemic vascular resistance by taking patient data like age, height, weight and gender into account. After estimation of beat-to-beat stroke volume, a subsequent multiplication by the heart rate delivers pulse contour cardiac index. Furthermore, this device offers the opportunity for external calibration by a reference technique, e.g. pulmonary or transpulmonary thermodilution.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the accuracy and trending ability of autocalibrated semi-invasive CI by a new arterial waveform analysis compared with transpulmonary thermodilution before and after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing COPFX in people with Cardiac Output, High, run by University Hospital Schleswig-Holstein at 1 site in Germany.

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 25 Oct 2016. 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 Germany. 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?

cardiac output by pulse contour Analysis compared with transpulmonary thermodilution (time frame: participants will be followed for the start and the end of operation, on the average of 4 hours). 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 NCT02312505, 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 25 Oct 2016.
