About this study

Official title: Clinical Observation and Pathological Characterization of Aortic Tissue at Reoperation

This study will analyse factors contributing to cardiac re-operation to determine causative effects

Read the detailed description

This study will collect clinical data on the characteristics of aortic tissue on which BioGlue has been applied during a previous cardiovascular surgery. This is a post market surveillance study.

Medical subject headings
Aortic Aneurysm, Aortic Dissection

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT02375542
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Cardiac ReoperationPatients who have previously undergone a cardiac operation with the use of BioGlue and are now undergoing a reoperation

What is being measured

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

  1. The microscopic evaluation of the presence of BioGlue on aortic tissue

    Measured: "participants will be followed for the duration of their surgery, an expected average of 5 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Observation and characterization of BioGlue usage during the reoperation procedure

    Measured: "participants will be followed for the duration of their surgery, an expected average of 5 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aortic Aneurysm and Aortic Dissection, run by CryoLife Europa at 1 site in Italy.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 19 Jul 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 Italy. 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?

The microscopic evaluation of the presence of BioGlue on aortic tissue (time frame: "participants will be followed for the duration of their surgery, an expected average of 5 hours). 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 19 Jul 2018.
