Trial summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate, in an intensive care unit, the reproducibility between two non-cardiologists operators and a cardiologist expert in echocardiogram, of the Simpson method and of the calculation of GLS for the evaluation of the systolic function of the left ventricle in critically ill patients… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Ultrasound Evaluation of the Left Ventricular Systolic Function in Intensive Care Unit.

The aim of this study is to evaluate, in an intensive care unit, the reproducibility between two non-cardiologists operators and a cardiologist expert in echocardiogram, of the Simpson method and of the calculation of GLS for the evaluation of the systolic function of the left ventricle in critically ill patients intubated and ventilated.

What participants receive

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

  • UltrasoundDevice

    Cardiac echocardiography to determin the left ventricular ejection fraction by the biplane modified Simpson rule and by the calculation of the Strain Longitudinal Global by 2-D speckle tracking strain echocardiography

What is being measured

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

  1. Reproducibility of measurements of the ejection fraction of the left ventricle by two measurement methods and reproducibility of myocardial strain measurements between operators

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Area under the ROC curve of the value of myocardial strain (GLS)

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Dysfunction, Left Ventricular, run by Fondation Ophtalmologique Adolphe de Rothschild at 1 site in France.

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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Mar 2019. 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 France. 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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Reproducibility of measurements of the ejection fraction of the left ventricle by two measurement methods and reproducibility of myocardial strain measurements between operators (time frame: Baseline). 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 26 Mar 2019.
