Trial summary

Temporary pacing via femoral vein is used widely in mainland China, because of its feasibility and simplicity. However, pulmonary embolism often occurred after the procedure. It is not known that whether there was any difference in incidence of pulmonary embolism between via different approaches. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Study of Incidence of Pulmonary Embolism During Peroperative Period of Temporary Pacing Via Femoral Vein Versus Subclavian Vein in China

Temporary pacing via femoral vein is used widely in mainland China, because of its feasibility and simplicity. However, pulmonary embolism often occurred after the procedure. It is not known that whether there was any difference in incidence of pulmonary embolism between via different approaches. This randomized and multi-center study was designed to verify whether temporary pacing via subclavian vein has lower incidence than via femoral vein.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing temporary pacing femoral vein and temporary pacing subclavian vein in people with Pulmonary Embolism, run by The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University.

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 8 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 19 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Kai Gu, M.D. (0086 25 68136965, gukaiwang@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of participants suffering from pulmonary embolism (time frame: 12 hours to 7 days after extraction of temporary pacing leads). 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 NCT02430207, which also lists 10 linked publications.

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 Feb 2016.
