About this study

This research study is to determine the risk factors for acquired heart disease, in adults with congenital heart disease. This knowledge is important to develop and target ways to prevent or delay the onset of acquired heart disease in adults with congenital heart disease.

Read the detailed description

Advances in surgical and clinical management of patients with congenital heart disease has made survival to adulthood an expectation. Today there are more than 1 million adult survivors of congenital heart disease, but increasing age brings additional concerns for this patient population. Although the literature remains scarce, existing evidence suggests that inactivity, obesity, diabetes, cancer, and acquired cardiovascular disease may be at least as prevalent in patients with congenital heart disease, if not more so, than in an age-matched general population. Acquired cardiovascular disease is likely to impact substantially on long-term survival and quality of life in these patients with palliated and already fragile hearts. This research study is to determine the risk factors for acquired heart disease, in adults with congenital heart disease. This knowledge is important to develop and target ways to prevent or delay the onset of acquired heart disease in adults with congenital heart disease.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Congenital Heart Disease, run by Stanford University at 1 site in United States.

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 18 Sep 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 United States. 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?

Risk factors for acquired cardiovascular disease in adults with congenital heart disease (time frame: 2 years). 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 18 Sep 2019.
