About this study

Official title: Prediction of Fluid Responsiveness Using TFU (Transfontanel Ultrasound) in Children With Congenital Heart Disease After Cardiac Surgery

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of TFU (transfontanel ultrasound)for the prediction of fluid responsiveness in children undergoing congenital heart surgery.

Being tested
TFU(transfontanel ultrasound)

What participants receive

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

  • TFU(transfontanel ultrasound)Procedure or surgery

    The respiratory variation of the carotid artery blood flow peak velocity was measured using TFU before and after the fluid administration (10ml/kg for 20 min.)

Study groups in NCT02632227
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Hypovolemiapatients with hypovolemic signs including hypotension, decreased central venous pressure (less than 5mmHg), and decreased urine output
Receives: Procedure: TFU(transfontanel ultrasound)

What is being measured

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

  1. change in respiratory variation of carotid artery blood flow peak velocity after volume expansion

    Measured: before and after fluid administration (20min)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. change in cardiac index after volume expansion

    Measured: before and after fluid administration (20min)

  2. change in pleth variability index after volume expansion

    Measured: before and after fluid administration (20min)

  3. change in respiratory variation of aorta flow blood flow peak velocity after volume expansion

    Measured: before and after fluid administration (20min)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Fluid Responsiveness, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 3 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 5 Apr 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 South Korea. 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?

change in respiratory variation of carotid artery blood flow peak velocity after volume expansion (time frame: before and after fluid administration (20min)). 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 5 Apr 2018.
