Trial summary

Assessment of right ventricular (RV) function in patients with acute respiratory syndrome (ARDS) is warranted because RV failure is frequent and associated with worse outcome. Transthoracic echocardiography is the cornerstone of RV assessment but it remains challenging. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: ARDStrain : Assessment of Right Ventricular 2d-strain in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Assessment of right ventricular (RV) function in patients with acute respiratory syndrome (ARDS) is warranted because RV failure is frequent and associated with worse outcome. Transthoracic echocardiography is the cornerstone of RV assessment but it remains challenging. Quantification of RV deformation by speckle-tracking imaging echocardiography (STE) is a widely available and reproducible technique that readily provides an integrated analysis of all segments of the RV. This study aims to investigate the accuracy of STE-derived strain parameters in assessing RV function during ARDS.

    Measured: up to 36 hours after Intensive Care Unit admission

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Measure of PaO2/FiO2 ratio

    Measured: up to 36 hours after Intensive Care Unit admission

  2. Ventilator-free days

    Measured: 28 days

  3. Mortality

    Measured: 28 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of ARDS, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France 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 3 inclusion and 7 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 Feb 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 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 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?

Measure of longitudinal peak systolic strain (time frame: up to 36 hours after Intensive Care Unit admission). 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 NCT02638844, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Feb 2018.
