About this study

Official title: A Randomized Controlled Trial of Minimally Invasive Transthoracic Device Closure in the Treatment of Patients With Perimembranous Ventricular Septal Defect

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of minimally invasive transthoracic device closure of ventricular septal defect. This is a multi-center randomized controlled trial. Because of the characteristics of this surgical clinical trials, surgeons, ultrasonic department doctors, anesthesiologists, operating room nurses and intensive care unit nurses are all need to be informed. Therefore the results of this trial need to be system evaluated through objective methods to reduce bias.

Read the detailed description

Several examinations need to be done in all the patients, including X-ray, electrocardiogram, echocardiogram, blood routine examination, liver and kidney function, electrolytes, coagulation function and infectious index checks. And they will be divided into two groups after they have obtained informed consent: surgical group (50 cases); closure group (50 cases). If the closure failed, the patients in closure group will be converted to surgical repair with cardiopulmonary bypass .

Recheck X-ray, electrocardiogram, echocardiogram, blood routine examination, liver and kidney function and electrolytes need to be done in all the patients two days after operation. The patients were followed up by X-ray, electrocardiogram, echocardiogram at the first month, third month, sixth month and the first year.

What is being measured

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

  1. the success rate of the operation

    The definition of a successful operation: shunt disappeared

    Measured: index procedure (day 0)

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. adverse events

    death, cardiac perforation, cardiac tamponade, emerging tricuspid regurgitation, emerging aortic regurgitation, arrhythmias (third-degree atrioventricular block, complete bundle branch block), postoperative residual shunt (refers to the residual shunt, which diameter greater than 2mm or flow rate greater than 3m/s), infective endocarditis, postoperative murmur

    Measured: 12 months

  2. thoracic fluid volume

    Measured: index procedure (day 0)

  3. blood transfusion

    Measured: index procedure (day 0)

  4. operating time

    time cost from cut the skin to complete closure of the sternum

    Measured: index procedure (day 0)

  5. postoperative ventilator support time

    Measured: index procedure (day 0)

  6. postoperative hospital stay

    Measured: 7 days after operation or before discharge

  7. costs

    Measured: 7 days after operation or before discharge

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing transthoracic device closure and surgical repair in people with Perimembranous Ventricular Septal Defect, run by Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Fuwai Hospital at 3 sites in China.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Dec 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in China. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Xiangbin Pan, Dr (010-88396666, fuwaiyiyuan28@163.cpm), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the success rate of the operation (time frame: index procedure (day 0)). 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 31 Dec 2015.
