About this study

Official title: Predictive Factors of Intestinal Infraction in Patients With Acute Mesenteric Ischemia

The study aims to identify several factors that can accurately predict the incident of intestinal infraction in patients with mesenteric vascular occlusion or ischemia.

Read the detailed description

The study aims to identify several clinical, laboratory, and radiologic factors that can accurately predict the occurrence of intestinal infraction in patients with mesenteric vascular occlusion or ischemia in order to prevent unnecessary surgical intervention in patients with just intestinal ischemia and to hasten intervention in patients with actual intestinal gangrene.

Being tested
Heparin injection
Medical subject headings
Mesenteric Ischemia

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Heparin injection in people with Mesenteric Ischemia, run by Mansoura University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 1 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 29 Aug 2017. 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 Egypt. 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 phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

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?

Clinical improvement (time frame: 48 hours). 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 29 Aug 2017.
