Trial summary

The purpose of this research study is to determine if the diameter and flow of the superior mesenteric artery in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage undergoing hypertensive therapy for cerebral artery vasospasm are effected enough to justify withholding enteral nutrition.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Superior Mesenteric Artery Diameter and Flow in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Patients Undergoing Hypertensive Therapy for Cerebral Artery Vasospasm

The purpose of this research study is to determine if the diameter and flow of the superior mesenteric artery in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage undergoing hypertensive therapy for cerebral artery vasospasm are effected enough to justify withholding enteral nutrition.

Read the detailed description

Study measurements of the diameter and Doppler flow velocity of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) using abdominal ultrasound in order to evaluate the potential additional risk of non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI) and non occlusive bowel necrosis (NOBN) in patients undergoing hypertensive therapy for cerebral vasospasm in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (aSAH), to justify the withholding of enteral nutrition.

Receives: Device: Ultrasound

What is being measured

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

  1. Change between baseline and 21 days of abdominal ultrasound measurement of the diameter in the superior mesenteric artery

    Measured: Change from baseline up to 21 days

  2. Change between baseline and 21 days of abdominal ultrasound measurement of the doppler flow velocity in the superior mesenteric artery

    Measured: Change from baseline up to 21 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of participants with non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI)

    Number of participants with non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI) undergoing hypertension therapy with vasoactive medications for cerebral arterial vasospasm in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH).

    Measured: Change from baseline up to 21 days

  2. Number of participants with non occlusive bowel necrosis (NOBN)

    Number of participants with non occlusive bowel necrosis (NOBN) undergoing hypertension therapy with vasoactive medications for cerebral arterial vasospasm in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH).

    Measured: Change from baseline up to 21 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intracranial Aneurysm, run by University of Florida 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 1 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 19 Mar 2020. 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?

Change between baseline and 21 days of abdominal ultrasound measurement of the diameter in the superior mesenteric artery (time frame: Change from baseline up to 21 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Mar 2020.
