About this study

Official title: Cyanotic Congenital Heart Disease: Prevalence of Pulmonary and Cerebral Thrombi-embolic Events

The purpose of the study is to examine previously examined patients with cyanotic congenital heart disease to assess how many of the patients have obtained additional blood clots since they were examined 8 years ago.

Read the detailed description

Patients with cyanotic congenital heart disease have reduced oxygen content in their blood due to abnormal connection between the heart's right and left sides. The reduced oxygenation of the blood affects several organs of the body and a common complications to the disease is blood clots. Despite the patients are young and do not have typical risk factors, previous studies have shown, that they have a very high prevalence of thrombosis in the lungs and brain.

The reason for the increased prevalence of blood clots is not known. A previous study investigated the prevalence of blood clots systematically in patients with cyanotic congenital heart disease and found that approximately 30-40% of the patients had had a clot in the lung or brain. Thus, the study could not predict, when the patient had had a thrombotic event, and most of the patients did not previously had imaging performed. Therefore the aim of this study is to re-examine previously examined cyanotic patients regardless of previous medical history, to assess how many of the patients have obtained additional blood clots since they were examined 8 years ago.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pulmonary and cerebral thrombosis

    Numbers and locations of cerebral and and pulmonary thrombosis, which will be compared with previous examinations

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The total numbers of white matter hyper intensity lessons (WMHL)

    The numbers of WMHL will be compared with previous scans.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. The size of the white matter hyper intensity lessons (WMHL)

    The size of the WMHL will be compared with previous scans.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cerebral MRI and V/Q SPECT/CT in people with Thrombosis, run by Annette Schophuus Jensen at 1 site in Denmark.

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 2 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 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 Denmark. 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?

Pulmonary and cerebral thrombosis (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year). 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 2018.
