About this study

Official title: Pulmonary Embolism Short-term Clinical Outcomes Registry (PE-SCOR)

The overall goal of this clinical research study is to prospectively assess primary outcomes related to pulmonary embolism (PE) that occur immediately (within 5 days) and within 30 days. The secondary goal is to compare validated prediction models and a modified European Society of Cardiology (ESC) approach that is primarily right ventricle dysfunction (RVD) driven with clinical risk assessment being secondary, and with primary outcomes of clinical deterioration within 5 days.

Read the detailed description

The investigators wish to develop the Pulmonary Embolism Short-term Clinical Outcomes Registry (PE-SCOR). The investigators also wish to determine the incidence of death and circulatory and respiratory deterioration, and administration of reperfusion therapy within 5 days in PE patients. The study will also evaluate the sensitivity, specificity and positive and negative predictive values of each RVD assessment option. The investigators will also derive a prediction model for PE patients for the primary outcome within five days. Finally, investigators will determine the functional outcomes of PE patients 30 days after PE.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical Deterioration

    Presence of any one clinical deterioration variable: death, circulatory or respiratory dysfunction, reperfusion interventions.

    Measured: 5 days

  2. Right ventricular dysfunction (RVD)

    Presence of any one indicator of RVD: any one goal directed echocardiography finding of RVD (right ventricle (RV) enlargement or, leftward deviation of the interventricular septum, or RV systolic dysfunction by longitudinal movement of the tricuspid annulus of the RV free wall), CT right ventricle : left ventricle ratio greater or equal to 1, positive troponin or B-type Natriuretic Peptide, EKG injury and ischemia patterns of RVD

    Measured: Index visit

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Functional Outcome

    Pulmonary Embolism Quality of Life (PEmb-QoL) questionnaire

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Pulmonary Embolism Complications

    Presence of any one variable: recurrence of pulmonary embolism, subsequent hospitalizations, major and minor bleeding

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Embolism, run by Wake Forest University Health Sciences at 6 sites 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 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 26 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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?

Clinical Deterioration (time frame: 5 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 26 Apr 2022.
