Trial summary

Patients with chest pain may have postponed or missed diagnosis of acute coronary events due to relatively late detection of troponin elevation. The study will investigate a new diagnostic method for early detection of even minimal troponin elevation in patients admitted with chest pain. Read more about this study

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Blood testing in a newly described methodOther

    To exploit detection strategy termed "Magnetic Modulation Biosensing", or MMB) to develop a novel, low-cost platform that can detect biomarkers, such as proteins and specific DNA sequences, rapidly and directly from real samples at very low concentrations.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to detect troponin elevation

    Measured: sixty to 120 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chest Pain, run by Rambam Health Care Campus.

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 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 28 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Time to detect troponin elevation (time frame: sixty to 120 minutes). 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 28 Mar 2019.
