Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • TOF patients who have had repair using a transannular patch.
  • Patients that present with free pulmonary insufficiency.
  • Are older than 18 years.

Who cannot join

  • Patients who have lesions predisposing to chronic volume overload (i.e. patients with significant residual postoperative ventricular septal defects (VSD), or large aorto-pulmonary collaterals or more than moderate tricuspid insufficiency) since all these hemodynamic conditions can influence the late function of the right ventricle and potentially affect the response of the right side of the heart in changes in volume status
  • Patients who had a valve sparing TOF repair and have less than free pulmonary insufficiency.
  • Patients who have significant residual right-sided obstruction (i.e. patients who have residual RVOT obstruction or significant residual branch pulmonary artery stenosis), as it is shown that residual pulmonary stenosis may protect from RV dilation and from deterioration of the RV function.
  • Patients who cannot be reconstructed with a transannular patch and/or require a right ventricle to pulmonary artery homograft for reconstruction including:
  • pulmonary atresia and VSD
  • patients with anomalous coronary crossing the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) and
Show all 15Show fewer
  • patients with TOF-absent pulmonary valve syndrome.
  • Patients with renal failure and renal insufficiency
  • Patients with uncompensated heart failure
  • Cancer patients
  • Latex allergic patients
  • Patients with diabetes
  • Pregnant females
  • Prisoners
  • Individuals who lack consent capacity

About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the correlation between fluid volume status and right ventricular volume and function, in those with free pulmonary valve insufficiency after Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to measure the changes in Right Ventricular size and function with changes in preload, using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). Based on an intensive research and clinical observations the investigators hypothesize that changes in volume status cause a statistically significant difference in the Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) measured RV End Diastolic Volume (EDV), end-systolic volume (ESV), ejection fraction (EF) and pulmonary regurgitation (PR). The investigator hypothesizes that smaller changes will occur in left ventricular LV EDV, ESV, and EF.

  1. To establish a correlation between the changes in preload volume status and RV size and function in patients with free pulmonary insufficiency (PI) after TOF repair using CMRI.
  2. To assess the effects of preload status on the measured severity of pulmonary regurgitation (PR).
  3. To assess the effects of preload status on the left ventricular (LV) size

This study will be conducted in compliance with this protocol, good clinical practice and the applicable regulatory requirements.

What participants receive

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

  • Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CMRI)Procedure or surgery

    There will be 2 CMRIs. The first one will be patient's routine clinically schedule CMRI after the patient has fasted for 12 hours.This CMRI uses contrast.

    The second CMRI will be the research CMRI after the fluid administration. This CMRI does not use contrast.

  • Central venous line placementProcedure or surgery

    An ultrasound guided central line catheter will be placed in the internal jugular vein (IJV) under local anesthesia.

  • Chest X-rayProcedure or surgery

    A chest X-ray will be performed for safety reasons to rule out pneumothorax (< 1% risk) after central line placement.

  • Fluid administrationProcedure or surgery

    Administration of 15cc/kg of normal saline for fluid hydration through peripheral IV that is placed for the MRI contrast administration.

  • Blood DrawProcedure or surgery

    One to two teaspoons of blood will be drawn for basic metabolic panel.

  • Pregnancy testProcedure or surgery

    A urine pregnancy test will be performed in female subjects.

  • ElectrocardiogramProcedure or surgery

    12 lead ECG

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CMRI), Central venous line placement and Chest X-ray in people with Tetralogy of Fallot, run by University of Wisconsin, Madison 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 3 inclusion and 15 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 14 Apr 2021. 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?

Postload volume status (time frame: 24 months). 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 14 Apr 2021.
