About this study

Official title: Comparison of Coagulation Parameters in Arterial and Venous Blood Measured Using the Quantra System

The Quantra™ System is a novel point-of-care diagnostic device designed to perform whole blood coagulation analysis. This study compares Quantra measurements determined in arterial versus venous blood samples obtained from patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Read the detailed description

The Quantra System is a fully integrated and automated in vitro diagnostic device which utilizes SEER Sonorheometry, an ultrasound-based technology, to characterize the dynamic changes in the viscoelastic properties of a blood sample during coagulation and clot lysis. Viscoelastic testing performed using existing technologies is typically performed on arterial samples obtained from patients undergoing surgical procedures, although reference ranges for these tests have been established for venous blood only.

The aim of this study is to evaluate potential differences between Quantra measurements determined in arterial versus venous blood samples obtained from patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of Clot Time and Clot Stiffness results between arterial and venous samples

    Coagulation function assessed by Quantra at 2 time points (Baseline and either during cardiac bypass or post-bypass)

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Comparison of Quantra results to standard coagulation test results in venous samples

    Coagulation function assessed by Quantra and standard coagulation tests at 2 time points (Baseline and either during cardiac bypass or post-bypass)

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

  2. Comparison of Quantra results to comparable ROTEM results in venous samples

    Coagulation function assessed by Quantra and ROTEM at 2 time points (Baseline and either during cardiac bypass or post-bypass)

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Surgery, run by HemoSonics LLC 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 Apr 2017. 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?

Comparison of Clot Time and Clot Stiffness results between arterial and venous samples (time frame: Up to 24 hours). 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 Apr 2017.
