Trial summary

Since the pulmonary artery hypertension is defined based on MPAP and the two previous formulae relating MPAP and PAT were derived in western population, the investigator planned to conduct a prospective study to derive a new formula for measuring MPAP from PAT in Indian population and compare the accuracy of all the… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Derivation of New Formula Relating Pulmonary Acceleration Time and Mean Pulmonary Artery Pressure in Indian Population and Comparison With Previous Formulas

Since the pulmonary artery hypertension is defined based on MPAP and the two previous formulae relating MPAP and PAT were derived in western population, the investigator planned to conduct a prospective study to derive a new formula for measuring MPAP from PAT in Indian population and compare the accuracy of all the three formulae

Read the detailed description

After obtaining ethics committee approval and informed patient consent, minimum 25 patients > 18 years of age who are undergoing cardiac surgery with the invasive monitoring of pulmonary artery pressure will be enrolled in this study.The demographics and the preoperative echocardiographic measurement will be noted. In the operating room, once the intravenous access is obtained, central venous catheterisation and pulmonary artery catheterisation will be done as per the institutional protocol. Once the Transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) is performed patient will be induced with opioids, intravenous or inhalational agents, and muscle relaxant according to the patient clinical and hemodynamic condition. Once the patient airway is secured with tracheal tube, transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) will be performed before and after bypass, which is routine in all patients undergoing cardiac surgery in the institution. Echocardiographic images will be analysed by two separate echocardiographers to detect inter-individual variability. Patient blood pressure and heart rate will be maintained within 20% of their baseline value throughout surgery. Based on the patient condition at the end of surgery, extubation will be done in the operating room or in intensive care unit (ICU) after a period of elective ventilation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Hypertension, run by Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh at 1 site in India.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jun 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 India. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact GANESH KUMAR M, MD (8968170779, mganeshkumar19@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pulmonary acceleration time (time frame: Till post-extubation, an average of 2 days). 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 2 Jun 2017.
