About this study

Official title: Respiratory Monitoring During Right Heart Catheterization to Differentiate Between Various Types of Pulmonary Hypertension; The Effects of the Cardiovascular System on the Lung Mechanical Properties

Respiratory monitoring during right heart catheterization to differentiate between various types of pulmonary hypertension; The effects of the cardiovascular system on the lung mechanical properties.

Read the detailed description

Differentiation between different kinds of pulmonary hypertension (PHTN) requires right heart catheterization. Monitoring heart failure patients is challenging in many. The study will enroll patients undergoing right heart catheterization (RHC) for the evaluation of heart failure and PHTN, based on the regular clinical practice. The regular indices as the right ventricle pressure (RVP), pulmonary artery pressure (PAP), pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP), and cardiac output will be measured with the Swan Ganz Catheter and recorded.

Noninvasive measurement of the respiratory flow will be acquired by a medical approved flow-meter that is mounted on a simple plastic breathing mask.

Non-invasive system that includes three accelerometers that are attached to the chest and epigastrium of the patient will be used to measure respiratory chest wall dynamics.

Through evaluating the correlation between the invasive and non-invasive measurements the study intends to prove the ability of the non-invasive system to provide the required information.

    Measured: only during the procedure of right heart catheterization

  3. Chest wall acceleration

    local tidal displacement

    Measured: only during the procedure of right heart catheterization

Secondary outcomes (2)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Hypertension and Heart Failure, run by Rambam Health Care Campus at 1 site in Israel.

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 28 Aug 2019. 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 Israel. 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 Yair Feld, MD (+972-47772181, y_feld@rmc.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pulmonary artery pressure (time frame: only during the procedure of right heart catheterization). The study lists 3 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 28 Aug 2019.
