About this study

The uncertainty concerning the onset and the extent of cardiac remodeling in response to intensive training hinders medical evaluation by physician. A better knowledge of the physiology of cardiac adaptation to training will enable physicians to correctly determine whether observed patterns of cardiac remodeling are physiological or pathological. This prospective study proposes to assess in a trained-athlete population the cardiac remodeling in response to intensive exercise training. This study is observational, we do not interfere with athlete's training.

What participants receive

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

  • electrocardiogram and echocardiographyOther

    We retrieved all electrocardiograms and echocardiography made during the clinical examination of each athlete and each sedentary control.

    • Standard 12 lead ECG
    • Trans-thoracic echocardiography examination of cardiac function, morphology and intracardiac flow.
Study groups in NCT03076788
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
AthletesProfessional and amateur athletes examined during the medical follow-up at the medical sport centre of Caen University Hospital. The medical examination consists in a clinical exam, an electrocardiogram and an echocardiography.
Receives: Other: electrocardiogram and echocardiography
Sedentary controlsSedentary patients assessed in the cardiology unit with a normal heart function. The medical examination consists in a clinical exam, an electrocardiogram and an echocardiography.
Receives: Other: electrocardiogram and echocardiography

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of ventricular response to exercise training by echocardiography.

    1. 2D- morphological and functional parameters of both left and right ventricles:
    • end-diastolic and end-systolic dimensions (cm)
    • left ventricular mass (g)
    • ventricular end-diastolic and end-systolic areas (cm²)
    • ventricular ejection fraction (%)
    • atrial volumes (ml)
    • diastolic indices by pulsed wave Doppler and tissue Doppler (cm/s)
    • myocardial deformation by speckle tracking (%)
    1. 3D- morphological and functional parameters of both left and right ventricles:
    • ventricular full volumes (ml)
    • ejection fraction (%)
    1. Intracardiac flow measurements by color Doppler M-mode: estimation of intra ventricular pressure gradients between the base and the apex (mmHg).

    Measured: Day 1

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Evaluation of ventricular response to exercise training by electrocardiogram

    • heart rate (bpm),
    • ventricular hypertrophy (mV)
    • atrial remodeling (mV)

    Measured: Day 1

  2. Sport and medical history questionnaire

    exercise training program, medical past history, cardiovascular risk factors, treatments, doping.

    Measured: Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Remodeling, Ventricular, run by University Hospital, Caen at 1 site in France.

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 2 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 13 Feb 2024. 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 France. 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?

Evaluation of ventricular response to exercise training by echocardiography. (time frame: Day 1). 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 13 Feb 2024.
