About this study

Official title: Validation Study of Cardiac Linear and Torsional Contractility Measurements With a New Technology: Multi Dimensional Kineticardiography (MKCG)

This study aims to validate the possibility to track cardiac contractility changes with a new technology called 'Heart Kinetic' (HK). HK measurements will be realized and compared echocardiography.

Conditions
Healthy
Being tested
Cardiac contractility assessments with Kino-cardiograph, Cardiac assessment repeatability with Kino-cardiograph

What participants receive

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

  • Cardiac contractility assessments with Kino-cardiographDevice

    Cardiac contractility will be assessed with Kino-cardiograph device. Echocardiography will also be used for the experimental arm

  • Cardiac assessment repeatability with Kino-cardiographDevice

    Cardiac contractility will be assessed with Kino-cardiograph device only, at different times of the day to assess the repeatability of the measures.

Study groups in NCT03107351
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
repeatability measuresSham comparatorIn this arm, healthy subjects will undergo repeated measures at different times of the day.
Receives: Device: Cardiac assessment repeatability with Kino-cardiograph
Contractility changes measuresExperimentalIn this arm, healthy subjects will have their cardiac contractility increased in a controlled way and assessed with both HK and echocardiography.
Receives: Device: Cardiac contractility assessments with Kino-cardiograph

What is being measured

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

  1. HK reproducibility validation

    Validate the reproducibility of HK measurements in a clinical environment.

    Measured: day 1

  2. Cardiac contractility tracking with HK

    Proof that the HK technology can track physiological cardiac changes while comparing with gold standard echocardiography and inducing a cardiac contractility change with dobutamine infusion.

    Measured: day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cardiac contractility assessments with Kino-cardiograph and Cardiac assessment repeatability with Kino-cardiograph in people with Healthy, run by Erasme University Hospital at 1 site in Belgium.

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 6 inclusion and 6 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 9 Feb 2018. 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 Belgium. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

HK reproducibility validation (time frame: day 1). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03107351, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Feb 2018.
