About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Autonomic Function in Individuals With Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS), a Pilot Study.

Based on survey data, individuals with Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS) often experience symptoms of autonomic dysfunction however there are no reported studies in which these patients have had objective testing of the autonomic nervous system. This is a pilot study in which patients with CdLS will undergo the standard clinical testing for autonomic dysfunction with a autonomic reflex screen and thermoregulatory sweat test.

What participants receive

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

  • Autonomic Dysfunction TestingOther

    The participants with CdLS will complete the COMPASS-31 survey and will complete standard clinical testing for autonomic dysfunction including an autonomic reflex screen (tilt table and quantitative sudomotor axon reflex testing) and thermoregulatory sweat test (TST).

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients who tolerated 70 degree head up tilt table test

    Patients tolerating at least 5 minutes of tilt table

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Number of patients who show evidence of dysautonomia

    Dysautonomia measured by excessive heart rate (>40 bpm) on a tilt table test or reduced sweating on a thermoregulatory sweat test.

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Number of patients who tolerated thermoregulatory sweat test

    Patients tolerating at least 15 minutes of thermoregulatory sweat test

    Measured: 1 year

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?

Number of patients who tolerated 70 degree head up tilt table test (time frame: 1 year). 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.
