About this study

Official title: Remote Ischemic Preconditioning for Renal Protection in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Interventions

Severe aortic stenosis remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality of the elderly affecting approximately 3% of elderly patients with an increasing number of patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve interventions. As part of pre-procedural planning these patients undergo CT scans and receive contrast during the procedure. These patients often have baseline renal insufficiency and are high risk of contrast induced nephropathy despite pre-hydration techniques. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of this simple and safe procedure in preventing renal injury in this particular population.

Being tested
Remote ischemic preconditioning, Control

What is being measured

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

  1. Renal function as a measured by serum creatinine

    Assess the effects on post procedure renal injury. Lab work will be obtained in the form of a basic metabolic panel evaluating the creatinine level. A baseline basic metabolic panel will be obtained prior to scheduled procedure to evaluate baseline renal function and then 48-72 hours post procedure, the optimal time to see the effects of contrast induced nephropathy to evaluate the degree of acute kidney injury. The baseline and post procedure measurements of renal function will be compared between both arms of the study.

    Measured: 48-72 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Clinical Outcomes

    The patient's electronic medical record will be reviewed at 6 months post procedure. The investigators will be assessing renal function at 6 months if a creatinine (lab) was ordered by the primary provider for any reason.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Clinical Outcomes

    The investigators will be reviewing the medical records of participants for evidence of post procedure adverse events including death, MI, stroke and hospital readmission

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Remote ischemic preconditioning in people with Aortic Valve Stenosis and Renal Insufficiency, run by Henry Ford Health System at 1 site in United States.

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 9 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 14 Dec 2022. 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 United States. 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?

Renal function as a measured by serum creatinine (time frame: 48-72 hours). 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 14 Dec 2022.
