About this study

Studying Carbon monoxide effects on brain vessels in healthy volunteers with magnetic resonance imaging.

Read the detailed description

In this study we will systematically investigate the headache-releasing properties of carbon monoxide as well as measure the effect of carbon monoxide on mean blood flow rate in the brain's large vessel with magnetic resonance imaging. These studies are important for understanding and further investigating the carbon monoxide's headache-releasing effect in healthy subjects.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in brain blood vessels diameters after a short CO inhalation

    To investigate changes in the circumference of intra- and extracerebral blood vessels after inhalation of carbon monoxide using magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).

    Measured: 30 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Carbon monoxide in people with Headache Disorders, run by Danish Headache Center at 1 site in Denmark.

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 3 inclusion and 12 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 Mar 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 Denmark. 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?

Changes in brain blood vessels diameters after a short CO inhalation (time frame: 30 minutes). 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 Mar 2018.
