Study groups in NCT03411512
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CHDNewborns with structural congenital heart defects. The exclusion criteria were pulmonary or neurological disease, perinatal asphyxia, acute illness, prematurity and congenital abnormality other than CHD.
Healthy controlsThe control group comprised of healthy matched newborns without a diagnosed CHD.

What is being measured

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

  1. rSO2

    regional tissue oxygenation assessed by NIRS

    Measured: RSO2 values were obtained after 30 minute calm down period to enable stable recordings on each channel by averaging five minutes recorded values.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Defects, Congenital, run by Petja Fister, MD, PhD at 1 site in Slovenia.

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 1 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 30 Jan 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 Slovenia. 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?

rSO2 (time frame: RSO2 values were obtained after 30 minute calm down period to enable stable recordings on each channel by averaging five minutes recorded values.). 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 30 Jan 2018.
