Trial summary

The overall objective of this pilot analysis is to characterize the hemodynamic changes that occur during implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) in patients with advanced heart failure - specifically, how right ventricular function is compromised as a result of LVAD implantation.

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients with advanced HF who are scheduled to undergo LVAD implantation with either the Heartmate 2, Heartmate 3 (Abbott, Abbott Park, IL) or HVAD (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MD) LVADs

Who may be able to join

  • individuals ≥ 18 years of age with severe heart failure (HF) and who have been approved by the advanced HF selection committee for LVAD implantation.

Who cannot join

  • Patients with pre-existing right ventricular (RV) dysfunction/failure, defined as:
  • Imaging evidence of moderate-severe RV dysfunction on echocardiography
  • Hemodynamic evidence of RV dysfunction with:
  • a right-atrial pressure (RAP): pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) ratio of ≥ 0.67 (note: this index compares pressures on the right [RAP] and left [PCWP] side of the heart;
  • an RAP/PCWP ratio ≥ 0.67 provides hemodynamic evidence of RV dysfunction.
  • Clinical evidence of preexisting RV dysfunction, as indicated by significant (3-4+ peripheral edema) and/or elevated jugular venous pressures on clinical examination.
Show all 9Show fewer
  • Patients with end-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis
  • Patients requiring temporary hemodynamic support prior to LVAD implantation with temporary LVADs, and/or veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenators ("ECMO").
  • Planned concurrent implantation of right ventricular assist device

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Cardiovascular hemodynamics (invasive and noninvasive)

    Cardiovascular hemodynamics will be measured both invasively and noninvasively as standard-of-care during LVAD implantation in the Operating Room (OR), and immediately afterwards in the CT-ICU unit prior to discharge.

    Measured: During LVAD implant and for 12-24 hours during ICU admission

  2. Change in Heart Rate (HR)

    Changes in HR will be evaluated during LVAD implantation in the OR, and immediately afterwards in the CT-ICU unit prior to discharge.

    Measured: During LVAD implant and for 12-24 hours during ICU admission

  3. Change in Blood Pressure (BP)

    Changes in BP will be evaluated during LVAD implantation in the OR, and immediately afterwards in the CT-ICU unit prior to discharge.

    Measured: During LVAD implant and for 12-24 hours during ICU admission

  4. Change in Right Atrial (RA) pressure

    Changes in RA pressure will be evaluated during LVAD implantation in the OR, and immediately afterwards in the CT-ICU unit prior to discharge.

    Measured: During LVAD implant and for 12-24 hours during ICU admission

  5. Change in pulmonary pressure

    Pulmonary pressure changes will be evaluated during LVAD implantation in the OR, and immediately afterwards in the CT-ICU unit prior to discharge.

    Measured: During LVAD implant and for 12-24 hours during ICU admission

  6. Change in Cardiac output

    Cardiac output changes will be evaluated during LVAD implantation in the OR, and immediately afterwards in the CT-ICU unit prior to discharge.

    Measured: During LVAD implant and for 12-24 hours during ICU admission

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in Right ventricular function

    Right ventricular function will be evaluated during LVAD implantation in the OR, and immediately afterwards in the CT-ICU unit prior to discharge.

    Measured: During LVAD implant and for 12-24 hours during ICU admission

  2. Change in Brain blood flow

    Brain blood flow will be evaluated during LVAD implantation in the OR, and immediately afterwards in the CT-ICU unit prior to discharge.

    Measured: During LVAD implant and for 12-24 hours during ICU admission

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure and Circulatory Disorders Postprocedural Complication, run by University of Colorado, Denver 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 25 Sep 2020. 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. 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?

Change in Cardiovascular hemodynamics (invasive and noninvasive) (time frame: During LVAD implant and for 12-24 hours during ICU admission). The study lists 6 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.

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 25 Sep 2020.
