About this study

Official title: Hemodynamic Assessment Throughout Diuretic Treatment in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure

This study will assess the ability of a novel optical measurement system to determine changes in the hemodynamic status of heart failure patients admitted to the hospital with a primary diagnosis of acute decompensated heart failure. Patients will be measured with both the novel measurement system and reference devices that are FDA-cleared for hemodynamic measurements. The measurements from the novel system will be compared to reference variables describing hemodynamic and congestive status, including stroke volume, central venous pressure, and serum levels of NT-proBNP.

Read the detailed description

This study will assess the ability of a novel optical measurement system to determine changes in the hemodynamic status of heart failure patients admitted to the hospital with a primary diagnosis of acute decompensated heart failure. Patients will be measured with both the novel measurement system and reference devices that are FDA-cleared for hemodynamic measurements. The measurements from the novel system will be compared to reference variables describing hemodynamic and congestive status, including stroke volume, central venous pressure, and serum levels of NT-proBNP.

All patients enrolled in the study will first provide written informed consent to participate and then the research coordinator will check that the subject meets all study inclusion criteria and does not meet any of the study exclusion criteria. Enrolled subjects will undergo up to six (6) hemodynamic assessment sessions lasting less than 90 minutes each over the course of their hospitalization. There will be at least eight (8) hours between assessment sessions.

Each assessment session includes recording of the subject's weight, measurements with the reference devices, and measurements with the novel optical system. During the session, the subject will be assessed in the supine, sitting, and standing positions. NT-proBNP measurements will be done at the start of study participation and the end. A market research questionnaire will be administered to the subject following the first measurement session.

What participants receive

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

  • Noninvasive Hemodynamic Measurement SystemDiagnostic test

    Ability of the noninvasive hemodynamic measurement system to determine changes in the hemodynamic status of heart failure patients admitted to the hospital with a primary diagnosis of acute decompensated heart failure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Accuracy of Estimated Changes in Stroke Volume

    Comparison of Stroke Volume Measurement (units of ml) from the optical measurement system with paired Stroke Volume Measurement (ml) from the reference device. Accuracy will be measured in percentage error and Bland-Altman limits of agreement.

    Measured: Retrospective up to 6 months after study completion

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Accuracy of Central Venous Pressure Measurement

    Comparison of Central Venous Pressure Measurement (units of cmH2O) from the optical measurement system with paired Central Venous Pressure Measurement (cmH2O) from the reference device. Accuracy will be measured in percentage error and Bland-Altman limits of agreement.

    Measured: Retrospective up to 6 months after study completion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Congestive Heart Failure, run by Rodin Scientific LLC at 2 sites in 2 countries.

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 11 inclusion and 16 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 26 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States, Croatia. 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?

Accuracy of Estimated Changes in Stroke Volume (time frame: Retrospective up to 6 months after study completion). 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 26 Mar 2019.
