Trial summary

The left ventricular torsion during systole and diastole is a normal dynamic mechanism which participates in the ejection and the filling of the left ventricle. Postnatal hemodynamic modifications are major and probably affect this mechanism. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Longitudinal Study by 2D-speckle-tracking Echocardiography of the Ventricular Wall Motion During Postnatal Adaptation

The left ventricular torsion during systole and diastole is a normal dynamic mechanism which participates in the ejection and the filling of the left ventricle. Postnatal hemodynamic modifications are major and probably affect this mechanism. The aim of this study is to compare the left ventricular twist in healthy newborns, between their first days of life and their third month of life, using the 2D-speckle tracking echocardiography.

Read the detailed description

The left ventricular torsion during systole and diastole is a normal dynamic mechanism which participates in the ejection and the filling of the left ventricle. Postnatal hemodynamic modifications are major and probably affect this mechanism.

The main objective is to compare the left ventricular twist mechanism in healthy newborns, at birth and at their third month of life, using the peak LV twist as primary endpoint. Secondarily, we compare other LV rotation and deformation parameters during the same period: peak LV torsion, peak LV twist rate, peak LV untwist rate, circumferential strain and radial strain. Finally, we compare the endo- and epicardial LV deformation, using the inner and outer circumferential strain as endpoints.

This is a longitudinal, prospective and monocentric study in the Grenoble-Alpes University Hospital between April 2018 and September 2018.

The number of required subjects is 30 with a statistical power of 80% and a p-value of 0,05

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Echocardiography in people with Healthy, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 1 site in France.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 12 Dec 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 France. 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?

Left ventricular Twist (time frame: 3 months). 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 12 Dec 2018.
