  • Ages 65 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients indicated for a standard physical examination
  • Patients ≥65 years old
  • For patients in Phase I, one of the following additional inclusion criteria must be present:
  • Patient presenting with a new murmur, or history of a murmur but no prior echo within 3 years of the exam

About this study

Official title: SHAPE: Seeing the Heart With AI Powered Echo

Establish transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) exams performed with Bay Labs EchoGPS guidance technology can be used in a primary care setting to accurately identify cardiac disease. In Phase I TTE exams with EchoGPS will be compared to findings from a commercially available, FDA 510(k)-cleared reference device (Terason uSmart 3200t, point-of-care ultrasound) without EchoGPS assistance technology. Study is non-significant risk (NSR).

What participants receive

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

  • Limited EchocardiogramDiagnostic test

    STUDY SOFTWARE non-significant risk (NSR) Bay Labs EchoGPS software interfaced with the Terason uSmart 3200t FDA 510(k)-cleared, commercially available ultrasound EchoGPS software communicates with the ultrasound image formation engine of the 510(k)-cleared Terason uSmart 3200t through an application programming interface (API). EchoGPS will be used to provide visual guidance, feedback and interpretation assistance to users during image acquisition. For this study, CMAs will use EchoGPS to perform point-of-care echocardiogram examinations.

Study groups in NCT03705650
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Medicare Primary Care Provider (PCP) PatientsExperimentalThis is a non-randomized study of non-significant risk (NSR) that will be conducted at Northwestern's Central Dupage Hospital. Medicare patients > 65 years who are scheduled for a routine physical exam with their PCP that meet inclusion and exclusion criteria will be asked to participate in this study. Consenting patients will be scheduled for 2 back to back ultrasound scans including 5 standard 2D echocardiogram views each. The first scan will be performed by a non-ultrasound specialist using EchoGPS experimental guidance technology and the second control exam will be performed by a trained sonographer using a cleared conventional ultrasound platform.

What is being measured

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

  1. % of diagnostic quality clips acquired by a non-specialist using experimental guidance software, with quality assessed using the American College of Emergency Physician (ACEP) Suggested Quality Assurance Grading Scale

    All of the echo views (or "clips") acquired by non-specialists during the study will be scored for image quality (IQ) by clinicians using the 1-5 ACEP quality grading scale. In this scale, a score of 1 represents the poorest IQ and 5 the highest. Images must have a score of 3 or higher to be considered diagnostic quality. Diagnostic quality images (3+) meet at least minimal criteria for diagnosis to be supported and are therefore clinically acceptable.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of minutes for non-specialists to perform studies using EchoGPS experimental guidance software

    Number of minutes for non-specialists to perform studies using EchoGPS software as compared to that of the time for expert sonographer's control studies using FDA 510(k)-cleared, commercially available ultrasound platform. The time of Study Exam will be compared to that of Control Exam on a per subject basis (paired difference) for Phase I of the study.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Limited Echocardiogram in people with Cardiac Disease, run by Sara Guttas 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 6 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 23 Mar 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?

% of diagnostic quality clips acquired by a non-specialist using experimental guidance software, with quality assessed using the American College of Emergency Physician (ACEP) Suggested Quality Assurance Grading Scale (time frame: 1 year). 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 23 Mar 2020.
