About this study

Official title: The Role of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation in Regulation of Serum IL-6 and IL-15 in Chronic Heart Failure Patients

The purpose of the study is investigate the effects of NMES in regulation of serum IL-6 and IL-15 in chronic heart failure patients who received standard inpatient cardiac rehabilitation protocol

Read the detailed description

Majority of chronic heart failure patients became intolerance of physical training that could limit activity. Recent studies reported that Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) application could increase muscle mass, oxidative enzyme, endothelial function, VO2 peak and quality of life in chronic heart failure patient. It was hypothesized that Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) assisted muscle contraction in chronic heart failure patients will increase the activity of myokine (Interleukin-6 and Interleukin-15), that in turn will promote exercise tolerance in this patient. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of NMES in regulation of serum IL-6 and IL-15 in chronic heart failure patients who received standard inpatient cardiac rehabilitation protocol. Thirty chronic heart failure patients in cardiology ward that fulfilled inclusion criteria were randomized in two groups; the control group (standard inpatient cardiac rehabilitation protocol) and the intervention group (standard inpatient cardiac rehabilitation protocol and NMES). The intervention was done every day for seven days. Measurement of serum IL-6 and IL-15 were done before and after study, and analyzed by sandwich immunoassay with monoclonal antibody.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) in people with Chronic Heart Failure, run by Dr. Soetomo General Hospital at 1 site in Indonesia.

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 7 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 1 Nov 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 Indonesia. 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?

IL-6 and IL-15 (time frame: before and 7th day of treatment). 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 1 Nov 2018.
