Trial summary

Currently, adrenal venous sampling (AVS) serves as the gold standard for subtyping of PA. Right adrenal vein catheterization is often difficult due to unfavorable anatomy of the vein including small vein size, short length, caudal direction for the transfemoral approach, and rare drainage to the accessory hepatic… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Adrenal Venous Sampling Via an Antecubital Approach: A Multicenter Study

Currently, adrenal venous sampling (AVS) serves as the gold standard for subtyping of PA. Right adrenal vein catheterization is often difficult due to unfavorable anatomy of the vein including small vein size, short length, caudal direction for the transfemoral approach, and rare drainage to the accessory hepatic vein. All of these factors limit the widespread use of this approach. Given that the right adrenal vein is angled caudally in most patients, AVS via an antecubital approach was performed since January 2012. The purpose of this multicenter retrospective study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of AVS via the antecubital approach.

Read the detailed description

Primary aldosteronism (PA) is recognized as the most common cause of secondary hypertension, with a prevalence of approximately 10% among unselected hypertensive populations. Subtype diagnosis is crucial because unilateral primary aldosteronism can be treated by laparoscopic adrenalectomy or open surgery, which may result in a cure or significant improvement of blood pressure, thus decreases the incidence of cardio-cerebrovascular complications. Currently, adrenal venous sampling (AVS) serves as the gold standard for subtyping of PA. Given that the right adrenal vein is angled caudally in most patients, AVS via an antecubital approach was performed since January 2012 at the Fuwai Hospital. So far, there have been more than fifteen hospitals to have some experience on AVS via antecubital approach with investigators' helps. The purpose of this multicenter retrospective study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of AVS via the antecubital approach.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hyperaldosteronism and Angiography, run by Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Fuwai Hospital at 10 sites in China.

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 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The success rate of bilateral adrenal sampling (time frame: From January 1st 2012 to December 31st 2018). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03778645, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
