About this study
Official title: Risk Factors for Complications After Carotid Endarterectomy: A Multicenter International Observational Study
This study may determine the incidence of complications that occur after patients undergo a surgery called Carotid Endarterectomy (CEA), which is a surgery that aims to decrease the risk of strokes in patients with a condition called carotid stenosis. Medical records will be accessed to find any information pertaining to postoperative complications. Additionally, it may determine the cognitive dysfunction of patients undergoing CEA, assessed by Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE).
Read the detailed description
This is a multicenter prospective observational study; data will be collected from two sites: the lead site in Columbus, Ohio, USA and an international site in Girona, Spain for a total of 354 patients. The objective of this study is to determine the incidence of complications that occur after patients undergo a surgery called Carotid Endarterectomy (CEA), which is a surgery that aims to decrease the risk of strokes in patients with a condition called carotid stenosis. Patients who undergo CEA are at increased risk of cardiovascular complications because of the high incidence of coexisting heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes. Common complications that occur after CEA are wound hematoma (collection of blood at the wound) and intracerebral hemorrhage (bleeding in the brain). Medical records will be accessed to find any information pertaining to postoperative complications. Another objective of this study is to determine the cognitive dysfunction of patients undergoing CEA. This will be measured by a Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE) which will occur in person before the surgery and 30 days after the surgery over the phone. This study may provide data that will help identify how to optimize recovery for future CEA patients.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Postoperative Complications and Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction, run by Ohio State University 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 2 inclusion and 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Oct 2023. 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, Spain. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Lack of funding and resources). Results are not available in the source record.
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?
Complication rate (time frame: 30 days). 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 NCT03788980, which also lists 16 linked publications.
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 3 Oct 2023.
