Study population: According to reference, the area under the ROC curve of 3d-STI strain peak and strain peaking time for the diagnosis of coronary heart disease is about 0.65.In this study, it is expected that the combined diagnosis model can increase the area under the ROC curve to the level of 0.85, and the standard deviation of the area under the ROC curve is estimated to be 0.5. In order to get 85% assurance, we plan to include 827 subjects.

About this study

Official title: Study on the Value of Three-dimensional Speckle Tracking Technique in the Diagnosis and Follow-up of Coronary Heart Disease

For a long time, it has been hoped that doctors could screen and diagnosis of coronary heart disease through non-invasive imaging techniques, so as to maximize the benefit/risk ratio of patients. This trial is to explore the screening and diagnostic value of three-dimensional speckle tracking technology for coronary heart disease, and the evaluation value of 3D speckle track image(3D-STI) technology for cardiac function improvement after coronary intervention, and to seek reliable, accurate and quantifiable non-invasive imaging examination for the diagnosis, follow-up and prognosis of coronary heart disease.

In this study, coronary angiography is taken as the "gold standard", and 3d-STI echocardiography technology is proposed to combine with clinical characteristics of subjects for joint diagnosis, so as to evaluate the value of 3d-sti technology in the diagnosis of coronary heart disease.

Patients were followed up with echocardiography after interventional treatment to explore the feasibility of 3D-STI technology in evaluating cardiac function improvement.

What is being measured

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

  1. Left ventricular myocardial viability

    By measuring the strain and time to peak, the left ventricular myocardial viability was finally evaluated. Left ventricular local ventricular viable myocardium was quantitatively analyzed in patients .Aimed to detect the myocardial ischaemia and viability. The data of strain and time to peak were measured using the three-dimensional speckle tracking model.

    In apical four-chamber view, make sure the endocardium, mitral valve ring and apex imaging is clear, mark the left and right mitral valve ring and apex spot . After automatic ultrasonic echo spot tracked, software can delineate endocardial curve, and automaticaly calculate the left ventricular myocardial segments strain and time to peak.

    The strain peaks of each segment (including 16 segments) of the myocardium of the left ventricle included four strain peaks: RS, CS, LS and AS

    Measured: half an hour

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The value of 3D-STI technology on the improvement of left ventricular myocardial function

    During the 6-month follow-up, 3D-STI technique was used to evaluate the improvement of left ventricular myocardial function compared with conventional parameters like LVEF and NYHA. 3D-STI parameters are the same : strain and peak time .

    Measured: half a year

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Apr 2019. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Left ventricular myocardial viability (time frame: half an hour). 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 NCT03905200, which also lists 4 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 5 Apr 2019.
