Trial summary

The goal of this prospective randomized controlled study is to investigate the effect of pause of advancement of the Swan-Ganz catheter, which is to check whether the Swan-Ganz catheter arrive exactly at the right ventricle or not, on success rate of final placement and required time in Swan-Ganz catheterization.

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Pause at the Right Ventricle on Success Rate of Final Placement in Swan-Ganz Catheterization

The goal of this prospective randomized controlled study is to investigate the effect of pause of advancement of the Swan-Ganz catheter, which is to check whether the Swan-Ganz catheter arrive exactly at the right ventricle or not, on success rate of final placement and required time in Swan-Ganz catheterization.

The question which the investigators are trying to answer is: Continuous advancement of Swan-Ganz catheter without intended pause in the right ventricle to check whether the Swan-Ganz catheter arrive exactly at the right ventricle will decrease the trial number and required time to success final placement of Swan-Ganz catheter?

Read the detailed description

Many clinicians pause advancement of Swan-Ganz catheter to check whether the Swan-Ganz catheter arrive exactly at the right ventricle or not.

The hypothesis of this study is that the intended pause during advancement of Swan-Ganz catheter in the right ventricle induce failure in advancing of it into the pulmonary artery, and that it increase the required time for final placement of it into the pulmonary artery.

Being tested
with pause, without pause

What participants receive

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

  • with pauseProcedure or surgery

    When the practitioner or expert investigator recognize that the tip of Swan-Ganz catheter arrive in the right ventricle, the practitioner pause the advancement for 10 sec. Next, the practitioner re-advance it to the pulmonary artery.

  • without pauseProcedure or surgery

    When the practitioner or expert investigator recognize that the tip of Swan-Ganz catheter arrive in the right ventricle, the practitioner advance it continuously without pause to the pulmonary artery.

What is being measured

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

  1. trial number (n)

    trial number to success placement of Swan-Ganz catheter placement into the pulmonary artery.

    Measured: during Swan-Ganz catheterization procedure

    Success rate in placement of Swan-Ganz catheter placement into the pulmonary artery

    Measured: during Swan-Ganz catheterization procedure

  3. required time (seconds)

    total time to success Swan-Ganz catheter placement into the pulmonary artery

    Measured: during Swan-Ganz catheterization procedure

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. incidence of arrhythmia (n)

    incidence of arrhythmia due to Swan-Ganz catheterization

    Measured: during Swan-Ganz catheterization procedure

  2. direction of placement of Swan-Ganz catheter (n)

    direction of placement of Swan-Ganz catheter between the right pulmoary artery and the left pulmonary artery

    Measured: during Swan-Ganz catheterization procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing with pause and without pause in people with Swan-Ganz Catheter Insertion, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 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 1 May 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 South Korea. 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?

Contact Jung-Man Lee, M.D.,PhD. (+82-2-870-2513, jungman007@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

trial number (n) (time frame: during Swan-Ganz catheterization procedure). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 May 2019.
