About this study

The purpose of this research study is to collect data/measurements that are routinely collected in standard of care cerebral angiogram

Read the detailed description

Research for this study is to determine how the injection of contrast material influences vessel measurements, as these measurements guide device selection when interventions are warranted.

The data will be used to determine if there is a significant change in vessel diameter with intra-arterial injection of contrast material in cerebral angiography, how changes in force of contrast injection augments the significance of the changes in vessel geometry, and the extent of propagation downstream from the catheter tip that such changes in vessel diameter are detected and found to be significant, as these changes could potentially lead to less optimal device selection by providing an overestimation of true vessel diameter.

What participants receive

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

  • Standard of Care Cerebral Angiogram GroupProcedure or surgery

    Subjects will undergo the standard of care cerebral angiogram and any intervention(s) (when applicable) that were discussed with their provider, following the standard procedural protocol for the procedure at WFBMC. There are no additional interventions or changes to the planned intervention(s) that will take place by agreeing to participate in the study.

    The data collected from this procedure, following the standard of care protocol, will include the following: force of injection of contrast material for each angiographic run (peak pressure associated with injection, duration of peak, and area under pressure curve), volume of contrast utilized, images from the procedure, measurements of vessel diameter at defined distances from the catheter tip utilizing the images, catheter type, any additional device(s) (when applicable) utilized during the procedure, and if spasmolytic agents are utilized (including dose and time of administration).

What is being measured

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

  1. Peak pressure associated with injection

    The effort force of injection will be measured and recorded for each run using a standard arterial line pressure transducer setup that attaches to the guide catheter, with data acquired via Mediocollector (a program that allows for quantitative recording of data. The duration of peak pressure will be collected.

    Measured: During procedure, up to 10 minutes

  2. The duration of peak pressure

    The duration of peak pressure will be collected.

    Measured: During procedure, up to 10 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cerebral Angiogram, run by Wake Forest University Health Sciences at 1 site in United States.

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.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jan 2020. 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 United States. 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: unable to perform refinement of study procedures to better capture information needed). 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?

Peak pressure associated with injection (time frame: During procedure, up to 10 minutes). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03949023, 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 7 Jan 2020.
