About this study

Muscular dystrophies are neurologic disease with higher morbidity and mortality. Cardiac function and respiratory muscles can be affected, in addition with skeletal muscle deficiency . Lung function is classically assessed with functionnal pulmonary tests (FPT) . Ultrasound recently emerged as a non-invasive tool to assess diaphragm function.

The aims of the study are:

  • to provide the spectrum of diaphragm ultrasound in patients with muscular dystrophies
  • to assess the correlation between diaphragm ultrasound and FPT
  • to assess the correlation between diaphragm ultrasound and cardiac function

What is being measured

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

  1. diaphragm ultrasound motion

    using echography

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. correlation between diaphragm motion (mm) and forced vital capacity(ml)

    using echography and FPT

    Measured: 1 year

  2. correlation between diaphragm motion (mm) and inspiratory capacity (ml)

    using echography and FPT

    Measured: 1 year

  3. diaphragm thickness (mm)

    using echography

    Measured: 1 year

  4. correlation between diaphargm thickness and maximal inspiratory pressure (cmH20)

    using echography and FPT

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Muscular Dystrophies, run by Centre d'Investigation Clinique et Technologique 805 at 1 site in France.

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 8 inclusion and 3 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 Aug 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 France. 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?

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?

diaphragm ultrasound motion (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT04045158, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Aug 2019.
