Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Up to 21 days
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • Age < 22 days
  • and either: a) asymptomatic newborn undergoing SpO2 screening for CCHD, or 2b) newborn prenatally or postnatally diagnosed/suspected with CHD.

Who cannot join

  • For Controls: Echocardiogram completed prior to enrollment as the newborn would then no longer be considered "asymptomatic undergoing SpO2 screening for CCHD"

About this study

The purpose of this research is to evaluate and create a new clinical prediction model for CCHD screening that combines non-invasive measurements of oxygenation and perfusion.

Read the detailed description

This study will create and test an enhanced critical congenital heart defect (CCHD) screen that combines non-invasive measurements of oxygenation and perfusion in two ways. The first will use current equipment without automated interpretation and the second will require additional software/device but will automate the interpretation. To work towards development of those two algorithms in this stage of the study, the study team will download oxygen saturation (SpO2) and perfusion index (PIx) measurements from newborns with and without congenital heart disease (CHD) and apply statistical tests to the data afterwards to identify parameters to include in the newly developed screening algorithms. The overall objective is to create an automated screening algorithm to improve acyanotic CCHD detection, preventing morbidity and mortality associated with diagnoses missed by SpO2 screening. The central hypothesis is that the addition of non-invasive perfusion measurements to SpO2 will be superior to SpO2-alone screening for detection of acyanotic CCHD. The data collected during this study will be used to develop the two algorithms and the algorithms will be compared to the standard of care using statistical tests on the data after the fact (k-fold validation). The newly developed algorithms will not be tested in-situ on patients during this study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristics (AUROC) of critical congenital heart defect (CCHD) screening algorithm for CCHD with systemic obstruction from coarctation of the aorta or interrupted aortic arch

    A CCHD screening algorithm will be created by simultaneously measuring oxygen saturation, perfusion index, and pulse oximetry waveform analysis from right upper and any lower extremity in newborns with and without CHD. Investigators will use cross-validation to test the newly developed algorithms and estimate AUROC for the specified types of heart defects. For purposes of defining primary and secondary criterion variables, the CHD will be considered present or absent at enrollment when the infant is less than 22 days of age according to the latest diagnostic assessment available for the infant (echocardiogram and/or physical examination). Because some CHDs can be diagnosed at later dates despite earlier negative diagnostic evaluations, investigators will reconfirm the presence or absence of the outcome at a minimum of 6 weeks of age for all patients except those who die or are lost to follow-up.

    Measured: At enrollment

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. AUROC of CCHD screening algorithm for any critical congenital heart defect (CCHD)

    AUROC of CCHD screening algorithm for any critical congenital heart defect (CCHD). CCHD will be defined as an anatomical heart defect that requires surgical or catheter-based corrective/palliative procedure in the first 30 days after birth

    Measured: At 30 days of life

  2. AUROC of CCHD screening algorithm for critical congenital heart defect (CCHD) with any systemic obstruction

    AUROC of CCHD screening algorithm for critical congenital heart defect (CCHD) with any systemic obstruction

    Measured: At enrollment

  3. AUROC of CCHD screening algorithm for any congenital heart defect (CHD)

    AUROC of CCHD screening algorithm for any congenital heart defect (CHD). CHD will be defined as any anatomical heart with the exception of isolated patent ductus arteriosus and/or atrial septal defect/patent foramen ovale

    Measured: At enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SpO2 and PIx Measurement in people with Congenital Heart Disease, run by University of California, Davis at 6 sites 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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristics (AUROC) of critical congenital heart defect (CCHD) screening algorithm for CCHD with systemic obstruction from coarctation of the aorta or interrupted aortic arch (time frame: At enrollment). 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 NCT04056104, 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 3 Feb 2022.
