About this study

This is an observational study in newborn term and preterm infants. The study will validate if non-invasive continuous cardiac output monitoring is feasible in newborn infants, if normative values can be constructed and what is the effect of fluid boluses and inotropes on cardiac output and peripheral vascular resistance.

Read the detailed description

This is a 3-year prospective observational study.

Principal research question:

Is non-invasive continuous cardiac output (CO) measurement a validated tool of comprehensive cardiovascular assessment in neonatal intensive care (NICU)?

Secondary research questions:

  1. Can robust normal ranges of CO be constructed for neonates undergoing cardiovascular measurement?
  2. How do neonatal interventions (fluid boluses, ventilation and inotropes) affect CO?
  3. Does the Non-invasive continuous cardiac output monitoring in children with foetal growth restriction (FGR) differ from normative CO data as above (1)?

A prospective study of stable newborn babies in the postnatal ward and sick term and preterm infants in the NICU in 36 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Haemodynamic outcome comparison to echocardiography measured CO

    Non-invasive continuous Cardiac Output (CO) measurement (mls/kg/min) during the first month of life in comparison to echocardiography measured CO (mls/kg/min)

    Measured: 36 months

  2. Changes in cardiac output

    Changes in cardiac output (CO) measurement (mls/kg/min) in relation to neonatal intervention

    Measured: 36 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Changes in clinical outcome - Survival at discharge

    Survival at discharge

    Measured: 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Output, Low and Cardiac Output, High, run by Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 29 Jul 2024. 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 Kingdom. 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 Jayanta Banerjee Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust (02033137308, jayanta.banerjee@nhs.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Haemodynamic outcome comparison to echocardiography measured CO (time frame: 36 months). 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 NCT04064177, 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 29 Jul 2024.
