Trial summary

Morbidly obese patients are at risk for diastolic cardiac dysfunction, which can lead to adverse event, such as, diastolic heart failure postoperatively. Preoperative screening by transthoracic echocardiogram is difficult due to anatomical challenge, therefore the prevalence of this problem may be underestimated. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Prevalence of Diastolic Dysfunction in Morbidly Obese Patients Undergo Bariatric Surgery

Morbidly obese patients are at risk for diastolic cardiac dysfunction, which can lead to adverse event, such as, diastolic heart failure postoperatively. Preoperative screening by transthoracic echocardiogram is difficult due to anatomical challenge, therefore the prevalence of this problem may be underestimated. The investigator would like to perform transesophageal echocardiogram in this group of patients after anesthesia induction to demonstrate the true prevalence of this syndrome.

Read the detailed description

Morbidly obese patients are at risk for both respiratory and cardiovascular abnormalities. Many cardiac problems were previously reported including left ventricular hypertrophy, right and left ventricular systolic dysfunction etc. Diastolic cardiac dysfunction can be found in normal left ventricular systolic function and can lead to diastolic heart failure postoperatively.

Preoperative screening by transthoracic echocardiogram is difficult due to anatomical challenge (thick chest wall, narrowing of inter-rib space), therefore the prevalence of this problem may be underestimated. Transesophageal echocardiogram provides better cardiac view, but requires sedation during procedure. So, it is not practical for out-patient setting. The investigator would like to perform transesophageal echocardiogram in this group of patients after anesthesia induction to demonstrate the true prevalence of this syndrome.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of diastolic dysfunction

    Prevalence of diastolic dysfunction according to American society of echocardiography definition

    Measured: during surgery

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Prevalence of other cardiac abnormalities

    Number of patients with other cardiac abnormalities, both structural and functional abnormalities

    Measured: during surgery

  2. Incidence of cardiac adverse events

    Number of patients with cardiac adverse event: myocardial ischemia, pulmonary edema

    Measured: within 24 hours after surgery

  3. Incidence of pulmonary adverse events

    Number of patients experienced aspiration, desaturation, re-intubation

    Measured: within 24 hours after surgery

  4. Incidence of oral and airway trauma

    Number of patients with new loose teeth, sore throat, difficult to swallow, hoarseness of voice

    Measured: within 24 hours after surgery

  5. Length of hospital stay

    duration of hospital stay

    Measured: up to 5 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diastolic Dysfunction and Morbid Obesity, run by Mahidol University at 1 site in Thailand.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Mar 2023. 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 Thailand. 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?

Prevalence of diastolic dysfunction (time frame: during surgery). 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 NCT04128735, which also lists 3 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 16 Mar 2023.
