About this study

Official title: Prognostic Implication of Right Ventricular Contractile Reserve in Patients With Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation

Aim of the study is to investigate the prognostic value of right ventricular contractile reserve in patients with functional tricuspid regurgitation undergoing tricuspid valve repair or replacement.

Read the detailed description

Chronic volume overload in patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) leads to right ventricular (RV) dilatation, fibrosis and eventually failure. RV dysfunction is an important determinant of mortality in patients undergoing tricuspid valve surgery.

Aim of the current study is to investigate the prognostic utility of right ventricular contractile reserve in patients with severe TR undergoing surgical or interventional tricuspid valve repair or tricuspid valve replacement.

RV contractile reserve will be assessed using semi-supine bicycle stress echocardiography.

Echocardiographic parameters are prone to altered loading conditions, such as volume overload. Load independent RV contractility can only be measured using invasive pressure-volume-loop (PVL) analysis. Therefore RV PVL analysis will be done using conductance catheter in a subset of patients who undergo right heart catheterization for clinical evaluation of pulmonary hypertension. Aim of this sub study is the validation of non-invasively derived RV contractile reserve with load independent markers of intrinsic RV contractility.

What participants receive

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

  • Stress EchocardiographyDiagnostic test

    Dynamic stress echocardiography using a cycle ergometer on a semi supine exercise table.

  • Pressure volume loop analysisDiagnostic test

    Pressure volume loop analysis unsing conductance catheter measurements during right heart catheterization.

  • Tricuspid valve repair or replacementProcedure or surgery

    Tricuspid valve repair or replacement using a surgical or interventionale approach according to local heart team recommendation and patients' preference.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation, run by Heart Center Leipzig - University Hospital at 1 site in Germany.

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 4 inclusion and 8 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 10 May 2021. 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 Germany. 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 Philipp Lurz, MD, PhD (+49341865252022, philipp.lurz@medizin.uni-leipzig.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Death or heart failure hospitalization (time frame: 6-12 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 10 May 2021.
