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 Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study population are known to have coronary artery disease and underwent revascularization therapy via bypass surgery around 10 years before the initial CMR examination. Those presented with manifestations of recurrent post-CABG angina, with either typical or atypical presentation. Each patient had two CMR examinations on two occasions using both dobutamine and adenosine stress agents.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with established CAD and underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) performed around 10 years before the initial CMR examination. Who presented to CMR examination because of recurrent typical/ atypical angina.

Who cannot join

  • All patients that were not able to withstand the condition of CMR examination
  • Patients who had contraindications to the stressor agents used in stress CMR were not included in the analysis (i.e. bronchial asthma, high degree heart-block)

About this study

Official title: Prognostic Value of Hemodynamic Forces at Rest and Stress Compared to Adenosine and Dobutamine Stress Cardiac Magnetic Resonance

Stress perfusion CMR has recently considered as one of the methods of choice for establishing the diagnosis of CAD based on its high diagnostic accuracy, lack of ionizing radiation as well as its ability to simultaneously assess the cardiac function, myocardial perfusion, and viability, however, there are some concerns on its suitability for assessment of myocardial perfusion in patients after coronary artery bypass graft surgery who suffer from recurrent angina. The study of hemodynamic forces offers a promising tool for further understanding of the interplay between the myocardium and blood as well as the mechanisms of cardiac filling. This work represents a retrospective follow up study of CMR data, available on CMR-database, from 112 patients with previous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) performed around 10 years before the initial CMR examination. The study subjects underwent stress CMR testing; using both stressors; dobutamine and adenosine (done on two separate occasions). Injection of gadolinium contrast medium for late gadolinium enhancement was done with adenosine stress testing for late gadolinium enhancement (LGE). Offline analysis of these data will be done with the use of dedicated software for assessment for myocardial ischemia together with quantitative measurements of the hemodynamic forces with the help of dedicated software (QStrain version 1.3.0.79; Medis, Leiden, the Netherlands).

Read the detailed description

In total 112 patients who underwent coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) subjected to stress CMR examination on two separate occasions with both stressors; dobutamine and adenosine for assessment of myocardial ischemia as result of typical /atypical angina pectoris. The results from dobutamine (namely, detection of wall motion abnormalities) and adenosine stress CMR (namely, detection of perfusion abnormalities) will be compared with the values obtained from the measures of the hemodynamic forces of the LV (i.e., changes in the intraventricular pressures during systole and diastole). The dimensionless root mean square (FRMS) is computed over the entire heartbeat as a measure of the overall force amplitude. In addition, LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) and LV global circumferential strain (GCS) will be measured using a CMR feature tracking techniques. The expected results are as follows: Dobutamine wall motion analysis in combination with perfusion imaging has the highest diagnostic accuracy for the detection of ischemia in patients after bypass surgery and outperforms pure dobutamine wall motion or perfusion analysis and adenosine perfusion. Whereas, perfusion imaging with both stressors reflects the extent of ischemia more precisely than wall motion analysis. Nevertheless, assessment of hemodynamic forces adds to the diagnostic accuracy as well as the prognostic value of stress CMR in post-CABG patients, in whom stress testing with either or both stressors might fail to precisely define myocardial ischemia or reflect an associated subtle cardiac dysfunction.

What is being measured

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

  1. Occurrence of hard and soft cardiac events and their relation to initial positive or negative Stress-CMR-test.

    Hard cardiac outcomes are defined defined as deaths that are attributed to coronary artery disease, and non-fatal myocardial infarction. While soft events are defined as angina, or repeat revascularization for progressive coronary artery disease.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Definition of the prognostic value of vasodilator stress and inotropic stress-CMR in patients with chronic CAD and a history of CABG.

    The capability of both stressors to detect precisely the presence recurrent ischaemia in patients with CAD on both CMR examinations

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Evaluation of the diagnostic accuracy of hemodynamic forces and assessment of the relationship to inducible wall motion abnormalities and perfusion defects.

    The power of how much the analysis of hemodynamic forces in comparison to adenosine and dobutamine to precisely detect ischaemic changes in either positive and negative stress CMR in such patients

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jan 2020. 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 Egypt. 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 Ayat Abdelgalil, Msc. (+2 01144478313, soze2080@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Occurrence of hard and soft cardiac events and their relation to initial positive or negative Stress-CMR-test. (time frame: 1 year). 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 31 Jan 2020.
