About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Self-paired, Single-center Clinical Trial Evaluating the Accuracy of Brain Biological Electrical Impedance Tomography Screen for Supratentorial Tumors

Compared with MRI or CT, brain biological electrical impedance tomography were performed on patients with supratentorial tumors and healthy people . The AUC (area under the curve) of ROC, which is associated with the increased maximum and the difference between left and right equilibrium of impedance value, is calculated. The specificity of brain biological electrical impedance tomography in screening supratentorial tumors are evaluated.

To compare the changes of parameters detected by brain biological electrical impedance tomography, the enrolled brain tumor patients with cerebral edema were paired with themselves and intravenous infusion of mannitol so that the sensitivity of this device in monitoring cerebral edema can be evaluated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing brain biological electrical impedance tomography and MRI/CT in people with Brain Tumor and Brain Edema, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 7 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 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 China. 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?

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?

The AUC of ROC curve of the maximum increased value of impedance (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 29 Jul 2020.
