About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter, Single-arm Investigation of the Ringer Perfusion Balloon Catheter Performed Under an Exception From Informed Consent (EFIC) (Ringer IDE Study)

The objective of this study is to demonstrate reasonable assurance that the Ringer catheter can be safely used to manage hemorrhage due to coronary vessel perforations while facilitating distal perfusion under the conditions of use prescribed in the labeling.

Read the detailed description

A prospective, multicenter, single-arm clinical study. The study will be conducted at up to 15 investigational sites in the US and will enroll up to 30 participants. The population for this investigation is adult participants who suffer a perforation of the coronary artery during a percutaneous coronary intervention requiring management of hemorrhage while providing distal perfusion until definite treatment is determined.

This clinical investigation is being conducted under Exception from Informed Consent (EFIC) regulations because there is no reasonable way to identify patients likely to become eligible for the investigation, and a coronary perforation can be a life-threatening emergency that needs to be immediately controlled without enough time for the patient or their legally authorized representative to give consent. Patients will be notified of their enrollment as soon as feasible. For more information on the exception from informed consent, please use the contact information be.ow.

Experimental

What participants receive

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

  • ExperimentalDevice

    Prolonged balloon inflation for hemorrhage management due to coronary artery perforation.

Experimental ArmExperimentalAdult subjects who experience a perforation of a coronary vessel during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and require management of hemorrhage until a definitive treatment is determined.
Receives: Device: Experimental

What is being measured

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

  1. Effectiveness of device success in managing hemorrhage while preserving flow

    Effectiveness of device success in managing hemorrhage while preserving flow via angiographic confirmation of: a) successful delivery of Ringer across perforation, b) acute cessation of extravasation while Ringer is inflated, and c) demonstration of antegrade blood flow during Ringer deployment.

    Measured: Procedure

  2. Rate of Ringer related thrombosis and/or dissection

    Rate of Ringer-related thrombosis and new or worsening coronary dissection following Ringer deflation and withdrawal.

    Measured: Procedure

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in TIMI (thrombolysis in myocardial infarction) flow

    The change in TIMI flow during Ringer deployment.

    Measured: Procedure

  2. Change in perforation classification

    The change in perforation classification after Ringer deployment

    Measured: Procedure

  3. Rate of clinically relevant events

    Rate of clinically relevant events in the management of the coronary perforation and any potential sequelae including: chest pain, bleeding incidence and severity, major adverse cardiac events (MACE), cardiac tamponade and pericardiocentesis, emergency surgery post-perforation including coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), death.

    Measured: Discharge or 30 days, whichever comes first.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Experimental in people with Coronary Artery Perforation, run by Vascular Solutions LLC at 6 sites in United States.

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 1 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 22 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States. 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?

Effectiveness of device success in managing hemorrhage while preserving flow (time frame: Procedure). 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?
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 22 Dec 2023.
