An observational study of Coagulation, run by Sciema UG at 5 sites in 2 countries.

Unknown status

Status not confirmed. The sponsor has not verified this record for over two years, so it may be out of date.

Trial summary

The Perosphere Technologies' PoC Coagulometer measures clotting times of fresh whole blood samples. Clotting is initiated by glass surface activation and terminates on optical detection of fibrin assembly, the final step in the coagulation cascade. Read more about this study

About this study

The Perosphere Technologies' PoC Coagulometer measures clotting times of fresh whole blood samples. Clotting is initiated by glass surface activation and terminates on optical detection of fibrin assembly, the final step in the coagulation cascade. Since activation occurs at the top of the intrinsic pathway and detection occurs at the bottom of the final common pathway, the Perosphere Technologies' PoC Coagulometer has shown sensitivity to a broad range of drugs and reagents that affect blood clotting processes, including the Direct Oral Anticoagulants, DOACs (e.g. rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban), as well as the heparins (e.g. enoxaparin, a low molecular weight heparin, and unfractionated heparin). The purpose of the present study is to characterize the performance of the PoC Coagulometer measuring Clotting Time Controls, as well as fresh whole blood from both healthy volunteers and DOAC patients at three field testing sites.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coagulation, run by Sciema UG at 5 sites in 2 countries.

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 6 inclusion and 17 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 28 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United States, 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 Andreas Pfuetzner, Prof. (+4961315884640, info@pfuetzner-mainz.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clotting times of whole blood samples, measured on Perosphere Technologies' PoC Coagulometer devices (time frame: During the first/single study visit). 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 28 Sep 2023.
