About this study

Official title: Comparison of Standard Breath-hold Cardiac MRI With a Faster, Free-breathing Scan

This study will compare the accuracy of a real-time Cine sequence in assessing cardiac volumetry.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-centre prospective study involving up to 570 patients with known or suspected cardiac disease referred for routine clinical cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) assessment at Glenfield General Hospital, Leicester. In addition to standard multi-breath-hold steady-state free precession (SSFP) imaging (undertaken as part of the routine scan), each patient will also undergo additional imaging with a non-breath-hold multi-slice real-time cine sequence.

The primary outcome is the assessment of cardiac volumetry and function (end-diastolic volume, end-systolic volume, stroke volume, ejection fraction and myocardial mass) as measured by (1) the standard multi-breath-hold SSFP technique and (2) the non-breath-hold multi-slice real-time cine sequence. Secondary outcome measures will be (1) the time required for each scan, and (2) image quality for each scan. An additional secondary outcome will be to compare indexed cardiac volumes with those indexed according to measured body-surface area.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Left Ventricle Abnormality, run by University of Leicester at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 5 inclusion and 4 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 Nov 2023. 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 United Kingdom. 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 Jayanth Arnold, BMBCh (01162583038, jra14@le.ac.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cardiac volumetric assessment 1 (time frame: 1 day). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05221853, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Nov 2023.
