Trial summary

Severe aortic stenosis is a condition with poor life expectancy once it becomes symptomatic. There are no prospective studies illustrating the utility of cardiopulmonary stress (CPX) testing in diagnosing and prognosticating patients with paradoxically low gradient and low flow severe aortic stenosis.

About this study

Official title: The Role of Cardiopulmonary Stress Testing in Diagnostic Evaluation of Paradoxical Low Gradient Aortic Valve Stenosis

Severe aortic stenosis is a condition with poor life expectancy once it becomes symptomatic. There are no prospective studies illustrating the utility of cardiopulmonary stress (CPX) testing in diagnosing and prognosticating patients with paradoxically low gradient and low flow severe aortic stenosis. We aim to prospectively investigate the utility of CPX in this patient population with the hypothesis that utilizing CPX parameters would better identify higher risk patients warranting further evaluation and possibly intervention sooner.

Read the detailed description

This will be a prospective crossectional, longitudinal study recruiting patients by invitation with paradoxical low flow low gradient severe aortic stenosis. Patients with PLFLG AS will have been identified in other studies and these patients will be approached for enrollment in the study. Patients deemed appropriate for enrollment will undergo recumbent bicycle stress testing with concomitant measure of gas exchange. The bicycle will be at 30 degrees with initiation of minimal resistance for 3 minutes, followed by an increase in work-rate of 25 watts every two minutes until the patient reaches a sign/symptom-limited maximum exertion or test limiting symptoms develop. Charts will be reviewed for baseline medical conditions and demographics. CPX protocol will be standard HFH protocol supervised by exercise physiologist. The first phase of the study will be investigating if these asymptomatic patients will be reclassified to symptomatic as defined by reduced V02 Max. The second phase will be following these patients for long term adverse events and if V02 max correlates with a higher risk.

What is being measured

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

  1. Functional status

    Evaluate changes in rest vs. Peak V02 at maximal exercise capacity.

    Measured: August 30 2017-April 30 2017

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Follow-up

    Follow patients long term for major adverse cardiac events including myocardial infarction, stroke, hospitalization, or death and if CPX parameters provide further prognostic information in this patient population

    Measured: August 30 2017- August 30 2019

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aortic Valve Stenosis, run by Henry Ford Health System at 1 site 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 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Aug 2022. 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 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Functional status (time frame: August 30 2017-April 30 2017). 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 1 Aug 2022.
