Trial summary

We aim to determine the function of Right ventricle post mitral valve surgeries in patients with pulmonary hypertension using transthoracic echocardiography3- and 6-months post-operatively to detect the effect of mitral valve surgeries over the RV function whether improving, deteriorating, or not changing at all.

  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Descriptive cross-sectional

Who may be able to join

  • Patients who underwent mitral valve surgeries who also had pulmonary hypertension in the period between March 2019 and March 2022 in Assiut university heart hospital

Who cannot join

  • Patients who underwent mitral valve surgeries with normal pulmonary pressure. Patients who had other valve surgeries besides mitral as aortic and/or tricuspid valve surgeries.

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. Right Ventricular function post mitral valve surgeries in patients with pulmonary hypertension

    to detect right ventricular function (ejection fraction percentage and/or TAPSE) through transthoracic echocardiography 3- and 6-months post operatively in patients who had mitral valve surgeries with pulmonary hypertension.

    Measured: From March 2019 till March 2022

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Best mitral valve surgical modalities in patients with pulmonary hypertension

    to identify best surgical modalities for mitral valve diseased patients with pulmonary hypertension that lead to improvement of right ventricle function.

    Measured: From March 2019 till March 2022

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Right Ventricular Dysfunction, run by Assiut University.

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 1 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Right Ventricular function post mitral valve surgeries in patients with pulmonary hypertension (time frame: From March 2019 till March 2022). 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 NCT05620992, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 Feb 2023.
