About this study

The aim of this study is to record the radial pressure pulse(RPP) of the patients with cholecystitis compared preoperative and postoperative pulse changes in an attempt to determine the relationship between cholecystitis and pulse.

Read the detailed description

A total of 20 patients were recruited according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The patients, aged 32-76 years, were given a diagnosis of cholecystitis by a general surgeon from Taiwan's Taichung Tzu Chi Hospital. All eligible patients included in the study agreed to participated and signed the informed consent form and the study procedures were approved by the ethical committee of Taichung Tzu Chi general hospital (REC110-12). By measuring and recording the RPP preoperatively and postoperatively, the mean values of the spectral energy (SE0-10 Hz, SE10-50 Hz, and SE13-50 Hz) were obtained for comparison with the preoperative white blood cell (WBC) count.

What is being measured

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

  1. The changes of spectral energy of radial artery pulse after cholecystectomy

    The spectral energy of radial artery pulse was measured before and after cholecystectomy to compare the difference

    Measured: Baseline (before cholecystectomy) and 24 -48 hours after cholecystectomy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cholecystitis and Cholecystectomy, run by Taichung Tzu Chi Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 2 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 17 Oct 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 Taiwan. 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?

The changes of spectral energy of radial artery pulse after cholecystectomy (time frame: Baseline (before cholecystectomy) and 24 -48 hours after cholecystectomy). 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 17 Oct 2023.
