Trial summary

Direct portal pressure measurement under EUS-guidance (EUS-PPM) is a promising alternative to conventional indirect Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient (HVPG). In patients undergoing liver transplantation for cirrhosis, high pre-operative portal vein (PV) pressure requires intra-operative portal vein inflow modulation… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of Pre-operative EUS Guided and Intra-operative Direct Portal Vein Pressure Measurement in Pretransplant Cirrhotics - Prospective Observational Study

Direct portal pressure measurement under EUS-guidance (EUS-PPM) is a promising alternative to conventional indirect Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient (HVPG). In patients undergoing liver transplantation for cirrhosis, high pre-operative portal vein (PV) pressure requires intra-operative portal vein inflow modulation (PIM). This pilot study aims to assess correlation between EUS-PPM with direct intra-operative portal pressure measurement (IO-PPM).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Liver Cirrhosis, run by Asian Institute of Gastroenterology, India.

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 3 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 2 Nov 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Correlation between EUS-PPM with direct intra-operative portal pressure measurement (IO-PPM). (time frame: 1 year). 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 2 Nov 2023.
