About this study

Official title: Role of Ivabradine on Heart Rate and Quality of Life in Patients With Mitral Stenosis in Sinus Rhythm - a Randomized Control Trial

Mitral stenosis, a condition characterized by narrowing of the mitral valve orifice, remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, particularly in regions where rheumatic fever is endemic. Despite advancements in medical and surgical management, patients with mitral stenosis often suffer from symptoms such as dyspnea, fatigue, and reduced exercise tolerance, significantly impacting their quality of life (QoL) [1].

One of the hallmark features of mitral stenosis is the development of sinus rhythm, which can be associated with elevated heart rates due to decreased diastolic filling time and compensatory mechanisms to maintain cardiac output. Persistent tachycardia in patients with mitral stenosis contributes to increased myocardial oxygen demand, exacerbating symptoms and potentially leading to adverse outcomes [2].

In recent years, ivabradine, a selective inhibitor of the If current in the sinoatrial node, has emerged as a promising therapeutic option for controlling heart rate in various cardiovascular conditions, including chronic heart failure and ischemic heart disease [3]. By specifically targeting the cardiac pacemaker cells, ivabradine reduces heart rate without affecting myocardial contractility or conduction, offering a unique mechanism of heart rate control compared to traditional beta-blockers or calcium channel blockers [4].

However, the role of ivabradine in patients with mitral stenosis in sinus rhythm remains uncertain, and there is limited evidence regarding its efficacy and impact on QoL in this specific patient population. Therefore, the aim of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to investigate the effects of ivabradine on heart rate control and QoL in patients with mitral stenosis in sinus rhythm.

Read the detailed description

Symptoms of mitral stenosis (MS) are may be sometimes cause significant risk mainly during increase heart and exercise. Beta-blockers are given in some patients for heart rate (HR) in MS, which in turn improve the symptoms, but they have side effects. Ivabradine has a selective action on the sinus node with less side effects. Some studies have recently investigated the role of ivabradine in MS in sinus rhythm. We will determine the efficacy and safety status of ivabradine, compared to standard treatment on maximum HR achieved among patients in sinus rhythm with MS as well as the impact of drug treatment on QOL.

Research question:

What is the role of ivabradine in comparison with standard treatment (beta blocker) on heart rate in sinus rhythm and quality of life in mitral stenosis patients?

Aims and Objectives:

General:

To assess and compare the status of ivabradine with beta blocker on heart rate in sinus rhythm in mitral stenosis patients

Specific:

  1. To evaluate the effect of ivabradine on heart rate at base line and after 3 months in sinus rhythm mitral stenosis patients
  2. To assess the comparative efficacy of ivabradine versus beta blocker on heart rate at baseline and after 3 months in sinus rhythm in mitral stenosis patients
  3. To assess the comparative safety of ivabradine and beta blocker in sinus rhythm in mitral stenosis patients
  4. To assess \& compare the effect of ivabradine with beta blocker on quality of life in sinus rhythm mitral stenosis patients

Additional Objective

  • To measure LVEF by bedside 2D \& M mode echocardiography

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ivabradine and Beta blocker in people with Mitral Stenosis, run by Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka, Bangladesh at 1 site in Bangladesh.

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 7 inclusion and 16 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 Apr 2024. 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 Bangladesh. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

effect of ivabradine in MS patients (time frame: three months). 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 Apr 2024.
