About this study

Official title: A Comparison of Multidetector Computed Tomography and Transthoracic Echocardiography in the Diagnosis of Congenital Cyanotic Heart Diseases

Multi-detector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) provides high-resolution images of the heart and its vasculature, allowing for accurate anatomical assessment, detection of complex cardiac morphology,

Read the detailed description

evaluation of coronary artery anatomy, and identification of extracardiac anomalies including the coronaries, pulmonary arteries, aorta, and pulmonary or systemic veins, and it delineates vessel walls and also displays the airway, mediastinal abnormalities, and pulmonary parenchyma by using contrast media. This modality is particularly useful for evaluating complex cardiac anatomy and identifying potential surgical or interventional targets.

What participants receive

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

  • Group 1Radiation

    the study is to emphasize the role of Computed Tomography Angiography (MDCTA) and Transthoracic Echocardiography (Echo) in the diagnosis of congenital cyanotic heart diseases.

What is being measured

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

  1. Computed Tomgraphy Angiogrpahy

    All patients will undergo MDCT using a 128-slice scanner. A contrast agent will be administered to visualize the heart's vascular structures. Detailed images of the heart's chambers, major blood vessels, and defects will be acquired

    Measured: 12 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Congenital Heart Disease, run by Superior University at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Computed Tomgraphy Angiogrpahy (time frame: 12 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.
