About this study

The main objective of this study is to determine the usefulness of the HyperQ™ System in improving the positive predictive value of conventional ECG stress testing.

Patients who are referred for stress test will perform an ECG stress test on a treadmill, with high-frequency ECG recording from conventional 12 leads using BSP's HyperQ™ System. Conventional 12 lead ECG, as well as HyperQ™ recordings will be provided by the HyperQ™ System. The results of the conventional test and the HyperQ™ data will be compared, using one of three cardiac tests (stress echocardiography, SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging and angiography) as gold standards.

Statistical analysis will compare the sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV of the conventional and HyperQ™ stress ECG in detecting myocardial ischemia.

Read the detailed description

The study population will comprise of 1200 patients referred to stress test in three Maccabi clinics or cardiac medical centers. All patients will perform an ECG stress test with high-frequency ECG recording from conventional 12 leads using BSP's HyperQ™ System. The recording will be done without affecting or interfering with any aspect of the normal due course of the test. Standard Bruce protocol or modified Bruce protocol will be used, with standard test termination indications. Two minutes of rest ECG will be recorded prior to stating the protocol.

Following the test, the physician will interpret the test's results in the conventional manner (e.g. ST changes, chest pain, etc) and decide whether the subject should be referred to additional tests.

HyperQ™ data will be analyzed in two phases: (i) Interpretation by the physician in a non-blinded manner one day following the stress test and (ii) after performing all the exercise tests of the study group, blindly to the conventional diagnosis and the HyperQ™ analysis done previously, as well as to other outcomes of imaging procedures. The first HyperQ™ reading will be used to detect the subjects who were positive according to the HyperQ™ system but negative according to the conventional stress testing. These subjects will be referred by the physician to further clinical investigation. The first reading will also be used to assess the physician's interpretation in a scenario that represents a realistic clinical setting, while the second reading will be used to examine the unbiased clinical benefit of HyperQ™ data.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Excercise stress test with high frequency ECG recording (HyperQ™ System) in people with Myocardial Ischemia, run by Assuta Hospital Systems at 1 site in Israel.

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 5 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 17 Apr 2015. 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 Israel. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

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?

Contact Haim Silber, MD (09 7408811, silber_h@mac.org.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

ST changes. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 2015.
