About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine whether aspirin resistance has impact on cardiovascular event in dialysis patient.

Read the detailed description

Dialysis patient inevitably suffered from uremic bleeding although improvement of dialysis care in the past decades. Physicians used to check bleeding time as a surrogate marker for uremic bleeding. However, bleeding time isn't accurate and as well known, is poorly correlated with clinical bleeding such as surgical bleeding. Platelet function assay (PFA) is a newly developed method to measure platelet aggregation in vitro and is validated in many sorts of platelet disorders. Recently, PFA was also used to evaluate aspirin responsiveness in patients who had taken aspirin. Our study is aim to investigate uremic thrombocytopathy via PFA of dialysis patient in Taiwan. Furthermore, we will study aspirin resistance in dialysis patient.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of End Stage Renal Disease, run by National Taiwan University 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 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.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jan 2010. 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?

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?

cardiovascular event, bleeding event,and thrombosis (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01045785, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 11 Jan 2010.
