Trial summary

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) may lead to serious consequences. But the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) fMRI and biochemical indicators will be used to explore the underlying mechanisms and represent a promising precursory target for diagnosis and treatment of… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Exploration of Neuroimaging and Biochemical Prognostic Indicators for Post-operative Cognitive Dysfunction After Coronary Artery Bypass Graft

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) may lead to serious consequences. But the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) fMRI and biochemical indicators will be used to explore the underlying mechanisms and represent a promising precursory target for diagnosis and treatment of POCD.

Read the detailed description

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is one of the most common complications in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. POCD will not only increase the incidence of complications and mortality, but also influence the quality of life after discharging from the hospital. Many factors are associated with POCD, such as neuroinflammation, age, anesthetics, surgery stress response and genetic factors. But the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) fMRI, which could monitor the peripheral neuron spontaneous activity according to the ratio of oxyhemoglobin and deaeration hemoglobin in blood, will be used to investigate whether POCD is induced by the variance in neurons metabolism and spontaneous activity in brain regions. Meanwhile, biochemical indicators will be detected to explore the prompting indicators of POCD. The present study is aimed to represent a promising precursory target for diagnosis and treatment of POCD, and provide novel evidence and insights on the brain changes induced by POCD.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction and Cognitive Impairment, run by wangqiang at 1 site in China.

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 8 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 16 Jun 2014. 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 China. 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?

Contact Qiang Wang, MD,PhD (+86-29-84775343, Wangqiang@fmmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The brain structure changes (time frame: 7 days postoperatively). 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 16 Jun 2014.
