About this study

The purpose of the study is to develop methods to identify predictors of Malignant Hyperthermia.

Read the detailed description

The current study will use the combination of electronic medical records and genomic information in samples of persons who have exhibited signs of Malignant Hyperthermia (MH) or have family history or high risk of MH to see if risk factors can be identified. These will be compared with control samples of children who have been exposed to the same agents which could induce MH, yet showed no signs of the disorder.

ControlsChildren who participated in pharmacogenetic research and had exposure to malignant hyperthermia triggering agents.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of clinical manifestations of malignant hyperthermia

    Incidence of clinical manifestations of MH will be compared among patients with a history of MH to controls (no diagnosis of MH).

    Measured: Within data collection period (3 years total).

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. number of Genetic indications for malignant hyperthermia

    genetic indications for malignant hyperthermia will be compared between control subjects and subjects with a diagnosis of MH

    Measured: Within data collection period (3 years total).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Malignant Hyperthermia, run by Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati at 1 site in United States.

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 1 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Dec 2022. 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 United States. 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Number of clinical manifestations of malignant hyperthermia (time frame: Within data collection period (3 years total).). 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 15 Dec 2022.
