About this study

Official title: Uterine Artery Pulsatility Index During Labor After 34 Weeks in the Prediction of Materno Fetal Outcomes

High Uterine artery index pulsatility (PI) is associated with small for gestationnal age but also with stillbirth and distress during labor.

Read the detailed description

measures of Uterine artery PI is made with transabdominal color flow during labor. The right and left uterine arteries are visualized at the crossover wth the external iliac arteries. PI is measured and the mean PI of the two vessels is calculated and expressed as multiple of the median (MoM).The outcomes stillbirth, distress and vaginal or cesarean delivery, apgar sore <7 at 5 minutes, birth weight and maternal outcomes: preeclampsia, hemorrhage and other complications are noted.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • normal PIRadiation

    measurement of the PI in the uterine artery for pregnant women during labor, expressed in MoM

  • pathological PIRadiation

    measurement of the PI in the uterine artery for pregnant women during labor, expressed in MoM

    Measured: 1 day

  4. distress

    number of cesarean section for distress

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing normal PI and pathological PI in people with Labor Complication, run by University Tunis El Manar at 1 site in Tunisia.

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 2 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 2 Aug 2016. 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 Tunisia. 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 AMIRA AYACHI, Ph D (53660148 ext. 00216, benmrad.amira@yahoo.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

right uterine artery pulsatility index measurement (time frame: 15 minutes). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02853058, 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 2 Aug 2016.
