Analysis in the EMERGEncy Between TransVenous Cardiac PACIng Guided by Fluoroscopy Versus Echocardiogram

A study testing Transvenous cardiac pacing guided by fluoroscopy and Transvenous cardiac pacing guided by ECG/ECHO in people with Bradycardia, run by University of Sao Paulo General Hospital at 1 site in Brazil.

Unknown status

Status not confirmed. The sponsor has not verified this record for over two years, so it may be out of date.

About this study

Official title: Prospective Analysis in the EMERGEncy Between TransVenous Cardiac PACIng Guided by Fluoroscopy Versus Echocardiogram

A lot of questions about use of temporary transvenous pacing still remain obscure and there is no effective comparison between use of fluoroscopy versus electrocardiogram/echocardiogram in patients with bradicardias. The aim of the study is to evaluate how long does it take to start the correct cardiac stimulation with transvenous pacing in patients with bradicardias comparing use of fluoroscopy versus electrocardiogram/echocardiogram and compare rates of complications between two methods.

Read the detailed description

Approximately 150 subjects will be recruited over a planned recruitment period of 18 months. Patients will be submitted to ecchocardiogram using Philips Envisor, and electrocardiogram with Philips Healthcare PageWriter TC30.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Transvenous cardiac pacing guided by fluoroscopy and Transvenous cardiac pacing guided by ECG/ECHO in people with Bradycardia, run by University of Sao Paulo General Hospital at 1 site in Brazil.

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 7 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 24 Oct 2018. 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 Brazil. 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 Alexandre Soeiro, MD (55-11-2661-5299 ext. 4061, alexandre.soeiro@bol.com.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

all cause mortality (time frame: 1 week). The study lists 9 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 NCT03037333, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 24 Oct 2018.
