About this study

Official title: Functional Capacity and Quality of Life Following SePtal Myectomy in patIents With Obstructive hypeRtrophIc cardiomyopaThy

Investigators aim to assess changes in exercise capacity and quality of life after septal myectomy in patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to examine change in quality of life and functional capacity as respectively measured by, Quality of Life Questionnaires and six-minute walk test distance, following septal myectomy in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, as compared to prior to surgery.

Medical subject headings
Cardiomyopathy, Hypertrophic

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Quality of Life Change in Summary Score

    Mild improvement in Quality of Life summary score (increase in 5 points) as measured by Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire -KCCQ

    Measured: 1 year post myectomy

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in Quality of Life Change in Patient Reported Outcomes

    Quality of Life as measured by The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Questionnaire

    Measured: 1 year post myectomy

  2. Change in Quality of Life Change in Duke's Activity Status Index (DASI)

    Quality of Life as measured by the Duke's Activity Status Index (DASI) Questionnaire

    Measured: 1 year post myectomy

  3. Change in functional capacity post myectomy

    Functional capacity will be measured by 6 minute walk

    Measured: 1 year post myectomy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, run by The Cleveland Clinic 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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Aug 2023. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Change in Quality of Life Change in Summary Score (time frame: 1 year post myectomy). 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 NCT03092843, which also lists 2 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 7 Aug 2023.
