About this study

Chest pain and myocardial ischemia are prevailing features in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Recently introduced single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) cameras with solid-state cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) detectors have been shown to decrease imaging time and improved the imaging quality of gated myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI). The investigators also correlate the MPI parameters with echocardiographic parameters. This study is to examine the spatial distribution of stress perfusion abnormalities and tissue injury in patients with HCM using a CZT SPECT camera.

Read the detailed description

The investigators will retrospectively evaluate myocardial perfusion patterns and cardiac function with Thallium (Tl)-201 gated dipyridamole MPI in patients with clinical diagnosis of HCM and patent coronary angiography between January 2013 and October 2016. The inclusion criteria included a spade-like configuration on left ventriculogram, or echocardiographic findings suggestive of HCM. The participants will be then divided into the following three groups: apical, concentric and septal forms. Regional perfusion would be analyzed using a 17-segment model from 0-4 degree (0=normal, to 4=absent perfusion); and summed stress score (SSS), summed rest score (SRS) and summed difference score (SDS) were calculated. Gated SPECT would be processed by quantitative gated SPECT (QGS) software (Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA, USA) and ejection fraction phase analysis. Diastolic parameters would be also acquired by Doppler echocardiography, and correlated with MPI parameters.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and Myocardial Perfusion Imaging, run by Far Eastern Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 May 2017. 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 Taiwan. 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 Szu-Ying Tsai, MD (+886289227000 ext. 1223, dorissyt@mail.femh.org.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

MPI results (time frame: January 2013 and October 2016.). 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 May 2017.
