Trial summary

Prenatal diagnosis of coarctation is difficult because the ductus arteriosus masks the isthmus narrowing. The problem lies in the fact that it is difficult to assert in utero diagnosis and to predict severity of neonatal symptomatology. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Antenatal Diagnosis of Coarctations of the Aorta. Prospective Observational Study.

Prenatal diagnosis of coarctation is difficult because the ductus arteriosus masks the isthmus narrowing. The problem lies in the fact that it is difficult to assert in utero diagnosis and to predict severity of neonatal symptomatology. However, it is essential to try to establish the diagnosis since it has been shown that the prenatal diagnosis improves survival and reduces morbidity.

What is being measured

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

  1. Search for ultrasound risk factors associated with diagnosis coarctation of the aorta

    Calculation of sensitivity, specificity and ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) curves of the different ultrasound parameters according to post-natal confirma-diagnosis of coarctation of the aorta in order to create a score to improve the antenatal diagnosis of coarctation the aorta.

    Measured: 24h after birth

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coarctation of Aorta, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

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 5 inclusion and 3 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 14 May 2019. 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 France. 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?

Search for ultrasound risk factors associated with diagnosis coarctation of the aorta (time frame: 24h after birth). 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 14 May 2019.
