About this study

Clinical improvement has been demonstrated after cardiorespiratory rehabilitation in patients with pulmonary hypertension. Rehabilitation is therefore now part of the recommendations for good practice. However, no data is available to elucidate the mechanism of this improvement: an improvement in myocardial reserve or an improvement in peripheral muscular capacity? The main objective of this study is to evaluate the difference in right ventricular contractile reserve before and after cardiorespiratory rehabilitation during stress ultrasound in pulmonary hypertension in 10 patients with pulmonary hypertension.

What is being measured

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

  1. Improvement of the subpulmonary ITS at effort >20% (presence of a right ventricular contractile reserve) defined by the improvement of the ITS or integral subpulmonary time-speed)

    Measured: 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Stress echocardiography in people with Pulmonary Hypertension, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice 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 7 inclusion and 23 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 29 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 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?

Improvement of the subpulmonary ITS at effort >20% (presence of a right ventricular contractile reserve) defined by the improvement of the ITS or integral subpulmonary time-speed) (time frame: 4 months). 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 29 Aug 2023.
