About this study

Official title: VasoStat vs. TR Band for Hemostasis Following Transradial Catheterization Without Prior Radial Access

VasoStat vs. TR Band compression for Radial Artery Hemostasis Following Transradial Catheterization Without Prior Radial Artery Access

Read the detailed description

Patients will be enrolled if they are scheduled to undergo a coronary or peripheral catheterization procedure involving the placement of a sheath (plastic tube) in the radial artery near the participants wrist. The purpose of this research is to compare two devices which make bleeding stop after the participants procedure is finished and the plastic tube is removed from the radial artery in the wrist. The two devices are called the VasoStat and the TR Band. Both of these devices are called hemostasis devices, which means they stop bleeding (hemostasis). Both devices are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and are used throughout hospitals in the United States. The investigators will compare blood flow to the hand, and survey patients as to how comfortable these devices are, while they are being used to stop bleeding after the catheterization procedure.

Patients will be randomized to one device or the other as part of the study.

The investigators will noninvasively measure the blood flow to the hand by placing a soft plastic probe on the tip of the thumb called a plethysmography probe. This measurement only takes a few seconds and is painless. The investigators will measure before, after application and after removal \& before patients are discharged. Thirty days later, patients will return for another measurement and to examine the radial artery with an ultrasound probe.

40 patients will be enrolled. Statistical analysis: Based on prior studies, The investigators will assume that the VasoStat produces a 30% reduction in hand perfusion during normal clinical use. The investigators assume the TR Band produces a 70% reduction in hand perfusion during normal clinical use. Using a two-sample test of proportions, with a Type I error of 5%, a power of 80%, and an anticipated drop-out rate of 10%, The investigators will need to enroll 40 patients (20 patients in each arm of the study) (StatMate 2.0, GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA)

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of impact of two radial artery compression devices on hand perfusion measurements

    Changes in Hand perfusion will be quantified using a noninvasive pulse oximetry technique and a previously validated metric known as the Perfusion Index, which is the ratio of the pulsatile blood flow to the nonpulsatile or static blood in peripheral tissue. The Perfusion Index represents a noninvasive measure of hand perfusion that can be continuously and noninvasively obtained from a specialized pulse oximeter.

    Measured: Perfusion index measurements day 1: before radial artery puncture, during wrist compression, after removal of compression device. Final perfusion index at 30-day followup appointment.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Comparison of impact of two radial artery compression devices on hand perfusion prior to and during ulnar artery compression

    Changes in Hand perfusion will be quantified using a noninvasive pulse oximetry technique and a previously validated metric known as the Perfusion Index, which is the ratio of the pulsatile blood flow to the nonpulsatile or static blood in peripheral tissue. The Perfusion Index represents a noninvasive measure of hand perfusion that can be continuously and noninvasively obtained from a specialized pulse oximeter.

    Measured: Perfusion index measurements on day 1 with ulnar compression: will include before radial artery puncture, and during wrist compression after radial sheath removal.

  2. Patient satisfaction during use of wrist compression device

    Survey of patient perception of wrist discomfort, hand numbness, pain, swelling and willingness to use again in the future

    Measured: During application of radial artery mechanical compression

  3. Hand perfusion and radial artery patency after one month

    Changes in Hand perfusion will be quantified using a noninvasive pulse oximetry technique and a previously validated metric known as the Perfusion Index, which is the ratio of the pulsatile blood flow to the nonpulsatile or static blood in peripheral tissue. The Perfusion Index represents a noninvasive measure of hand perfusion that can be continuously and noninvasively obtained from a specialized pulse oximeter. Duplex ultrasound will be used to assess radial artery patency.

    Measured: 30 day follow-up after use of mechanical wrist compression following transradial access for arterial catheterization procedures

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease and Peripheral Arterial Disease, run by Forge Medical 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 1 inclusion and 9 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 Nov 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 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?

Comparison of impact of two radial artery compression devices on hand perfusion measurements (time frame: Perfusion index measurements day 1: before radial artery puncture, during wrist compression, after removal of compression device. Final perfusion index at 30-day followup appointment.). 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 Nov 2019.
