About this study

Official title: Vocal Cord Impairment and Dysphagia in Cardiac Surgery

Aiming to determine the incidence and contributing risk factors of vocal fold mobility impairment (VFMI) and dysphagia in postoperative cardiovascular patients and evaluate the impact of VFMI on health-related outcomes.

Read the detailed description

This is a retrospective study to determine:

  1. the incidence and contributing risk factors of vocal fold mobility impairment (VFMI) and dysphagia in postoperative cardiovascular patients
  2. evaluate the impact of VFMI on health-related outcomes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of vocal fold mobility impairment (VFMI) and dysphagia in postoperative cardiovascular patients

    Data analyses will be conducted using commercially available statistical software, SPSS and only de-identified data will be used during data analysis. We will pull data from the files in order to determine how often the patients have vocal fold mobility impairment and/or dysphagia following surgery.

    Measured: January 2010-June 2020

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Dysphagia and Cardiovascular Diseases, run by University of Florida.

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 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Incidence of vocal fold mobility impairment (VFMI) and dysphagia in postoperative cardiovascular patients (time frame: January 2010-June 2020). 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 15 Jun 2023.
