What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of patients with Possible IE that will be appropriately reclassified

    Proportion of patients with Possible IE that will be appropriately reclassified as Definite IE by the addition of FDG-PET to the Duke criteria.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of FDG-PET for the detection of NVE

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the Duke criteria with FDG-PET for detection of NVESensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the Duke criteria with FDG-PET for detection of NVE

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the Duke criteria with FDG-PET but excluding TEE for the detection of NVE

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Differences in maximal standardized uptake value (SUVmax) between infected and non-infected valves

    Measured: 3 months

  5. Differences target-to-background ratio (TBR) between infected and non-infected valves

    Measured: 3 months

  6. Proportion of patients in whom a TEE was not necessary to diagnose NVE through the addition of FDG-PET

    Measured: 3 months

  7. Proportion of patients with final diagnosis of IE with septic emboli detected on whole body FDGPET

    Measured: 3 months

  8. Differences in the rate of sub-optimal suppression protocol between males and females

    Measured: 3 months

  9. Proportion of patients with incidental cancer identified on FDG-PET

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Infective Endocarditis and Native Valve Endocarditis, run by Montreal Heart Institute at 6 sites in Canada.

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 4 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Canada. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of patients with Possible IE that will be appropriately reclassified (time frame: 3 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 22 Nov 2024.
