About this study

Official title: Incidence and Predictors of Post-TIPS (Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS) Heart Failure in Patients With Cirrhosis

The purpose of this study is to conduct a prospective trial to investigate the incidence of heart failure in cirrhosis patients undergoing transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt ,and to analyze the the predictors and modififications of cardiac function.

Read the detailed description

Hyperdynamic circulation is a common Phenomenon in cirrhosis due to systemic and splanchnic vasodilatation, which may result cardic dysfunction and abnormal structure ,called cirrhotic cardiomyopathy(CCM). Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS), as a effective technique to alleviates portal hypertension in cirrhotic patients, often be used to treat with refractory ascites and variceal bleeding which endoscopy and drug therapy are ineffective. However, owing to the increased shunting of blood from the splanchnic vascular bed into the central vascular bed, TIPS further exacerbates the hyperdynamic circulatory state, which may lead to heart failure.yet there are no convincing research to study the incidence of heart failure in cirrhosis after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt. The purpose of this study is to conduct a prospective trial to investigate the incidence of heart failure in cirrhotic patients undergoing transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt ,and to analyze the the predictors and modififications of cardiac function.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • TIPSProcedure or surgery

    TIPS: Established distributary channel between the portal vein and hepatic vein via the jugular vein, portal vein blood directly shunts into the systemic circulation to reduce portal vein pressure to effectively prevent bleeding and refractory ascites.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Liver Cirrhosis and Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS), run by West China Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Apr 2024. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xuefeng Luo (+86 18980606826, luo_xuefeng@yeah.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of heart failue (time frame: up to 36 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 12 Apr 2024.
