About this study

Official title: Feasibility of Blood Pressure Measurement With a Wearable (Watch-type) Monitor in Patients With Syncope

The main purpose of this study is to assess the reliability of a new patient's self-administered wearable watch-type BP monitor in detecting episodes of hypotensive (pre)syncope. Secondary aim regards the estimation of feasibility of this tool.

Read the detailed description

Background While ECG monitoring is a reliable and established method that allows to document bradycardia in a substantial proportion of patients affected by cardioinhibitory reflex syncope, the documentation of a transient hypotension is only seldom achieved in patients affected by hypotensive syncope. Conventional ambulatory blood pressure (BP) monitoring (ABPM) has important limitations due to the short period of monitoring (usually 24-48 hours) and the intermittent nature of BP measurements (usually every 15-20 min).

The main purpose of this study is to assess the reliability of a new patient's self-administered wearable watch-type BP monitor in detecting episodes of hypotensive (pre)syncope. Secondary aim regards the estimation of feasibility of this tool.

Method The study is a prospective intrapatient comparison during tilt testing between BP measured by mean of a wearable watch-type BP monitor (Omron HeartGuide 6410T, Omron Healthcare, Kyoto, Japan) and by mean of the standard methods for continuous finger BP monitoring (Finometer®, Finapres Medical Systems, Enchede, The Netherlands, and Task Force® monitor, CNSystem, Graz, Austria), based on the photoplethysmographic volume clamp method .

Study design BP values observed during tilt testing baseline and at the time of impeding syncope will be measured by mean of the HeartGuide device and will be compared with the standard of reference of BP. BP will be recorded at rest at baseline, shortly after upright in tilting position (at stabilization), at the time of occurrence of impeding syncope (presyncope) or, alternatively at the time of maximum hypotensive effect, if syncope will not occur, and finally in the recovery period at the end of the test after returning in supine position.

What is being measured

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

  1. BP during event during tilt testing

    Difference between baseline (rest) BP and BP at the presyncopal event ("Delta BP slope") during tilt testing with HeartGuide and with control

    Measured: 2 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Compliance

    Number of patients who will show failure of HeartGuide to measure BP during tilt event

    Measured: 2 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HeartGuide cuffless BP monitor in people with Syncope, Vasovagal, run by Istituto Auxologico Italiano at 1 site in Italy.

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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Feb 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 Italy. 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?

BP during event during tilt testing (time frame: 2 hours). 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 20 Feb 2024.
