About this study

Official title: The Safety and Influencing Factors of Ultrasound-guided Percutaneous Intramyocardial Septal Radiofrequency Ablation (Liwen Procedure) in The Treatment of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Liwen procedure is generally safe and effective in treating hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, but a small proportion of patients have complications after the operation.

The goal of this observational study is to explore the incidence of postoperative complications of the Liwen procedure in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients underwent Liwen procedure in Xijing Hospital. The main question it aims to answer are:

  • What is the incidence of complications in HCM patients underwent Liwen Procedure during postoperative hospitalization and a short-term follow-up period?
  • What is the relevant factors of complications in HCM patients who underwent Liwen Procedure during postoperative hospitalization and short-term follow-up period? Can the complications of surgical patients during postoperative hospitalization be predicted? Participants have been evaluated using a variety of medical examinations before they underwent Liwen Procedure. Variants collected from medical examination and case history were used to analyze the association with each postoperative complication.

What participants receive

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

  • Percutaneous Intramyocardial Septal Radiofrequency Ablation for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (Liwen Procedure)Procedure or surgery

    Under transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) guidance, the puncture site is positioned at the apex. A guiding line is applied along the septal long axis and the radiofrequency ablation electrode needle(17G, Cool-tip™ RF Ablation System and Switching Controller;Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) pierced towards the hypertrophic anterior interventricular septum (AIVS) 8-10 mm from the subaortic valve. Each ablation lasts for up to 12 min and the ablation power is gradually increased from 30-40W. Then, the ablation needle is withdrawn 10 mm to prepare for the next application. Overall, 3-4 applications are performed in each patient. The ablation creates an area of thermal coagulative myocardial necrosis that appears as a hyperechogenic reflection detected by TTE. If deemed necessary, we repeat the procedure at the posterior interventricular septum (PIVS).

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative Complications During Hospitalization

    Complications including symptomatic postoperative hypotension observed during hospitalization after PIMSRA. The symptomatic postoperative hypotension is defined as systolic blood pressure lower than 90 mmHg documented by invasive or noninvasive blood pressure measurement accompanied by symptoms including dizziness, and cephalalgia, without regard to the duration of hypotension.

    Measured: From date of procedure until the date of first documented occurrence of symptomatic hypotension, or date of dischargement from hospital, assessed up to 1 month.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Postoperative Complications During Follow-up Period

    Complications including chronic hypotension or orthostatic hypotension observed during the follow-up period. Chronic hypotension is defined as mean systolic/diastolic blood pressure lower than 90/60 mmHg documented by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring of more than 23 hours. Orthostatic hypotension is defined as a frop of standing and mean sitting SBP ≥20 mm Hg or diastolic BP ≥10 mm Hg, with complaining of dizziness or fall.

    Measured: From date of dischargement until the date of first diagnosis of chronic hypotension or orthostatic hypotension, assessed up to 1 year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy, run by Xijing 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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Aug 2023. 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?

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?

Postoperative Complications During Hospitalization (time frame: From date of procedure until the date of first documented occurrence of symptomatic hypotension, or date of dischargement from hospital, assessed up to 1 month.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06003478, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Aug 2023.
