Trial summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the safety and effectiveness of pulmonary artery banding(PAB) therapy in pediatric heart failure(PHF) patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can PAB therapy improve left ventricular(LV) function in PHF patients especially refractory PHF. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Comprehensive Research of Pediatric Heart Failure -- A Self-control Study of Pulmonary Artery Banding for the Improvement of Left Ventricular Function in Pediatric Heart Failure

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the safety and effectiveness of pulmonary artery banding(PAB) therapy in pediatric heart failure(PHF) patients.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Can PAB therapy improve left ventricular(LV) function in PHF patients especially refractory PHF.
  • Can the complications caused by the PAB therapy be clinically acceptable? Participants underwent PAB therapy will be required to underwent echocardiography, electrocardiograms, complete blood counts, biochemical tests, and measurements of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) follow-up before the initiation of PAB and at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after PAB surgery. Researchers will compare the LV function 6 months after PAB suergey and the preoperative ones to see if there is improvement.

What is being measured

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

  1. the recurrence rate of heart failure

    During follow-up visits, echocardiographic examination is conducted to measure the left ventricular function. If LVEF falls under 55%, it is recorded as a recurrence.

    Measured: after 6 months of PAB surgery

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. NT-proBNP level

    The trend in NT-proBNP levels.

    Measured: after 6 months of PAB surgery

  2. Incidence rate of drug adverse reactions

    The incidence of abnormalities in complete blood count, electrolytes, liver and kidney function, and cardiac enzymes.

    Measured: after 6 months of PAB surgery

  3. Readmission rate for heart failure

    During follow-up visits, readmission for heart failure will be recorded.

    Measured: after 6 months of PAB surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure Congenital, run by China National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases 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 2 inclusion and 8 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 15 Sep 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?

Contact Kai Ma, PhD (+86 15901428497, drmakaifw@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the recurrence rate of heart failure (time frame: after 6 months of PAB surgery). 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 Sep 2023.
