What is being measured

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

  1. Sensitivity and specificity of multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter for calculating Coronary Flow Reserve (CFR) in diagnosing Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction (CMD)

    Using study participants as the unit of study, and with Myocardial Perfusion Reserve (MPR) calculated by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) quantitative myocardial perfusion imaging as the reference (MPR<2.2 is positive, MPR≥2.2 is negative), the sensitivity and specificity of CFR calculated by multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter for diagnosing CMD (CFR<2.5 is positive, CFR≥2.5 is negative) were evaluated.

    Measured: Intraoperative period (day 0) and post-operative (days 1-7)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter calculation of CFR for diagnosing CMD: accuracy, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (ROC), and Area Under the Curve(AUC)

    Using study participants as the unit of study, and with MPR calculated by CMR quantitative myocardial perfusion imaging as a reference (MPR<2.2 as positive, MPR≥2.2 as negative), the accuracy, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, ROC, and AUC of CFR calculated by multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter for diagnosing CMD (CFR<2.5 as positive, CFR≥2.5 as negative) were evaluated.

    Measured: Intraoperative period (day 0) and post-operative (days 1-7)

  2. Pearson correlation analysis and Bland-Altman bias analysis of CFR calculated by multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter and MPR calculated by CMR quantitative myocardial perfusion imaging.

    Using blood vessels as the research unit, Pearson correlation analysis and Bland-Altman bias analysis were performed on the CFR calculated by multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter and the MPR calculated by CMR quantitative myocardial perfusion imaging.

    Measured: Intraoperative period (day 0) and post-operative (days 1-7)

  3. Pearson correlation analysis of multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter measurements of Tmn,rest and Tmn,hyper with CMR quantitative myocardial perfusion imaging measurements of MBFrest and MBFhyper.

    Using blood vessels as the unit of study, Pearson correlation analysis was performed on the Mean Transit Time in the resting state (Tmn,rest) and the Mean Transit Time in the hyperemia state (Tmn,hyper) measured by multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter,Myocardial Blood Flow in the resting state (MBFrest) and Myocardial Blood Flow in the hyperemia state (MBFhyper) by CMR quantitative myocardial perfusion imaging,respectively.

    Measured: Intraoperative period (day 0) and post-operative (days 1-7)

  4. Multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter calculation of Index of Microcirculatory Resistance (IMR) for diagnosing CMD: accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, ROC, and AUC.

    Using study participants as the unit of study, and with MPR calculated by CMR quantitative myocardial perfusion imaging as a reference (MPR<2.2 as positive, MPR≥2.2 as negative), the accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, ROC, and AUC of IMR calculated by multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter for the diagnosis of CMD (IMR<25 as negative, IMR≥25 as positive) were evaluated.

    Measured: Intraoperative period (day 0) and post-operative (days 1-7)

  5. Multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter calculation of Microvascular Resistance Reserve (MRR) for diagnosing CMD: accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, ROC, and AUC.

    Using study participants as the unit of study, and with MPR calculated by CMR quantitative myocardial perfusion imaging as a reference (MPR<2.2 is positive, MPR≥2.2 is negative), the accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, ROC, and AUC of MRR calculated by multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter for the diagnosis of CMD (MRR<2.1 is positive, MRR≥2.1 is negative) were evaluated.

    Measured: Intraoperative period (day 0) and post-operative (days 1-7)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction (CMD), run by Peking University Third Hospital at 5 sites 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 5 inclusion and 10 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 30 Jul 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites 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?

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?

Contact Ming Cui (010-82266699, mingcui@bjmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sensitivity and specificity of multi-sensor wireless pressure microcatheter for calculating Coronary Flow Reserve (CFR) in diagnosing Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction (CMD) (time frame: Intraoperative period (day 0) and post-operative (days 1-7)). 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 30 Jul 2026.
