NCT ID NCT07230964

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This early study looks at whether a non-invasive test called impedance cardiography (the HYPERGRAPH test) can detect early signs of heart failure in people with aortic stenosis, a condition where the heart's main valve narrows. Researchers will compare the test results with heart MRI scans in 6 adults who have not had a heart attack or certain other heart conditions. The goal is to see if the HYPERGRAPH test can reliably identify when the heart is struggling, which could lead to earlier treatment.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * • Male or female at least 18 years of age. * No prior history of myocardial infarction or cardiac amyloidosis. * Recent CMR scan with late gadolinium enhancement or scheduled for CMR scan with late gadolinium enhancement. * A history of: * Moderate aortic stenosis and no replacement fibrosis OR Moderate aortic stenosis and symptoms who has replacement fibrosis OR Severe aortic stenosis with replacement fibrosis prior to aortic valve replacement. * Able to comprehend and provide informed consent in English. * Participants must have intact, healthy skin at the electrode application sites. Exclusion Criteria: * • Under 18 years of age * Pregnant or breastfeeding women * Unable to consent * Prisoners * History of myocardial infarction * History of cardiac amyloidosis * Patients with any metal or implant such as IUD, braces, metal fragments implants in the eye, pacemakers (especially Minute Ventilation pacemakers with the MV function activated) defibrillators, or any other electronic cardiac implant. * Claustrophobic or afraid or small places. * Severe obesity (BMI \> 40) that impairs accurate ICG measurement due to difficulties in electrode placement or excessive impedance. * Active skin conditions, such as rashes, open wound or significant skin sensitivity at the electrode placement sites.
