Secondary study design | Randomised controlled trial |
Study setting(s) | Not specified |
Study type | Treatment |
Scientific title | |
Study acronym | ARBs and systemic right ventricles. |
Study objectives | Treatment with an angiotensin II receptor blocker (valsartan) stabilises or improves the functional performance of the systemic right ventricle. |
Ethics approval(s) | Ethics approval received from the local medical ethics committee |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Transposition of the great arteries, systemic right ventricle |
Intervention | One group receives twice daily a 160 mg tablet of valsartan and the other group receives twice daily a placebo tablet. |
Intervention type | Drug |
Pharmaceutical study type(s) | |
Phase | Not Specified |
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s) | Valsartan |
Primary outcome measure | The change in right ventricular ejection fraction, determined by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) (valsartan versus placebo). In patients who are not eligible for CMR the right ventricular ejection fraction is determined by echocardiography. |
Secondary outcome measures | 1. Changes congestive heart failure? 2. Changes the prevalence of supra-ventricular arrhythmias? 3. Changes in right ventricular function, determined by body surface mapping? 4. Changes the right ventricular volume? 5. Changes the peak oxygen consumption during exercise? 6. Changes the serum neurohormone levels? 7. Changes the quality of life and sport activity? 8. Changes the cardiac output and microcirculation? 9. Changes the number of deaths? |
