Trial Outcomes & Findings for Ultrasound Elastography to Predict Development of SOS (NCT NCT03858530)

NCT ID: NCT03858530

Last Updated: 2024-09-04

Results Overview

We performed SWE exams once a week for all of our patients. We looked at when patients met clinical criteria for VOD/SOS and then we looked at the SWE exams that were performed before the clinical diagnosis. If the exam immediately preceding the date of clinical diagnosis crossed the threshold for SWE diagnosis, then a frequency of 7 days was sufficient. If it did not, then testing should be more frequent. If multiple preceding exams were positive by SWE, then the optimal testing frequency could be longer than 7 days.

Measure
All Patients Enrolled
All patients will undergo limited abdominal US with Doppler and SWE once a week upon admission for conditioning until the patient day +30 BMT or discharge, whichever comes first. Additional ultrasounds will also be performed if SOS is suspected. Ultrasound Examination: Grayscale ultrasound, Doppler ultrasound, ultrasound elastography with or without ultrasound intravenous contrast will be performed.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Study period

Population: Data was not collected for this outcome variables because we can't get the software to collect this data.

Quantify relative ability to CEUS parameters versus grayscale and Doppler ultrasound. We will compare sensitivity and specificity of time to peak and mean transit time to grayscale and Doppler ultrasound variables for VOD diagnosis.
