Study summary

Currently, research on the effect of thiamine administration during transcatheter closure on the structure and function of the left ventricle by examining levels of matrix metalloproteinase-9 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 in children with left to right shunt congenital heart disease has never been carried out in Indonesia, so it is necessary carried out this research. This research was carried out by administering 100 mg of thiamine once per day to patients post transcatheter closure for 28 days. The parameters assessed were MMP-9, TIMP-1, and echocardiography to assess the structure and function of the left ventricle in CHD patients with left to right shunt lesions.

Read the detailed description

Specifically the investigators want to study about :

  1. The differences in serum levels of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in patients with congenital heart disease with left to right shunt lesions after transcatheter closure who received thiamine and those who did not receive thiamine.
  2. The differences in serum tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 levels in patients with congenital heart disease with left to right shunt lesions after transcatheter closure who received thiamine and those who did not receive thiamine.
  3. The differences in left ventricular structure in patients with congenital heart disease with left to right shunt lesions after transcatheter closure who receive thiamine and those who do not receive thiamine.
  4. The differences in left ventricular function in patients with congenital heart disease with left to right shunt lesions after transcatheter closure who receive thiamine and those who do not receive thiamine.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Patients aged 6 months - 18 years.
  2. Patients diagnosed with left to right shunt lesion CHD with heart failure based on ROSS or criteria.
  3. Patients who will undergo intervention with transcatheter closure.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients who experienced acute infections before the procedure.
  2. There are other heart defects that require surgery.
  3. There is a hereditary, genetic disorder, syndrome or other chronic disease.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

NYHA class (heart failure)

The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.

I
No limits: ordinary activity causes no undue tiredness or breathlessness.
II
Slight limits: comfortable at rest, ordinary activity causes symptoms.
III
Marked limits: comfortable at rest, less than ordinary activity causes symptoms.
IV
Symptoms even at rest; any activity makes them worse.

Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Correlation between transcatheter closure and left ventricular structure change after thiamine treatment

    The left ventricular structure of each participant is measured with echocardiography at the beginning and the end of the study and then the investigators calculate the left ventricular structure change (in percentage, %)

    Time frame: 1 day before transcather closure and 28 days after trancatheter closure

Secondary outcomes

  1. Correlation between transcatheter closure and left ventricular function change after thiamine treatment

    The left ventricular function of each participant is measured with echocardiography at the beginning and the end of the study and then the investigators calculate the left ventricular function change (in percentage, %)

    Time frame: 1 day before transcather closure and 28 days after trancatheter closure

  2. Correlation between transcatheter closure and serum matrix metalloproteinase-9 level change after thiamine treatment

    The serum matrix metalloproteinase-9 level of each participant is measured at the beginning and the end of the study and then the investigators calculate the level change (in percentage, %)

    Time frame: 1 day before transcather closure and 28 days after trancatheter closure

  3. Correlation between transcatheter closure and serum tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 level change after thiamine treatment

    The serum tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 level of each participant is measured at the beginning and the end of the study and then the investigators calculate the level change (in percentage, %)

    Time frame: 1 day before transcather closure and 28 days after trancatheter closure

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 24, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
