About this study

Official title: Peri-Operative Morbidity and Quality of Life After CABG

It is the long term objective of this study to preserve or improve the quality of life and to prevent deterioration in physical and mental function following myocardial revascularization among bypass surgery patients.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of two strategies of intra-operative hemodynamic management in preventing peri-operative cardiac, cognitive and neurologic morbidity and mortality and postoperative deterioration in the patient's quality of life.

Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Regulating Mean Arterial Pressure during cardiopulmonary bypassProcedure or surgery

    Also called Mean Arterial Pressure during cardiopulmonary bypass 50-60 mm/Hg (control) vs. 80-100 mm/Hg (experimental)

    Patients were randomized to one of two groups. In the first group (Low) the goal was to maintain MAP between 50-60 mm Hg during CPB. In the second group (High), the goal was to maintain MAP between 80-100 mm Hg. In both groups, CPB flow was held constant at 1.6 L/min/M2 (cool) and 2.4 L/min/M2 (warm) and vasoactive drugs (nitroglycerin or phenylephrine) were used to maintain MAP in the desired range. MAP was controlled in this fashion from the onset of CPB through separation from CPB began.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Regulating Mean Arterial Pressure during cardiopulmonary bypass in people with Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery, run by Weill Medical College of Cornell University at 1 site in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Apr 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cardiac morbidity (time frame: 6-months after surgery). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 11 Apr 2008.
