About this study

Official title: Thrombelastogram and Predicting Microvascular Bleeding in Patients Receiving Antiplatelet Medication Undergoing Cardiac Surgery

Study Objective is to correlate the results of preoperative platelet mapping derived from modified TEG with clinically significant postoperative bleeding and consumption of blood products.

Read the detailed description

Study Design:

Prospective observational study with blinded assessment of study endpoint variables. Collection of information concerning study endpoints will be performed by the investigator blinded to the results of preoperative testing of platelet function. The information will be collected from 60 patients undergoing cardiac surgery in the Department of Cardiac Surgery of Sheba Medical Center.

Study endpoints

  1. Primary endpoint- resternotomy for bleeding after the surgery.
  2. Secondary endpoints- chest tube output during first 24 hours after the surgery; consumption of blood products during first 3 postoperative days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bleeding, run by Sheba Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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 1 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 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 Israel. 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?

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Re-sternotomy d/t Bleeding (time frame: Hospitalization Period). 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 23 Oct 2008.
