About this study

Oxidative stress is an unavoidable event during cardiac surgery. Isoprostanes have been demonstrated to be a reliable biomarker for the evaluation of oxidative stress in vivo.The aims of this study are(1)to develop an accurate liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry methods for the detection of urinary isoprostane isomers in samples collected from healthy volunteers(for method quality control) and patients receiving a cardiac surgery (2)to investigate the change of isoprostanes after cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) (3)to investigate the effect of different anesthetics on isoprostanes.

Read the detailed description

Enhanced production of oxygen free radicals can lead to the generation of oxidative stress, which is harmful to human tissue and organs. Reactive oxygen species are released abruptly during some surgical procedures, and they are the major causes of ischemia-reperfusion injuries.Isoprostanes have been demonstrated to be a reliable biomarker for the evaluation of oxidative stress in vivo. Therefore, accurately monitoring and avoiding the occurrence of oxidative stress during surgery is an important clinical issue.

Isoprostanes are a series of prostaglandin-like compounds produced by non-enzymatic peroxidation of arachidonic acid.The aims of this study are(1)to develop an accurate liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry methods for the detection of urinary isoprostane isomers in samples collected from patients receiving a cardiac surgery (2)to investigate the change of isoprostanes after cardiopulmonary bypass (3)to investigate the effect of different anesthetics on isoprostanes during surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Oxidative Stress and Cardiac Surgery, run by Chang Gung Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 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 26 Aug 2009. 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 Taiwan. 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?

isoprostanes isomer as marker of oxidative stress (time frame: one day). 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 26 Aug 2009.
