Trial summary

The investigators evaluated clinical impact of reduced heparin responsiveness (HRreduced) on the incidence of perioperative myocardial infarction (MI) and restenosis at 6 months after off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery (OPCAB) and identified its predictors. Read more about this study

What participants receive

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

  • HeparinDrug

    150 U/kg heparin was administered intravenously at the beginning of graft anastomosis and accepted a perioperative ACT value of around 300 s. Ten minutes after the loading dose, the ACT was measured. An ACT of 300 s or greater was considered as adequate. Then follow up ACT measurement was determined after 30 min from the previous ACT measurement. If ACT fell below the target value of 300 s, an additional dose of heparin was administered. If ACT was between 250 and 299 s, additional 2000 U of heparin was administered and if ACT was between 200 and 249 s then additional 3000 U of heparin was injected. Ten minutes after additional heparin injection, ACT was remeasured.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. incidences of postoperative MI and major morbidity

    Measured: immediate postoperative period

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. incidences of cardiac morbidities

    Measured: 6 months following surgery

  2. restenosis of graft vessels

    Measured: 6 months following surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Heparin in people with Off Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 Feb 2012. 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 South Korea. 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?

incidences of postoperative MI and major morbidity (time frame: immediate postoperative 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 2 Feb 2012.
