About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Study on Intra-operative Autologous Transfusion With the Sangvia® Blood Salvage System in Spinal Surgery

The study is an open, randomized, controlled, single-centre study including a total of 42 evaluable subjects scheduled for spinal surgery with an approximate expected bleeding of 800-1500 ml. The Sangvia® Blood Salvage System will be set up for all subjects to collect blood intra-operatively. When the transfusion bag is filled, i.e. when around 500 ml of blood has been collected, the subject will be randomized to either be retransfused with the blood collected (investigational group) or not (control group). The primary objective for this study is to investigate the blood quality and isolate the systemic effects in intra-operatively collected blood. The systemic p-Hb concentration has been chosen as the primary outcome variable based on previous experience and literature and is considered as the major safety concern for the study subjects.

    Systemic IL-1-α concentration from screening until 96 hours after surgery.

    Measured: At screening and up until 96 hours after surgery (surgery takes place 1-7 days after screening)

  6. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) Concentration

    Systemic IL-6 concentration from screening until 96 hours after surgery.

    Measured: At screening and up until 96 hours after surgery (surgery takes place 1-7 days after screening)

  7. Interleukin-8 (IL-8) Concentration

    Systemic IL-8 concentration from screening until 96 hours after surgery.

    Measured: At screening and up until 96 hours after surgery (surgery takes place 1-7 days after screening)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sangvia in people with Spinal Surgery, run by Wellspect HealthCare at 1 site in Denmark.

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 3 inclusion and 16 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 Nov 2021. 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 Denmark. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Apr 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Difference in Plasma Free Hemoglobin (p-Hb) Concentration (time frame: At screening and 24 hours after surgery (surgery takes place 1-7 days after screening)). 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 Nov 2021.
