What is being measured

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

  1. Change in ADAMTS13-Activity over time

    Measured: during surgery (at 1and 2 hours after beginning) and within the first 6 days after surgery

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change in ADAMTS13-Antibody over time

    Measured: during surgery (at 1and 2 hours after beginning) and within the first 6 days after surgery

  2. Change in Platelet count over time

    Measured: during surgery (at 1and 2 hours after beginning) and within the first 6 days after surgery

  3. time duration of extracorporeal circulation during surgery

    Measured: during surgery

  4. Amount of intraoperative given fluid replacement

    Measured: during surgery

  5. Amount of given blood products (red blood cells)

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Surgery, run by Johann Wolfgang Goethe University Hospital at 1 site in Germany.

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 2 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 29 Dec 2011. 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 Germany. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Wolfgang Miesbach (+49696301 ext. 5051, wolfgang.miesbach@kgu.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in ADAMTS13-Activity over time (time frame: during surgery (at 1and 2 hours after beginning) and within the first 6 days after surgery). 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 29 Dec 2011.
