Trial summary

Cardiac surgery is associated with cardiac and cerebral injury because of ischemia/reperfusion in approximately one third of cases. Ischemic preconditioning (IPC), have been shown to reduce the extent of myocardial infarction (MI). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Randomized Control Trial of Effect of Remote Ischemic Postconditioning on Children Undergoing Cardiac Surgery

Cardiac surgery is associated with cardiac and cerebral injury because of ischemia/reperfusion in approximately one third of cases. Ischemic preconditioning (IPC), have been shown to reduce the extent of myocardial infarction (MI). As another ischemic conditioning, remote ischemic postconditioning, limits MI size in animal models. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the cardiac and cerebral protective effect of remote ischemic postconditioning in children undergoing cardiac surgery, as a single-center, randomized controlled trial.

Read the detailed description

Cardiac surgery is associated with Troponin release because of ischemia/reperfusion injury in approximately one third of cases. And I/R injury may also induce cerebral insult, even Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction (POCD).Transient sublethal episodes of ischemia before a prolonged ischemia/reperfusion injury, known as ischemic preconditioning (IPC), have been shown to reduce the extent of myocardial infarction (MI).And remote ischemic postconditioning(RIPoC), as another ischemic condition, limits MI size in animal models.

However, there are limited outcome to demonstrate protection from RIPoC during cardiac surgery. The purpose of this study is to investigate the cardiac and cerebral protective effect of remote ischemic postconditioning , as a single-center, randomized controlled trial.

What participants receive

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

  • Remote ischemic postconditioningProcedure or surgery

    Also called Limb ischemic postconditioning

    At the time of reperfusion, remote ischaemic postconditioning will be induced by inflating a cuff around leg to 100 mmHg for 5 mins followed by 5 mins of reperfusion. This cycle will be repeated 3 times.

controlNo interventionA blood cuff was around leg without inflation or deflation.

What is being measured

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

  1. cTnI,CK-MB concentration

    The primary outcome is assessing whether cTnI or CK-MB concentration reduce at 24 hours after remote ischemic postconditioning.

    Measured: 24h after Remote Ischemic Postconditioning

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. NSE,S100β concentration

    The secondary outcome is assessing whether NSE or S100-β concentration reduce at 24 hours after remote ischemic postcondioning.

    Measured: 24 hours after Remote Ischemic Postconditioning

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Remote ischemic postconditioning in people with Ischemia and Bypass Complications, run by Xijing Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 6 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 24 Jul 2013. 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 China. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

cTnI,CK-MB concentration (time frame: 24h after Remote Ischemic Postconditioning). 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 24 Jul 2013.
