About this study

Official title: Prophylactic Preoperative Inatraaortic Balloon Pump (IABP) in High-risk Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery (CABG)

Due to advances and increased practice of interventional therapy for coronary artery disease, the rate of high-risk patients with severe coronary disease and reduced left ventricular function among patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (CABG) is increasing. The perioperative mortality in these patients is ≥ 5%. The perioperative and operative management for these patients has to be optimized in order to reduce their perioperative morbidity and mortality. One of the central aspects is perioperative maintenance of hemodynamic stability. The use of prophylactic IABP is a partly established, but not sufficiently evidence-based measure to reduce ventricular afterload and improve coronary perfusion pre-, intra- and postoperatively. Yet, it is an invasive procedure with potential complications. The planned trial should give an explicit answer, whether preoperative prophylactic IABP decreases 30-day all-cause mortality (primary endpoint) and long-term mortality (3, 6, 12 months; secondary endpoints) compared to preoperative conservative treatment in high-risk patients undergoing CABG.

What is being measured

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

  1. 30-day all-cause mortality post CABG [%]

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Survival at 3, 6, 12 months [%]

    Measured: 3, 6 and 12 months

  2. Duration of ICU stay [h]

    Measured: 48 hours (average)

  3. Dependence on medical inotropic support

    Measured: 48 hours (average)

  4. IABP-associated complications

    IABP-associated complications occur most often during IABP-support. However, after weaning from IABP, patients can still have bleeding complications or thrombembolic complications. Therefore, IABP-associated complications are monitored during the whole hospital stay

    Measured: 8 days (average)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Preoperative IABC in people with Myocardial Infarction and Coronary Artery Disease, run by University of Giessen 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 6 inclusion and 7 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 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 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

30-day all-cause mortality post CABG [%] (time frame: 30 days). 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 22 Nov 2021.
