About this study

Official title: The Perioperative Course of Sublingual Microcirculatory Alterations in Patients Undergoing Extracorporeal Flow Conditions: Cold Blood Compared With Cristalloid Cardioplegia

The aim of this study is to observe the perioperative course of sublingual microcirculatory alterations in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) using cold blood compared with cristalloid cardioplegia. Additionally the impact of changes in hemodynamic parameters, blood gas, laboratory findings and standart therapy for intra and early postoperative period was studied. Intubation time, ICU stay, hospital stay, ICU readmission, morbidity and mortality were recorded.

Read the detailed description

The microcirculatory measurements were obtained in both groups in the sublingual mucosa using Cytocam imaging. The probe was handheld. Different precautions were taken and steps followed to obtain images of adequate quality and to ensure good reproducibility.

Images were made after induction of anesthesia (t0), before CBP 5 minutes after heparine (t1), 5 minutes after CBP beginning (t2), during CBP 10 minutes after crossclamp beginning (t3), after crossclamp ending when heart begins to beat (t4), after CBP 10 minutes after protamine (t5).

Additional images were made before (tc0) and after (tc1) vasoactive medication; before (tv0) and after (tv1) volume administration; before (tb0) and after (tb1) blood administration, (FFP, PLT).

At each timepoint adequate focus depth and contrast were noticed. Three steady images of 6 seconds were acquired and recorded on a device controller based on a powerful medical grade computer which is used for image storage and analysis.

Additionally macrocirculatory measurements were obtained at the same timepoints. Hemodynamic variables, temperature, blood gas, INVOS, StO2, laboratory findings and standart therapy were recorded. Additionally intubation time, ICU stay, hospital stay, ICU readmission, morbidity and mortality were studied.

What is being measured

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

  1. functional capillary density

    functional capillary density is expected to be lower in the cryaloide group

    Measured: moment of measurement

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. percentage perfused density

    a higher percentage of perfused vessel density is expected in the blood group

    Measured: time of measurement

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Microcirculatory Alterations, run by Frisius Medisch Centrum at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 4 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 13 Feb 2015. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

functional capillary density (time frame: moment of measurement). 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 13 Feb 2015.
