Trial summary

The number of patients undergoing Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery (MICS) is increasing each year. MICS procedures on atrioventricular valves are usually performed without conventional sternotomy, an alternative approach is from right anterolateral minithoracotomy. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Postoperative Patency of Internal Jugular Vein After Neck Cannula Insertion in Patients Undergoing Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery

The number of patients undergoing Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery (MICS) is increasing each year. MICS procedures on atrioventricular valves are usually performed without conventional sternotomy, an alternative approach is from right anterolateral minithoracotomy. This surgical approach has essential impact both on anesthesia techniques and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) settings. Specific anesthesiological procedure is an insertion of neck venous cannula of CPB through the right internal jugular vein into the superior vena cava both for partial and total bypass. The size of neck cannula is between 15 and 21 French depending on the type of surgical procedure and patient's weight. Central venous catheter and eventually sheath are also inserted into the right internal jugular vein. Thus, there is a relevant question regarding postoperative patency of right internal jugular vein in patients undergoing MICS procedures requiring an insertion of neck cannula of CPB. The investigators hypothesize, there is no significant difference in postoperative patency of internal jugular vein assessed by ultrasound in patient undergoing cardiac surgery with and without neck cannula of CPB

What participants receive

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

  • Neck cannula insertionProcedure or surgery

    Neck cannula insertion is necessary for establishing of cardiopulmonary bypass for Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery. It is routine procedure for this type of cardiac surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Surgical Procedure, run by University Hospital Hradec Kralove at 1 site in Czechia.

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 1 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 23 Jul 2019. 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 Czechia. 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?

Postoperative patency of internal jugular vein (time frame: 7 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02456259, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 23 Jul 2019.
