Trial summary

Preconditioning (PC) of the heart occurs when brief exposure to a stimulus protects the heart from subsequent ischemia. PC stimulus may be (ischemic ; pharmacologic or Physical). Read more about this study

Read the detailed description

Preconditioning (PC) of the heart occurs when brief exposure to a stimulus protects the heart from subsequent ischemia. PC stimulus may be ( ischemic ; pharmacologic or Physical)

Pharmacological PC may be induced by variable agents e.g. (Sevoflurane ;isoflorane, opioids etc)

Ischemic PC includes local; remote and the idea is temporary interruption of blood supply to the organ so that liberation of protective mediators occurs. The liberated mediators have favorable effects not only upon the myocardium, but it extend to protect other organs against inflammatory activation; ischemia reperfusion injury

Inotropic score (IS) is already an evident predictor of postoperative cardiac morbidity and mortality

Aim of the work:

Is to validate the impact of Sevoflurane versus ischemic \& Sevoflurane PC upon postoperative inotropic score in adult patient undergoing open heart surgery

Being tested
A pharmacologic cardiac preconditioning (Sevoflurane), B ischeamic preconditioning
Keywords
Myocardial Preconditioning, inotropic score
Medical subject headings
Myocardial Ischemia

What participants receive

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

  • A pharmacologic cardiac preconditioning (Sevoflurane)Drug

    A Patients are anaesthetized by Sevoflurane more than 1 mac.

  • B ischeamic preconditioningProcedure or surgery

    B ischemic preconditioning will be done after induction and before cardiopulmonary bypass by inflation the cuff of blood pressure above 200mmhg in the lower limb every 5 min for 3cycles

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing A pharmacologic cardiac preconditioning (Sevoflurane) and B ischeamic preconditioning in people with Myocardial Ischemia, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 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 12 Dec 2017. 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 Egypt. 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?

Highest inotropic score (time frame: first 24 hour). 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 12 Dec 2017.
