About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Systemic Microcirculation in the Course of Cardiopulmonary Bypass Used in the Surgery for Repair of Congenital Heart Defects in Infants and Children

General objective of the research project: To evaluate the alterations of systemic microvascular reactivity during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), in children submitted to cardiac surgery for repair of congenital heart defects.

Read the detailed description
  • Specific objectives:
  • To test the usefulness of skin laser Doppler flowmetry monitoring (LDPM) in the non-invasive evaluation of endothelium-dependent microvascular reactivity during CPB in children.
  • To investigate whether skin LDPM could be proposed as a clinical monitoring of tissue perfusion during CPB in pediatric cardiac surgery.
  • To investigate the effects of different anesthetic agents on microvascular reactivity during CPB.
  • To investigate the effects of cardiovascular and vasoactive drugs used during CPB on microvascular reactivity.
  • To evaluate the correlation of microcirculatory alterations observed during CPB with classical markers of tissue perfusion and oxygenation, including plasma lactate levels.
  • To evaluate the correlation of microcirculatory alterations observed during CPB with markers of systemic inflammation, including pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines.
  • To evaluate the correlation of microcirculatory alterations observed during CPB with the plasma bioavailability of nitric oxide.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Congenital Heart Disease, run by National Institute of Cardiology, Laranjeiras, Brazil at 1 site in Brazil.

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 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 21 Aug 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 Brazil. 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?

Microcirculatory alterations during cardiopulmonary bypass (time frame: december 2019). 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 21 Aug 2019.
