About this study

Official title: High-dose Ulinastatin Improves Postoperative Oxygenation in Patients Undergoing Aortic Valve Surgery With Cardiopulmonary Bypass

Retrospective study determine whether ulinastatin enhances postoperative pulmonary oxygenation after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

Read the detailed description

This retrospective study evaluate patients who underwent aortic valvular surgery under moderate hypothermic CPB. The patients were classified into two groups: patients in whom high-dose ulinastatin (10,000 U/kg and 5,000 U/kg/h) was administered during CPB (Group-U); and patients in whom ulinastatin was not administered (Group-C). We measured PaO2/FiO2 at the following time points: before CPB (Pre-CPB), 2 hours after weaning from CPB (Post-CPB) and within 6 hours after admission to the ICU. The lengths of ventilator care and ICU stay were also reviewed.

What is being measured

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

  1. change of arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2)/fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) during CPB

    pulmonary oxygenation

    Measured: before CPB (Day 0), 2hours after CPB(Day 0), within 6hour after admission to intensive care unit(Day 0)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing ulinastatin in people with Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Cardiac Surgery, run by Konkuk University Medical Center at 2 sites in South Korea.

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 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 16 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in South Korea. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

change of arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2)/fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) during CPB (time frame: before CPB (Day 0), 2hours after CPB(Day 0), within 6hour after admission to intensive care unit(Day 0)). 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 16 May 2017.
