  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients who signed informed consent
  • Patients not undergoing emergency surgery.
  • Surgical procedures performed under normothermic conditions.
  • Patients with a minimum time of 40 minutes before decannulation (after the end of myocardial reperfusion, unclamping of the aorta and the end of CPB).

Who cannot join

  • Emergency medical condition in which it is not possible to collect study data.

About this study

Official title: Using Polysulfone Membranes on Continuous Ultrafiltration With Volume Replacement in Patients Undergoing Cardiac

This study aims to analyze the impact of using polysulfone membranes on continuous ultrafiltration with volume replacement in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. In this type of surgery, techniques such as conventional ultrafiltration (CUF) and modified ultrafiltration (MUF) are known for controlling the patient's fluid balance during the procedure. However, there is no scientific evidence on the benefits of continuous haemofiltration with volume replacement and its effect on lactatemia. Method and design: A single center randomized controlled trial, parallel treatment design with patient-blinded to compare outcomes in terms of the lactate clearance rates (quantity/unit of time) of the assigned therapy groups. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive the type of surgery, in order to ensure an unbiased assessment of treatments, randomisation will be performed in eight blocks of five patients. The study groups will be equivalent in all aspects except the procedures they undergo. Participants will be assigned to the first control group without haemofiltration (CG or 1) or one group with haemofiltration using a Polysulfone filter (PG or 2). Data will be collected by a blinded evaluator.

Read the detailed description

To determine whether continuous ultrafiltration with volume replacement using a polysulfone membrane during Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery decreases intraoperative lactatemia.

What participants receive

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

  • Polysulfone FilterProcedure or surgery

    The intervention for this group consisted using a Polysulfone filter in order to hemofiltration in the procedure involving Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB).The perfusionist's role is essential during the procedure, as they control both Cardiac Output (CO) and gas exchange, depending on their action, will affect blood lactate levels.

  • Procedure/ Surgery: without Polysulfone FilterProcedure or surgery

    In this group, no intervention is performed during the procedure involving Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB)

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Polysulfone Filter GroupExperimentalThe purpose of the research is to determine whether, by controlling the patient's hemodilution level and, therefore, the acute anaemia caused by the Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB) priming fluid, continuous conventional ultrafiltration (CUF) can decrease serum lactate levels during normothermic CPB by increasing the haematocrit and, consequently, the supply of oxygen to the tissues, and whether the haemofiltration membrane can remove lactate molecules in situations of hyperlactataemia in CPB.

What is being measured

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

  1. Plasma Lactate Level

    The lactate level will be measured before Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB) in all patients

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Maximum Plasma Lactate Level

    The maximum level of intraoperative lactate will be measured in all patients, whether the polysulfone membrane has been used or not during Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB)

    Measured: Every 20 minutes from the start of the Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB)

  2. Plasma Lactate Level

    The level of lactate level will be measured in all patients, whether the polysulfone membrane has been used or not at the end cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

    Measured: 1 minute after the Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB)

  3. Plasma Lactate Level in the effluent

    To determine lactate levels in the effluent in all ultrafiltered patients

    Measured: 1 minute after the Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB)

  4. Plasma Lactate Level in intensive care unit (ICU)

    Lactate level will be measured 24 hours after surgery in ICU stay

    Measured: 24 hours after the Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB)

  5. Serum potassium Level

    Serum potassium level measured in routine analysis blood

    Measured: Every 20 minutes from the start of the Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB)

  6. Evaluation criteria of mortality and risk profiles of population

    Mortality predicted and operative risk will be measured by scoring systems European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation (EuroSCORE I) in cardiac surgery in all patients

    Measured: 10 minutes before the Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB)

  7. Hematocrit

    Hematocrit measured in routine analysis blood in all patients

    Measured: Every 20 minutes from the start of the Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Polysulfone Filter and Procedure/ Surgery: without Polysulfone Filter in people with Cardiovascular Diseases, run by University of Cadiz at 1 site in Spain.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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 11 May 2018. 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 Spain. 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?

Plasma Lactate Level (time frame: Baseline). 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 11 May 2018.
