About this study

Official title: Comparison Of Mini-Bypass To Conventional Cardiopulmonary Bypass In Asian Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery

Our intention is to perform a randomized controlled trial to compare the efficacy and safety of mini cardiopulmonary bypass system to a modified conventional bypass circuit in 80 Asian patients undergoing elective CABG. Our intend is to confirm the efficacy of mini-bypass in reducing haemodilution and reducing blood transfusions, and investigate if this is associated with reduced inflammation and better cardiovascular, neurological, renal, respiratory and infection outcome.

Read the detailed description

Mini-bypass systems have the potential to reduce the problems associated with conventional cardiopulmonary bypass systems by preserving hematocrit, reducing transfusion requirements, and reducing inflammation. Intuitively, this system would be ideal for our smaller Asian patients, who as a result of their body sizes, are prone to severe hemodilution and increased transfusion requirements. However, our initial results based on established Western protocols were not as good as the investigators hoped. Using a modified protocol, the investigators were able to reduce perioperative blood transfusion. Therefore, the investigators intend to prospectively confirm the efficacy of mini-bypass in conjunction with our modified protocol in reducing haemodilution and reducing blood transfusions. The investigators will also establish the safety of this protocol, and investigate if this is associated with reduced inflammation and better cardiovascular, neurological, renal, respiratory and infection outcomes.

80 Asian patients undergoing primary coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass will be randomly divided either to utilize the mini-bypass system (Extra Corporeal Circuit Optimized; Phisio, Sorin Group, Italy) or the conventional system. Anaesthesia, surgical and perfusion management will be standardized, except for measures specific to the establishment of mini-bypass. The primary outcome measures will be haemodilution (first and lowest hematocrit) during cardiopulmonary bypass, blood loss in the first 24 and 48 hours post-operatively, and perioperative blood transfusions. Secondary outcomes include safety profile (air embolization, hypoperfusion), inflammation (TNF-alpha, interleukin-6, C-reactive protein, lactate dehydrogenase) in the first 72 hours after bypass, clinical outcomes (renal, neurological, cardiac, respiratory) and resource utilization (blood utilization, length of stay).

This project will allow us to confirm our retrospective findings that mini-bypass systems in conjunction with our modified protocol will benefit our smaller patients haematologically and lead to tremendous savings in blood utilization. The investigators will also establish if this protocol is safe, and if there are additional benefits in terms of inflammation, clinical outcomes and resource utilization. Our findings will also be applicable throughout East Asia, as patients in the region generally lag our Western counterparts in size.

What is being measured

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

  1. Acute kidney injury

    Meeting AKIN 1 criteria

    Measured: 48 hours after surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Neurocognitive decline

    Use of Neurocognitive test / questionnaire: Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS)

    Measured: 3 months post surgery

  2. Inflammation

    Markers for inflammation will be measured preoperatively, and daily till the 3rd postoperative day, including TNF-alpha, IL-6 and C-Reactive Protein.

    Measured: 72 hours post surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Utilization of the mini CPB circuit and Utilization of the conventional circuit in people with Acute Kidney Injury and Neurological Injury, run by National University Hospital, Singapore at 1 site in Singapore.

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 7 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 5 Sep 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 Singapore. 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.

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?

Acute kidney injury (time frame: 48 hours after surgery). 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 NCT03657225, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 5 Sep 2018.
