Trial summary

On-pump CABG surgery deleteriously affects hematological and coagulation profiles of patients and this effect was accentuated by the use of cold bypass. PO altered platelet may count and function and prolonged clotting times correlates with amount of daily PO blood wound drainage and number of blood products units… Read more about this study

About this study

On-pump CABG surgery deleteriously affects hematological and coagulation profiles of patients and this effect was accentuated by the use of cold bypass. PO altered platelet may count and function and prolonged clotting times correlates with amount of daily PO blood wound drainage and number of blood products units used, but prolonged aPTT is the best predictor for these events.

Read the detailed description

Background: The use of cardiopulmonary bypass during cardiac surgery negatively affects the coagulation system. Hypothermia is also known to inhibit the coagulation profile. The aim of the study is to assess and compare the early postoperative (PO) haematological and coagulation profile of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery with Hypothermic (HT) versus normothermic (NT) bypass Methods: eighty-six patients were divided into two equal groups: NT group included patients received warm bypass and using warm blood cardioplegia from bypass and HT group included patients received cold bypass and using cold cardioplegia given by the anaesthesiologist. PO monitoring included the activated clotting time (ACT) prior to wound closure and 2-hr changes in the haemoglobin concentration (Hb), platelet count (PC), ADP-induced platelet aggregation (IPA), INR in relation to preoperative profile and amount of PO daily blood loss and number of transfused blood units. The primary outcome was the PO alternations in the coagulation and haematological profile. The secondary outcome was the amount of PO daily bleeding, number of transfused blood units and incidence of re-opening surgery due to bleeding.

What participants receive

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

  • Normothermic groupProcedure or surgery

    Also called Hypothermic group

    1. Normothermic group (NT group) included patients will undergo CABG under warm bypass using warm blood cardioplegia (Normothermic CBP).
    2. Hypothermic group (HT group) included patients will undergo CABG under cold bypass using cold blood cardioplegia (Hypothermic CBP).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Normothermic group in people with CABG Surgery, Cold Blood Cardioplegia, Coagulation Profile and Platelet Function, run by Cairo 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 4 Nov 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 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?

Postoperative alternations in the coagulation and haematological profile (time frame: One day Postoperative). 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 4 Nov 2019.
