Trial summary

Cardiac surgery needs the use of cardiopulmonary bypass. During this time, it is necessary to prevent thrombosis with high level of heparin and to control the good efficiency with a point of care test. Investigators want to test if two different devices, Hemochron and Istat, are giving similar results. Read more about this study

About this study

Cardiac surgery needs the use of cardiopulmonary bypass. During this time, it is necessary to prevent thrombosis with high level of heparin and to control the good efficiency with a point of care test. Investigators want to test if two different devices, Hemochron and Istat, are giving similar results.

Read the detailed description

The management of the extracorporeal circulation (ECC) for cardiac surgery requires massive anticoagulation of the circuit by heparinization at 300 IU / kg of unfractionated heparin (HNF). To ensure an adequate level of safety, it is necessary to monitor the effectiveness of this dose of NHF. Several point of care monitors measuring activated coagulation time (ACT) are available on the market. Among these are the Hemochron (currently used routinely in the institution) and the IStat. These two monitors have been compared in adult cardiac surgery without deep hypothermia, but there is no comparative study in pediatric cardiac surgery.

The result of the ACT being dependent, in addition to heparinization, the platelet count, the fibrinogen level and the body temperature, it is therefore necessary to test the approval and the interchangeability between the monitors in different clinical situations .

The objective of this study is to reproduce the results published in adults and to compare these two monitors in pediatrics.

What is being measured

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

  1. Agreement of ACT measurement with Istat and Hemochron

    Investigators will use linear regression correlation, ROC curves analysis

    Istat and Hemochron will be measured at 5 time points :

    • induction,
    • 2 minutes after heparin loading,
    • 10 minutes after the stat of cardiopulmonary bypass or after heparin,
    • 30 minutes after the start of cardiopulmonary bypass or after heparin,
    • 2 minutes after protamin

    Measured: Maximum 6 hours (time of surgery)

  2. Interchangeability of ACT measurement with Istat and Hemochron

    Investigators will use linear regression correlation, ROC curves analysis

    Istat and Hemochron will be measured at 5 time points :

    • induction,
    • 2 minutes after heparin loading,
    • 10 minutes after the stat of cardiopulmonary bypass or after heparin,
    • 30 minutes after the start of cardiopulmonary bypass or after heparin,
    • 2 minutes after protamin

    Measured: Maximum 6 hours (time of surgery)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Event, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 8 Jun 2021. 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 France. 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?

Agreement of ACT measurement with Istat and Hemochron (time frame: Maximum 6 hours (time of surgery)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 8 Jun 2021.
