About this study

Official title: The Relationship Between Neurocognitive Changes and Brain-Induced Neurotrophic Factor Levels in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

In patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery, the relationship between neurocognitive changes seen in the early period and brain-induced neurotrophic factor serum levels will be investigated.

Read the detailed description

Although postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POKD) is the most common neurological complication in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery, its pathophysiology is still not fully understood. However, the quality of this dysfunction has not been properly measured. In addition to clinical tests, biomarkers are often used to detect the presence of POKD. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the relationship between intraoperative and postoperative brain-derived neurotrophic factor serum levels and POKD in patients undergoing CABG surgery.

This prospective observational study is planned to include 30 adult patients aged 40-90 years. Patients with stroke history, neurodegenerative disease, seizure history, alcohol use, general anxiety, hearing deficit, unilateral carotid artery stenosis greater than 70%, and carotid artery bilateral stenosis greater than 50% will be excluded from the study.

This study aimed to determine perioperative changes in serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels in patients undergoing CABG surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cognitive Dysfunction, run by Bozok University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 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 3 Dec 2020. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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 cognitive dysfunction (time frame: 4 days). 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 NCT04250935, 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 3 Dec 2020.
