About this study

In this randomized clinical trial, patients with undergoing open heart valve surgery will be enrolled into the study. Participants will be divided into two groups based on the priming solution type. The first group will receive hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 additive to ringer lactate (RL) and the second group will be given only RL as priming solution. All patients will be observed closely during postoperative days. Through follow up, bleeding/coagulopathy, renal function, hepatic function, and cerebral oxygenation will be recorded in both groups.

Read the detailed description

Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) pump is a device for circulating blood in the body while the heart is undergone surgery. For providing circulating volume in the body we need to add about 1.5 to 2 lit fluids as priming solution in the CPB pump. Some fluids mainly included crystalloids, colloids, starch, and gelatin in an only fluid or in a combined formula. During CPB time, the blood dilution is caused by adding prime solution into the circulating volume, and consequently it decreases blood viscosity. Moreover, in addition to a decrease in hematocrit level, coagulation factors and plasma proteins can dramatically decreased. These processes may lead to bleeding events and tissue hypoperfusion and organ damages. To decrease complications, some modalities such as adding colloids to crystalloids have been implemented. On the other hand, any regimen for priming solution has its shortcomings need to be considered based on patient condition and surgical issue.

In this double blinded randomized clinical trial study, we aimed to compare the the effects of six percent HES 130/0.4 and RL as priming solutions on coagulation factors, renal function, hepatic function, and cerebral oxygenation in patients undergoing open heart valve surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Six percent hydroxy ethyl starch 130/0.4 and Ringer lactate in people with Heart Valve Diseases, run by Rajaie Cardiovascular Medical and Research Center at 1 site in Iran.

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 1 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 Feb 2022. 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 Iran. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Number of participants required blood transfusion (time frame: Up to discharge, an average of 8 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 NCT05223361, 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 Feb 2022.
