  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: A prospective study was conducted in patients referred to the Cardiac Surgery De-partment from the National Thoracic Institute from Santiago, Chile, between October to December 2021, inclusively. The follow-up includes 2 groups: i) patients with preserved LVEF (pLVEF, n=7) and ii) patients with reduced LVEF (rLVEF, n=5).

Who may be able to join

  • age ≥18 years, chronic heart failure (WHO-functional class II, III) for at least 3 months before surgery. At the baseline visit, 7-10 days before surgery, the patients were classified by echocardiography as HF with pLVEF (LVEF >40%) or HF with rLVEF (LVEF ≤40%).

Who cannot join

  • Patients with history or evidence of AF, previous myocardial infarction, current use of amiodarone, severe congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association class III or IV), presence of prosthetic valves, congenital valvular disease, chronic rheumatic, neoplastic diseases, liver insufficiency, severe chronic kidney disease (serum creatinine >2.5 mg/dl), recent infections ( 2 weeks) and emergency surgery or repair of cyanotic heart disease.
  • In addition, patients receiving nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids, antioxidants, vitamins, or fish oil supplements, three months before surgery were also excluded.

About this study

Official title: Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction and Oxidative Stress Markers in Patients Subjected to Car-diac Surgery With Cardiopulmonary Bypass

The goal of this observational study is determine if reduced ventricular ejection fraction is a factor that determines a pro-oxidant imbalance in patients subjected to cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.

The main questions are:

  • 1. Preoperative reduced left ventricular function determines higher blood and atrial tissue oxidative stress in patients subjected to cardiopulmonary bypass
  • 2. Oxidative stress markers in atrial tissue of cardiac surgical patients with develop atrial fibrillation The main tasks participants will be asked to do is register the symptoms of arrhythmia and heart failure. Also, obtain a electrocardiographic register if any present palpitations or chest pain with clinical significance This study not present a comparison group.
Read the detailed description
  1. Atrial fibrillation detection: continuous ECG monitoring was performed 24 to 48 h after CBP. Whenever arrhythmia symptoms occurred, a 12-lead ECG was performed every 12 h for 5 days. The presence of ECG-documented atrial fibrillation for at least 1 min was considered as a postoperative atrial fibrillation event.
  2. Samples and Biopsies: All patients were subjected to the same surgical procedure, including the same induction and anesthesia protocol, and the execution by the same medical team. Surgical access was via a median sternotomy incision, and all anastomoses were sutured by hand. Protection of myocardial tissue was accomplished with crystalloid cold potassium cardioplegic solution. In cardiac surgery, at the time of pericardiocentesis, samples of right appendage (approximately 200mg) were obtained immediately before starting extracorporeal circulation. They were immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80°C. Blood samples were collected in chilled vacutainers containing 4 mM disodium EDTA and centrifuged at 3000 × g for 10 min. Plasma samples from each patient were stored at -80°C until performing the biochemical determinations.
  3. Pre-operative Echocardiographic images: All echocardiographic analyses were performed at the Echocardiography Unit of the National Thorax Institute using GE Vivid E9 equipment at the baseline visit (7 days before surgery). The strain analyses were performed using a semi-automated speckle tracking technique (EchoPAC, GE Medical Systems, Milwaukee, Wisconsin) using a model of the entire LV (the 3 apical views). Inadequately tracked segments were excluded. A 3D full-volume acquisition of the LV using a matrix array transducer with the highest possible volume rate was be attempted in all patients. LV volumes and LVEF were measured offline (3DLVQ, EchoPAC, GE Medical Systems, Milwaukee, Wisconsin), with an abnormal LVEF identified as <40 %.
  4. Biochemical parameters of oxidative stress. Determinations in plasma and atrial tissue samples (obtained during cardiac surgery, at the time of pericardiocentesis) and treated under the same experimental conditions.

What participants receive

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

  • Detection of peri-operative atrial fibrillationDiagnostic test

    Also called Detection of oxidative stress markers of protein and lipid peroxidation

    atrial tissue and plasma from patients with atrial fibrillation detection were analyzed for determine lipid and protein oxidation, and detect markers of myocardial injury.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative atrial fibrillation

    The presence of ECG-documented atrial fibrillation for at least 1 min was considered as a postoperative atrial fibrillation event.

    Measured: cardiac recording monitoring from surgery until the fifth postoperative day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Oxidative stress markers

    Tissue and plasma lipid peroxidation were measured as TBARS and 8-isoprostanes levels. Nitrotyrosine levels were detect in atrial tissue from show an oxidation of proteins

    Measured: Samples obtained at surgical time and on fourty eight hours from surgery

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Feb 2024. 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 Chile. 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 atrial fibrillation (time frame: cardiac recording monitoring from surgery until the fifth postoperative day). 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 NCT06256965, which also lists 8 linked publications.

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 13 Feb 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
