About this study

This study aims to investigate postoperative clinical, cognitive and neurophysiological assessment of patients after open heart surgery among sample of Egyptian patients.

Read the detailed description

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABAG) is one of the most common major surgical procedures, as more than 800,000 patients worldwide undergo myocardial revascularization procedures every year. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is an extracorporeal circulation procedure that assists the operation of cardiac and great vessels and is associated with perioperative morbidity and mortality.

Preoperative neurophysiological status as measured by electroencephalogram (EEG) had a specificity of 94.7% and a sensitivity of 76.9% for predicting 1-week postoperative cognitive status and with specificity of 78.3% and a sensitivity of 77.8% for predicting 3-months postoperative cognitive status.

Being tested
Digital Electroencephalography (DEEG)

What participants receive

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

  • Digital Electroencephalography (DEEG)Device

    The enrolled patients will undergo Digital Electroencephalography (DEEG) monitoring for at least two hours. A senior epileptologist will make a DEEG interpretation to detect DEEG abnormality. DEEG patterns will be categorized according to the American Clinical Neurophysiology Society's standardized critical care DEEG terminology(normal, slowing and asymmetry, sharp and wave, periodic discharges, ictal patterns burst suppression, and electrocerebral silence)

What is being measured

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

  1. Neurological complications

    Neurological complications, including nonconvulsive seizures after open heart surgery, will be recorded.

    Measured: 4 months postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Electroencephalography (DEEG) monitoring

    The enrolled patients will undergo Digital Electroencephalography (DEEG) monitoring for at least two hours. A senior epileptologist will interpret the DEEG to detect abnormalities. The DEEG patterns will be categorized according to the American Clinical Neurophysiology Society's standardized critical care DEEG terminology(normal, slowing and asymmetry, sharp and wave, periodic discharges, ictal patterns burst suppression, and electrocerebral silence).

    Measured: 24 hours postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Postoperative and Clinical, run by Ain Shams 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 3 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Nov 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Osama A Ebrahim, Master (00201016386372, osamaallam@med.asu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Neurological complications (time frame: 4 months postoperatively). 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 27 Nov 2024.
