Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

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

Study population: Adult patients treated by the cardiac surgery department of Nantes University Hospital who undergo a cardiovascular procedure with cardiopulmonary bypass considered to be at high risk for bleeding; (prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass >2 hours, aortic arch surgery, history of redo cardiac surgery, combined surgery, multiple portocoronary bypasses). Procedures for which a perioperative blood recovery device (SAME or Cell-Saver) has been used, with the choice of the blood recovery technique at the discretion of the medical team.

Who may be able to join

  • Scheduled cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass with a predicted duration of more than 2 hours, or surgery of the aortic arch, redo surgery, multiple aorto-coronary bypasses (>2), or combined surgery (valvular and coronary).

Who cannot join

  • Pre-existing constitutional or acquired bleeding disorder (hemophilia A or B, von Willebrand disease, myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative syndrome)

About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Performance and Effectiveness of Two Transfusion-Saving Devices: Cell-Saver for Red Blood Cell Reinfusion and SAME for Red Blood Cell and Platelet Reinfusion

An observational study comparing two systems of perioperative blood recovery in cardiac surgery, one system allowing red blood cell reinfusion and one system allowing red blood cell and platelet reinfusion. The objective is to evaluate whether platelet recovery provides better quality of hemostasis during and after surgery, improving transfusion savings, and whether it reduces postoperative complications and the length of stay in the intensive care unit and in the hospital.

Read the detailed description

° Primary outcome of the study : The primary outcome of the study is to compare the evolution of perioperative platelet count based on the type of blood recovery used, either SAME or Cell-Saver.

The main outcome measure is the difference between the preoperative and immediate postoperative platelet counts (delta platelet) for each patient between the SAME and Cell-Saver groups.

° Secondary outcomes of the study:

The secondary outcomes are to evaluate, from the preoperative period until day 28 postoperatively:

  • The post-operative platelet count between days 1 and 5
  • The frequency of perioperative and postoperative transfusions, including the number and type of blood products transfused
  • The use of derivative medications (fibrinogen, prothrombin complex concentrates)
  • The volume of postoperative bleeding
  • The frequency of postoperative events (infectious, renal, thromboembolic, hemorrhagic)
  • The length of stay in the intensive care unit and in the hospital
  • The frequency of treatment for postoperative anemia with iron or erythropoiesis-stimulating agents.

What participants receive

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

  • CELL-SaverDevice

    The Cell-saver device allows for red blood cell reinfusion during cardiac surgery.

  • SAMEDevice

    The SAME device allows for red blood cell and platelet reinfusion during cardiac surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference between the preoperative and immediate postoperative platelet counts (delta of platelet) for each patient

    The main outcome measure is the difference between the preoperative and immediate postoperative platelet counts (delta platelet) for each patient in the Cell-saver group or in the SAME group.

    Measured: up to 1 week

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Postoperative platelet

    Postoperative platelet count between day 1 and day 5

    Measured: 5 days

  2. Perioperative and postoperative transfusions

    Frequency of perioperative and postoperative transfusions, number and type of blood products transfused from surgery (day 1) to 28 days after surgery

    Measured: 28 days

  3. Derivative medications

    Use of derivative medications (fibrinogen, prothrombin complex concentrates) from surgery (day 1) to 28 days after surgery

    Measured: 28 days

  4. Postoperative bleeding

    Volume of postoperative bleeding from surgery (day 1) to 28 days after surgery

    Measured: 28 days

  5. Postoperative events

    Frequency of postoperative events (infectious, renal, thromboembolic, hemorrhagic) from surgery (day 1) to 28 days after surgery

    Measured: 28 days

  6. Durations of stays

    Duration of stays in the intensive care unit and in the hospital from surgery (day 1) to 28 days after surgery

    Measured: 28 days

  7. Postoperative anemia

    Frequency of treatment for postoperative anemia with iron or erythropoiesis-stimulating agents from surgery (day 1) to 28 days after surgery

    Measured: 28 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Surgery Under Extra Corporeal Circulation and Cardiac Surgery Requiring Cardiopulmonary Bypass, run by Nantes University Hospital 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 1 inclusion and 8 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 9 Jan 2025. 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?

Difference between the preoperative and immediate postoperative platelet counts (delta of platelet) for each patient (time frame: up to 1 week). 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 9 Jan 2025.
