About this study

Official title: Effect Of Postoperative Pump Blood Administration On Erythrocyte Suspension Requirement And Coagulation Parameters İn Cardiopulmonary Bypass Surgery

In our study, the impact of administering autologous blood remaining in the cardiopulmonary bypass system during coronary artery bypass surgeries will be evaluated using the ROTEM device to assess its effect on coagulation parameters. Additionally, the influence of this autologous blood on the need for erythrocyte suspension will be examined, providing insight into its potential role in reducing transfusion requirements in the postoperative period.

Material and Method: The study included 60 patients scheduled for coronary artery bypass graft surgery who met the inclusion criteria. These patients were randomly assigned into two groups: 30 in the study group and 30 in the control group. Following the surgery, all patients were transferred to the intensive care unit under continuous monitoring. In the control group, ROTEM analysis was performed during the first postoperative hour. For the study group, blood from the oxygenator and tubing set was collected into a 1000 cc Ringer lactate bag, originally used as the pump's priming solution, under sterile conditions using a roller pump. The hematocrit levels and the total volume of the collected blood were measured and recorded in milliliters. The study group patients received a 30-minute infusion of this blood at the 1st postoperative hour. ROTEM was performed on the study group after the infusion had concluded.

Postoperative monitoring was carried out at four specific time points: the 4th hour, 24th hour, 48th hour, and upon discharge from the intensive care unit. During this period, the patients' drainage volumes, hemoglobin, hematocrit, leukocyte, and platelet counts were documented. In addition, fluid balance, BUN, and creatinine levels were tracked, along with mechanical ventilator duration and associated parameters. The study concluded with postoperative follow-up, and all collected data were analyzed statistically to assess outcomes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative need for red blood cell (RBC) transfusion measured by number of RBC units administered

    The primary outcome is the requirement for postoperative red blood cell transfusion. The measurement tool is the number of RBC units transfused, recorded from hospital transfusion records from the end of surgery until the 7th postoperative day.

    Measured: Until the end of the 7th postoperative day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Incidence of TRALI, TACO, AKI, re-operation, and total drainage amount measured using standard clinical and laboratory criteria

    TRALI: Diagnosed according to the 2019 International Society of Blood Transfusion criteria.

    TACO: Assessed by clinical signs, chest X-ray, and hemodynamic parameters.

    AKI: Evaluated using KDIGO criteria based on serum creatinine and urine output.

    Re-operation: Number of patients requiring surgical re-intervention.

    Drainage amounts: Measured in milliliters from postoperative drains.

    Measured: Until the end of the 7th postoperative day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing oxygenator and tubing set blood transfusion in people with Cardio-pulmonary Bypass, run by Ataturk 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 2 inclusion and 5 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 17 Nov 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 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 need for red blood cell (RBC) transfusion measured by number of RBC units administered (time frame: Until the end of the 7th 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 NCT06824753, which also lists 2 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 17 Nov 2025.
