Trial summary

Cardiac surgery, especially when involving cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), has long been associated with a systemic inflammatory response that can lead to a range of complications, from mild symptoms to severe organ dysfunction, and mortality. Read more about this study

About this study

Cardiac surgery, especially when involving cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), has long been associated with a systemic inflammatory response that can lead to a range of complications, from mild symptoms to severe organ dysfunction, and mortality. The exact mechanisms behind this response remain a topic of extensive research, but it's clear that the body's reaction to the extracorporeal circulation, combined with surgical trauma, plays a significant role. Factors such as genomics, age, specific preoperative conditions, and the duration of operations have been associated with significant clinical responses.

A pivotal insight into this response comes from recent genome-wide transcriptional analyses. Perioperative ischemia and ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) have been suggested as hub-nodes in a hierarchic structure evaluating the response to cardiac surgery. This suggests that IRI isn't just a side effect of the surgery but might be a central player in the body's inflammatory response. The role of perioperative ischemia and its potential as a significant contributor to the postoperative inflammatory response cannot be understated. This study aims to delve deeper into the role of oxygen delivery and its implications in the systemic inflammatory response post- cardiac surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Cardiac Surgery, run by Azienda Ospedaliero, Universitaria Ospedali Riuniti at 2 sites in Italy.

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 4 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 28 May 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Italy. 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?

SIRS (time frame: 12 hours after surgery). 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 28 May 2025.
