About this study

Official title: Aortocoronary Bypasses in High-Risk Patients (EuroSCORE 6+) With or Without Use of the Cardio-Pulmonary Bypass.

Previous studies comparing on-pump and off-pump operating strategy did only partially demonstrate benefits of the off-pump myocardial revascularisation.In primary end-points (MI, death, renal failure, and so on) there was no significant difference, but in secondary end-points we observed benefits resulting for patients. We would like to show the benefit of the method without extracorporeal circulation in patients with higher and hight operation risk, coming from EuroSCORE classification system (6 points and more).

What is being measured

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

  1. death, heart stroke, brain stroke, renal failure, early reoperation

    Measured: 30 days

  2. heart stroke, brain stroke, death, renal failure, early reoperation

    Measured: 30 days and 365 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. length of in-hospital stay, blood losses, number of blood-transfusion, new appeared atrial fibrillation, 1-year mortality, quality of life-angina classified by CCS in 1-year follow up, length of mechanical ventilation

    Measured: 30 days and 365 days

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ischemic Heart Disease and Post-Operative Complications, run by Charles University, Czech Republic at 2 sites in Czechia.

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 5 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Feb 2008. 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 Czechia. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

death, heart stroke, brain stroke, renal failure, early reoperation (time frame: 30 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 4 Feb 2008.
