Trial summary

The investigators previously investigated the cardioprotective effect of an adenosine-lidocaine cardioplegia with moderate-potassium (K+, 10.0 mmol/L) in pediatric cardiac surgery, which was associated with better myocardial protective effects when compared with conventional high-potassium cardioplegia.

About this study

Official title: The Myocardial Protective Effects of a Moderate-potassium Blood Cardioplegia in Pediatric Cardiac Surgery:a Randomized Controlled Trial

The investigators previously investigated the cardioprotective effect of an adenosine-lidocaine cardioplegia with moderate-potassium (K+, 10.0 mmol/L) in pediatric cardiac surgery, which was associated with better myocardial protective effects when compared with conventional high-potassium cardioplegia. However, this cardioplegia could not be sucked back into the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuit because of excessive hemodilution and severe systemic hypotension induced by adenosine. Therefore, the investigators supposed that a moderate-potassium (K+, 10.0 mmol/L) blood cardioplegia without adenosine could also arrest the heart and have better myocardial protective effects compared with conventional hyperkalamic cold blood cardioplegia during cardiac operations without excessive hemodilution and systemic hypotension.

What participants receive

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

  • MP (moderate potassium) groupDrug

    Also called moderate potassium cardioplegia

    Hearts were arrested with cold blood cardioplegia with moderate potassium concentration (K+, 10mmol/L)during cardiac operation

  • HP (High potassium) groupDrug

    Also called High potassium cardioplegia

    Hearts are arrested with cold blood cardioplegia with high potassium concentration (K+, 20mmol/L)during cardiac operation.

What is being measured

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

  1. post-operative Serum cTnI concentration decreased significantly in 24hours

    myocardial injury could be sensitively reflected by post operative Serum cTnI concentration.

    Measured: 24h after myocardial reperfusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MP (moderate potassium) group and HP (High potassium) group in people with Congenital Heart Disease, run by Xijing Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 1 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 24 Nov 2011. 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 China. 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?

post-operative Serum cTnI concentration decreased significantly in 24hours (time frame: 24h after myocardial reperfusion). 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 24 Nov 2011.
