About this study

Official title: Effect of Remote Ischemic Conditioning on Platelet Dysfunction Following Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of remote ischemic conditioning on platelet function during off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery.

Read the detailed description

Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) may affect platelet function. However, little is known about effect of RIC on platelet function during off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery. In this study investigators are going to perform RIC after anesthesia induction (remote ischemic pre-conditioning) and after completion of coronary anastomoses (remote ischemic post-conditioning), and compare platelet function parameters with control group.

Remote ischemic conditioning, Control
Keywords
remote ischemic conditioning, off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery

What participants receive

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

  • Remote ischemic conditioningProcedure or surgery

    In the RIC group, RIC is performed before and after coronary anastomoses by 5 minutes limb ischemia and reperfusion with pneumatic cuff up to 200 mmHg repeated by four times.

  • ControlProcedure or surgery

    In the control group, all the procedures will be same with RIC group, except for the fact that the three-way stopcock between the pneumatic cuff and the cuff inflator was opened and therefore the cuff pressure did not increase.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of Multiplate ADPtest AUC

    Area under the aggregation curve (AUC) after platelet stimulation with adenosine diphosphate

    Measured: Baseline, at the end of surgery, postoperative day 1

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Change of Multiplate ASPItest AUC

    Area under the aggregation curve (AUC) after platelet stimulation with arachidonic acid

    Measured: Baseline, at the end of surgery, postoperative day 1

  2. Change of Multiplate COLtest AUC

    Area under the aggregation curve (AUC) after platelet stimulation with collagen

    Measured: Baseline, at the end of surgery, postoperative day 1

  3. Change of Rotational thromboelastometry EXTEM parameter

    Screening test for the extrinsic haemostasis system

    Measured: Baseline, at the end of surgery, postoperative day 1

  4. Change of Rotational thromboelastometry FIBTEM parameter

    Represents an EXTEM based assay for the fibrin part of the clot

    Measured: Baseline, at the end of surgery, postoperative day 1

  5. Rotational thromboelastometry INTEM parameter

    Intrinsically activated rotational thrombelastometry

    Measured: Baseline, at the end of surgery, postoperative day 1

  6. Change of Rotational thromboelastometry HEPTEM parameter

    Represents an INTEM assay performed in the presence of heparinase

    Measured: Baseline, at the end of surgery, postoperative day 1

  7. Amount of peri-operative bleeding and transfusion

    Amount of peri-operative bleeding and transfusion

    Measured: At the end of surgery, postoperative day 1,2,3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Remote ischemic conditioning in people with Platelet Function, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 17 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 4 Apr 2019. 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 South Korea. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Change of Multiplate ADPtest AUC (time frame: Baseline, at the end of surgery, postoperative day 1). 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 Apr 2019.
