About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study Involving the Changes in the Markers of Coagulation During Cardiopulmonary Bypass Surgery Utilizing Acute Normovolemic Hemodilution

This study will help enhance current understanding of the impact of Acute Normovolemic Hemodilution (ANH) administration on transfusion requirements post cardiac surgery, the effect of this procedure on coagulation, and platelet hemostasis, and the amount of chest tube drainage 24 hours post coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) surgery.

Read the detailed description

Acute Normovolemic Hemodilution (ANH) involves the removal of the patients own blood immediately at the induction of anesthesia and replacement of this blood intraoperatively with an equivalent volume of crystalloid or colloid solution in order to dissuade the loss of red blood cell mass, the mechanism of action is dilution of the blood, hematocrit reduction, and reduction of the anticoagulant components of the blood associated with bleeding during cardiopulmonary bypass graft surgery. The collected blood is isolated from the negative effects of the cardiopulmonary bypass machine.. The collected blood is then stored in anticoagulant treated blood bags in the cardiovascular operating room and re-infused into the patient in reverse order of collection at the commencement of surgery, leaving the most cell rich blood to be re-infused into the patient last. This study will evaluate the effect in patients with and without ANH utilization on; hemostatic markers, chest tube drainage 24 hours post CABG, and need for allergenic blood transfusion. Positive effects on the hemostatic markers of anticoagulation and platelets, reduced chest tube drainage at 24 hours post CABG, and reduced number of transfused red blood cells will indicate a positive correlation with ANH utilization during isolated on pump CABG surgery.

The benefits of ANH utilization in blood conservation will benefit patients by reducing their exposure to allogenic blood transfusion with its myriad side effects.

What is being measured

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

  1. Recovery in Platelet Function Post ANH

    Time it takes (hours) for platelet function to recover post-ANH to pre-procedure levels as measured by platelet aggregation.

    Measured: Baseline through 24 hours post ANH procedure

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Recovery in Mean Clot Firmness Post ANH

    Time it takes for Mean Clot Firmness (MCF) to return normal levels post-ANH as measured by ROTEM

    Measured: Baseline through 24 hours post ANH procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bleeding Reduction, run by Inova Health Care Services at 1 site in United States.

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 6 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 13 Jan 2020. 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 United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Jan 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Recovery in Platelet Function Post ANH (time frame: Baseline through 24 hours post ANH procedure). 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 13 Jan 2020.
