Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

None listed.

Who cannot join

  • Cardiac surgery without CPB.
  • Hemodynamic instability in the preoperative time (defined as acute requirement for vasoactive support or mechanical device).
  • Adult congenital heart disease planned for corrective surgery.
  • Contraindication to transesophageal echocardiography (TEE).
  • Any surgery involves tricuspid valve annulus as it will compromise the accuracy of RV function assessment by TEE.

About this study

The primary aim of this study was to investigate the effect inhaled milrinone given before CPB on improving the right ventricular function measured by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) at time of CPB separation.

Read the detailed description

The investigator will include (70) patients planned for elective adult cardiac surgery (Coronary revascularization surgery, Mitral valve surgery, Aortic valve surgery or complex surgery (either two or more valves or valves and coronary revascularization surgery). All surgery should be with CPB. All patients will be diagnosed with preoperative PH. After separation of CPB the patients evaluated as regard the hemodynamics (MAP, HR), the inotropic score as additional intravenous milrinone in the case of low cardiac output or presence of post-CPB PH or RV failure with reduced contractility documented using TEE. Left ventricular EF, and right ventricular hemodynamics represented by RV function measured by (tricuspid annulus plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), fractional area change FAC), and right ventricular systolic pressure by doppler (RVSP) which represent the pulmonary artery pressure all data will be assessed by transesophageal ECHO after anesthesia, immediately before CPB and immediately after separation from CPB all these data will be recorded in the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Effect of inhaled milrinone on improvement of right ventricular function

    The right ventricle function will be assessed by Fractional area change ( Change in area between systole and diastole by echocardiograph ( intraoperative and postoperative)

    Measured: After 15 minutes of inhaled milrinone intraoperative and repeated after 12, 24 hours in intensive care unit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Milrinone and Normal saline in people with Anesthesia, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 0 inclusion and 5 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 20 Jul 2022. 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 Egypt. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Contact Samar Soliman (01006236494, dr_sm.md@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effect of inhaled milrinone on improvement of right ventricular function (time frame: After 15 minutes of inhaled milrinone intraoperative and repeated after 12, 24 hours in intensive care unit). 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 20 Jul 2022.
