About this study

Official title: A Prospective Cohort Study of Neurologic Evaluation in Patients Recevied Transapical Beating-heart Septal Myectomy or General Cardiac Surgery

The goal of this prospective cohort study is to evaluate the neurologic changes in patients that received transapical beating-heart septal myectomy. The main questions are: whether this novel operation way would cause neurologic impairment; whether this novel operation way have similar neurologic lesions, compared to other cardiac surgery ways. Participants will undergo detailed neurologic and cognitive assessment at baseline, after procedure, and at 30 days. Researchers will compare the clinically relevant manifestations and brain lesions measured by cognitive evaluation forms of the nervous system (i.e. Montreal cognitive assessment) and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) to assess the safety of transapical beating-heart septal myectomy on nervous system.

Read the detailed description

Nervous system complication is one of the common complications caused by cardiac surgery, including ischemic stroke, encephalopathy, neurocognitive dysfunction, which can increase the mortality of patients, hospitalization cost and lead to long-term quality of life impairment. At present, embolism is considered to be the main mechanism of postoperative nervous system complication. Imaging studies have confirmed that 30% to 50% of perioperative strokes are caused by brain embolism larger than 200 μm. For example, a study using diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) found that 66% of patients who received aortic valve replacement had a new cerebral infarction with a brain injury volume of about 126 mm3. Recently, our team have invented a novel surgical method called transapical beating-heart septal myectomy (TA-BSM) to cure hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). To date, this novel therapy displayed ideal effectiveness on these patients, however, whether this novel operation way would cause neurologic impairment is unclear. In this study, researchers will compare TA-BSM with cardiac surgery involving left heart operation, and analyze the clinically relevant manifestations and brain lesions measured by cognitive evaluation forms of the nervous system (i.e., Montreal cognitive assessment) and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) in these patients received above therapies. This study is to assess the safety of TA-BSM on nervous system and contributes the further improvement of this novel cardiac surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of diffusion-weighted MRI lesions

    the number (n) of new brain lesions measured by diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) in 3 months

    Measured: 3 months

  2. The volume of new brain lesions measured by diffusion-weighted MRI

    the volume (mL) of new brain lesions measured by diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) in 3 months

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. neurologic injury

    The number of participants (n) with neurological events and cognitive dysfunction following transapical beating-heart septal myectomy

    Measured: 7 days and 3 months

  2. all-cause and cardiovascular mortality

    all-cause and cardiovascular mortality following transapical beating-heart septal myectomy

    Measured: 7 days and 3 months

  3. montreal cognitive assessment

    montreal cognitive assessment evaluating mild cognitive impairment, ranging from 0 to 30, in which higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Measured: 7 days and 3 months

  4. national Institute of Health stroke scale

    national Institute of Health stroke scale evaluating mild cognitive impairment, ranging from 0 to 42, in which higher scores mean a worse outcome.

    Measured: 7 days and 3 months

  5. modified rankin scale

    modified rankin scale evaluating mild cognitive impairment, ranging from 0 to 6, in which higher scores mean a worse outcome.

    Measured: 7 days and 3 months

  6. symbol digit modalities test

    symbol digit modalities test evaluating mild cognitive impairmentt, ranging from 0 to 90, in which higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Measured: 7 days and 3 months

  7. trail-making-test

    trail-making-test evaluating mild cognitive impairment, in which the longer time mean a worse outcome.

    Measured: 7 days and 3 months
