Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to to evaluate the rate of new onset postoperative atrial fibrillation in subjects receiving the amniotic membrane patch placed on the epicardial surface as compared to subjects who did not undergo epicardium intervention.


Clinical Trial Description

New onset postoperative atrial fibrillation (NOPAF) presents in approximately 27 to 40% of patients who have recently undergone coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) or other open heart surgeries. NOPAF can put patients at clinical risk for stroke and other arrhythmias. NOPAF commonly prolongs hospitalization leading to increased use of hospital resources, higher cost and decreased patient satisfaction. A number of risk factors have been associated with the development of NOPAF including age, prior history of atrial fibrillation, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), chronic renal failure, diabetes and obesity. It is not entirely clear what causes NOPAF; the prevailing theory is that it is a multi-factorial process, possibly due in part to inflammation from the surgery. The usual treatments for NOPAF are associated with various side effects and risks. We propose to test the hypothesis that an amniotic membrane patch, with minimal known risk and side effects, placed on the heart's surface during surgery will reduce the incidence of NOPAF.

This phase I/II prospective, single-center, randomized controlled clinical trial is being undertaken to assess the safety of the amniotic membrane patch when used in the setting of CABG surgery and whether utilization of the amniotic membrane patch to aid repair of the normal epicardium following isolated, first-time CABG procedures might result in a lower rate of NOPAF compared to subjects who did not undergo treatment with the amniotic membrane patch. ;
