Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this interventional study is to test a hemostasis screening protocol and cardiac peri-procedural and post-operative hemostasis pathway to improving bleeding complications and improve patient survival for children with Alagille syndrome and complex cardiac conditions. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Are children with Alagille syndrome with cardiac anomalies more likely to have acquired von Willebrand syndrome (a condition that causes increased bleeding) - Does implementation of a novel screening protocol to detect pre-operative bleeding conditions decrease intra-operative and/or post-operative bleeding complications and mortality risk? - Does implementation of a novel screening protocol to detect and treat bleeding conditions cause thrombotic complications? Participants will undergo additional hematology and bleeding disorder screening prior to cardiac surgery. They will additionally undergo a detailed family screening for a history of bleeding by a genetic counselor. Researchers will compare these findings with children who have similar complex cardiac conditions requiring surgery, but who do not have Alagille syndrome to see if bleeding conditions and complications are more or less common in children with Alagille syndrome.


Clinical Trial Description

This study aims to develop and implement a pre-operative screening protocol prior to major procedures or surgeries for children with Alagille syndrome, including cardiac catheterization and cardiothoracic surgery (pulmonary artery reconstruction). Secondary Objectives 1. Develop and implement an intra-operative protocol for children with Alagille syndrome and acquired von willebrand syndrome. 2. Compare cardiac intra- and up to 48 hour post-operative bleeding complications, post-operative thrombotic complications within 30 days of surgery, and mortality for (a) children with Alagille syndrome with and without acquired von willebrand syndrome, and (b) children without Alagille syndrome. This is a single-site study with the goal to enroll 40 patients over the course of the study period. All patients that are referred for Pulmonary Artery Reconstruction will be screened for eligibility. All patients will undergo standard of care pre-operative hematologic screening to evaluate for bleeding disorders (specifically platelet aggregation disorders and acquired von Willebrand Factor deficiency). The study includes a pre-screening period of up to 4 weeks followed by a 12-months follow-up period as part of the standard of care following pulmonary artery reconstruction surgery for children with Alagille syndrome and a research related protocol for children without Alagille syndrome. Patients would have blood drawn one time at least 2 weeks in advance of their cardiothoracic surgery. This is the screening protocol to understand if they have a bleeding disorder that would change their management in the operating room and after their surgery. For patients that are found to have a bleeding disorder requiring treatment, they would need post-operatively a blood test daily for up to 7 days total and another blood test weekly for 2 weeks and then once prior to discharge. ;
