Filter by:We designed a prospective double-blinded randomized trial in an attempt to detect a difference between tranexamic acid (TXA) and epsilon aminocaproic acid (EACA) in reducing transfusion in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
Due to various causes, such as brain impairment, environment changes, anxious,et al. patients, who undergo cardiopulmonary bypass, often suffer from poor quality of sleep. In chinese traditional medicine, acupuncture can improve the quality of sleep in patients with sleeping disorder. But it remains acupuncture could improve the quality of sleep in patients with heart operations.
The current proposal tests the central hypothesis that acetaminophen will attenuate the oxidative stress response associated with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)-induced hemolysis in children undergoing cardiac surgery.
The study is an randomized controlled trial (RCT) of 198 coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) patients, exploring whether ultrafiltration of residual blood in the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit reduces transfusion and bleeding.
Purpose: The effect of intravenous glutamate infusion on myocardial diastolic function and overall hemodynamics were studied in patients undergoing elective aortic valve replacement with severe aortic stenosis and associated left ventricular hypertrophy . Methods: 25 patients will be included in this double-blind randomized placebo-controlled study. Glutamate was administered intravenously immediately after aortic cross-clamp release. The patients receive either a low dose of 30mg kg-1 h-1 (LG-group) or high dose of 60 mg kg-1 h-1 (HG-group) or placebo (P-group) at a rate of 3.3ml kg-1h-1 for 2h. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is used to measure diastolic and systolic ventricular function before sternotomy (T0), and 2h (T2), 3h (T3) and 6h (T4) after release of cross clamp. Additionally routine hemodynamic parameters are measured intraoperatively.
This open label investigation is to determine whether cardiopulmonary bypass affects plasma gabapentin concentration after preoperative administration in the setting of cardiac bypass surgery. Following signed informed consent, 16 patients scheduled for cardiac bypass surgery will be given gabapentin (600mg, oral) 1 hour prior to surgery, 1 hour following extubation and then every 8 hours for a total of 4 doses. Plasma gabapentin levels will be measured prior to induction, prior to bypass, 10 min into the bypass procedure, 10 minutes before separation from bypass, 30 minutes following bypass and then before and 2 hours following each of the next 3 doses of gabapentin. Pain scores, sedation scores, side effects and morphine equivalents will be documented for one day following surgery.
Observe the effect of preliminary cyclosporine administration on different markers of cardiac ischaemia led by the aortic cross-clamp during coronary artery bypass surgery with Cardiopulmonary bypass.
Neurological complications from cardiac surgery are an important source of operative mortality, prolonged hospitalization, health care expenditure, and impaired quality of life. New strategies of care are needed to avoid rising complications for the growing number of aged patients undergoing cardiac surgery. This study will evaluate novel methods for reducing brain injury during surgery from inadequate brain blood flow using techniques that could be widely employed.
The purpose of this study is to characterize blood flow in the plastic tubing of a heart-lung bypass machine during heart surgery. Technical specifications provided by the manufacturer do not consider varying hemodynamic conditions such as temperature and hemoglobin levels which affect blood viscosity and ultimately blood flow to and from the patient during heart-lung bypass. The investigator wishes to perform a prospective study of the heart-lung bypass tubing in children that require heart-lung bypass during heart surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether acadesine is effective in reducing the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events in high-risk participants undergoing CABG surgery.
