This Study Will Compare the Effect of Starch Containing to Non-Starch Containing Intravenous Fluid on Blood Loss During Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery

December 2, 2008 updated by: St. Boniface Hospital

A Prospective Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Trial of the Effects of Colloid (HES 130/0.4) Versus Crystalloid (Ringer's Lactate) on Bleeding in Patients Undergoing Cardiopulmonary Bypass for Primary CABG, Single Valve Repair/Replacement, or Combined Single Valve/CABG Surgery"

The overall aim of this study is to determine if there is a bleeding risk associated with the use of starch-containing fluids during cardiac surgery. The specific purpose of this study will be to examine, in a prospective randomized double-blind placebo-controlled fashion, the effects of colloid (HES 130/0.4) vs. crystalloid (Ringer's Lactate) on bleeding in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass for cardiac surgery. The primary end point of this trial will be chest tube output at 24 hours. In addition, a range of secondary end points focusing on transfusion parameters, as well as other important end-organ outcomes, will be determined.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 85 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
To assess the effect of colloid (HES 130/0.4) administration on blood loss (as determined by chest tube drainage in the first 24 postoperative hours) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery utilizing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
Time Frame: first 24 postoperative hours
first 24 postoperative hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Transfusion requirements (RBC and other blood products) both at 24 hours and for duration of hospitalization
Time Frame: first 24 postoperative hours
first 24 postoperative hours
Re-exploration for bleeding
Time Frame: first 24 postoperative hours
