Hydrocortisone Per-treatment Decrease Side Effects of Protamine Sulfate

June 16, 2020 updated by: Mustafa Alrabayah, University of Jordan

The Role of Hydrocortisone Per-treatment in Decreasing Side Effects of Protamine Sulfate During Cardiac Surgeries, a Randomized Control Trial.

This study aims to compare the hemodynamic parameters within and between patients who received Protamine Sulfate (PS) with Hydrocortisone (HC) vs. Protamine Sulfate alone during cardiac surgeries.

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

the investigators hypothesized that patients received PS along with HC would have different results in intraoperative hemodynamic changes of the blood pressure - both Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP), Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) and Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) reading. Differences would also be expected for Heart rate (HR), Airway pressure and the usage of Adrenaline, Noradrenaline and Dobutamine.

Patients who had cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass were screened and enrolled from 4/7/2019 to 30/4/2020. Inclusion criteria for patients were normal preoperative hemoglobin level, normal preoperative platelet count, no known defect of the coagulation system, and patients with unimpaired renal function (creatinine clearance < 30 ml/kg/min). The patients were excluded if they were younger than 18 years, patients with known defect of the coagulation system, renal impairment, previous vasectomy, allergy to fish or unable to give consent form.

The study carried out as a parallel-group, randomized, controlled trial with a 1:1 allocation ratio. Patients were screened for eligibility in the wards before being invited to participate in the research. After the invitation, the study was explained to patients. Those who agreed to participate in the study were asked to sign the consent form.

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 and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Blood pressure
Time Frame: changes of baseline blood pressure taken preoperatively and readings taken during 30 minutes after Protamine Sulfate was given
both systolic, diastolic and mean arterial pressure
changes of baseline blood pressure taken preoperatively and readings taken during 30 minutes after Protamine Sulfate was given

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Hemodynamic parameters
Time Frame: changes of baseline readings taken preoperatively and readings taken during 30 minutes after Protamine Sulfate was given
Heart rate (Beat Per Minute),
changes of baseline readings taken preoperatively and readings taken during 30 minutes after Protamine Sulfate was given
Hemodynamic parameters
Time Frame: changes of baseline readings taken preoperatively and readings taken during 30 minutes after Protamine Sulfate was given
Airway pressure (cm H2O)
changes of baseline readings taken preoperatively and readings taken during 30 minutes after Protamine Sulfate was given
Hemodynamic parameters
Time Frame: the change in drugs doses required to maintain mean arterial pressure more than 65 mmHg during the first 30 minutes following Protamine dose
