Interchangeability of Arterial Coagulation and Venous Coagulation, in the Context of Cardiac Surgeries Under Cardiopulmonary Bypass, Using the DMDiv Hemochron Signature Elite (COAGAV)

June 23, 2026 updated by: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens

Prospective, Monocentric Study of the Interchangeability of Arterial Coagulation and Venous Coagulation, in the Context of Cardiac Surgeries Under Cardiopulmonary Bypass, Using the DMDiv Hemochron Signature Elite

Adequate coagulation measured using activated clotting (ACT) is important during vascular and cardiac surgeries. Unfractionated heparin is the most common anticoagulant used. For point of care testing, under supervision of biology department, the investigators use Hemochron Signature Elite®(HSE) (Werfen®-Barcelona Spain) to determine coagulation during cardiac surgery under Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB), with arterial or venous blood. The dosage of heparin varies according to this result, throughout the CPB. On the Connect Manager® software (Livanova®, Italy) which records all the data of a CPB, it is mandatory to inform, during an ACT, the sampling site in arterial or venous. The chemical compositions of arterial blood and venous blood are different (O2, Co2…) Even if the qualities of coagulation in vivo are identical, what happens when they are chemically analyzed using the medical device HSE ? Can we trust the results of this device to secure anticoagulation under CPB? Are the results affected by the sampling site? The objective of this study is to compare the reliability of hemostasis control , during cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass, for both venous and arterial blood. Effective and controllable anticoagulation is mandatory during cardiac surgeries under extracorporeal circulation. The monitoring of the effectiveness of heparin is carried out, in our center, using the Hemochron Signature Elite® (HSE) medical device, which measures the ACT (Activated Clotting Time). There is no comparative study between hemostasis of venous blood, versus arterial blood, with this point of care device.

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.

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

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
June 7, 2023

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
