Sequestration of Platelets Prior to Bypass Reduces Bleeding After Cardiac Surgery
Post-operative Administration of Platelet Rich Plasma Sequestered Prior to Cardiopulmonary Bypass Reduces the Coagulopathy Associated With Complex Cardiac Surgery

Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Hypothesis:
Patients undergoing repeat median sternotomy or requiring prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) often develop a coagulopathy at the end of surgery. We propose sequestering plasma and platelets from these patients prior to CPB and thus prior to the dilution and platelet damage that occurs with CPB. We hypothesise that if these plasma and platelets are stored properly during CPB, and administered at the end of the operation, they will reduce any coagulopathy and the associated bleeding.
Study population:
Patients undergoing repeat median sternotomy, mitral valve repair, double valve operations, aortic surgery, or combined valve and coronary artery surgery.
Exclusion criteria will include those with anaemia, thrombocytopenia, unstable angina, anti-platelet therapy within the previous seven days, known or symptomatic cerebrovascular disease, known disorders of haemostasis, aprotinin sensitivity and pregnancy.
Intervention:
Patients will be randomised by a closed envelope technique to receive platelet/plasma sequestration or not. Patients randomised to undergo sequestration will have 14 mL/Kg blood taken. The blood will be separated into red cells and platelets/plasma. Anaemia would be prevented by returning the processed red blood cells to the patient. We will store platelets at 20-24°C/room temperature on a platelet rocker according to guidelines from the National Blood Service.
Assessment of coagulation:
Patients' coagulation status will be evaluated before and after surgery. Four methods will be employed to comprehensively assess the coagulation system: platelet counts and conventional clotting studies; heparin levels; thromboelastography; and platelet function analyser.
