Normothermia Versus Hypothermia for Valvular Surgery Patients

October 30, 2013 updated by: Efremov Sergey, Meshalkin Research Institute of Pathology of Circulation

Normothermia Versus Hypothermia for Patients With Valvular Heart Disease Operated Under Cardiopulmonary Bypass.

Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) has been used successfully for cardiac surgery for over half a century. Hypothermia became a ubiquitous practice for adult patients undergoing CPB. To date, most studies have been conducted in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) patients with conflicting results. Current evidence does not support one temperature management strategy for all patients. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficiency and safety of normothermic versus hypothermic CPB in valvular surgery patients.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
No Intervention: Normothermic CPB
Standard management. Patients will be kept at normothermia throughout the procedure (>36oC).
Active Comparator: Hypothermic CPB
Patients will be cooled to 31-32oC (nasopharyngeal) after the beginning of CPB. Rewarming will begin 10-15 min before release of aortic cross-clamp. The gradient between heat-exchanger and nasopharynx during rewarming will be maintained at 3oC. The rewarming will be stopped at 36,5oC.
