Activated Recombinant Human Factor VII Following Cardiac Bypass Surgery for Paediatric Congenital Heart Disease

January 11, 2017 updated by: Novo Nordisk A/S

A Randomised, Double-blind, Parallel Group, Placebo-controlled Comparison of Recombi-nant Factor VIIa (rFVIIa/ NovoSeven®) With Standard Haemostatic Replacement Therapy, and Standard Haemostatic Replacement Ther-apy Following Cardiac Bypass Surgery for Paediatric Congenital Heart Disease

This trial is conducted in Oceania. The aim of this trial is to investigate the efficacy of activated recombinant human factor VII and standard treatment compared with standard haemostatic replacement therapy in cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery for paediatric congenital heart disease.
