The Fusion Versus The Affinity Oxygenation Systems - A Prospective Randomized Trial In Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)

This study compares between the clinical, hematological, inflammatory and neurological outcome of patients undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) surgery in which different oxygenation systems will be used.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

In order to assess the efficacy and safety of fusion Oxygenation System in patients undergoing isolated CABG, a prospective one-to-one randomized trial comparing the fusion oxygenation to the currently used affinity oxygenation system will be conducted. Forty patients intending to undergo CABG will be divided into 2 groups according to the oxygenation system which will be used during surgery. Distribution into groups will be done randomly. Ten patients undergoing elective peripheral vascular surgical procedures under general anesthesia and 10 patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention will serve as control groups for the neurological outcomes. Clinical status, inflammatory and hematological response as well as Neurological outcome will be assessed.

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Fusion oxygenation system
Fusion oxygenation machine will be used during the operation.
The fusion oxygenation system is a novel design of the pump oxygenator used in cardiopulmonary bypass, integrating multiple new engineering concepts that have altered its performance profile.
Active Comparator: Affinity oxygenation system
Affinity oxygenation machine will be used during the operation.
The affinity oxygenation system is the classical pump oxygenator used in cardiopulmonary bypass surgeries
No Intervention: Peripheral vascular procedure
No oxygenation machine will be used in this group
No Intervention: percutaneous coronary intervention
No oxygenation machine will be used in this group

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
major adverse events
Time Frame: Participants will be followed for 30 days following the surgery
Number of major adverse events (including mortality) will be assessed
Participants will be followed for 30 days following the surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Systemic inflammatory response
Time Frame: Participants will be followed 3 days following the surgery.
Serum markers of inflammation will be measured at 4 time points: after induction of anesthesia, immediately after termination of cardiopulmonary bypass, 3 hours, and 3 days postoperatively. : heparinized arterial (intraoperatively) or venous (postoperatively) blood samples will be collected. Bio-assay of endothelial permeability will be also done. Within each group, the change overtime will be compared to baseline. Participants' number with abnormal laboratory values in each study group will be assessed and compared with the other groups.
Participants will be followed 3 days following the surgery.
Number of participants with abnormal laboratory values
Time Frame: Participants will be followed for 3 days following the surgery.
Hemoglobin and hematocrit, Platelet number and activation and Thrombin activation will be measured. Within each group, the change overtime will be compared to baseline. Participants' number with abnormal laboratory values in each study group will be assessed and compared with the other groups.
Participants will be followed for 3 days following the surgery.
Neurological outcomes-Functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
Time Frame: Changes in brain activity pattern will be assessed at baseline and 4 weeks postoperatively .
Changes in brain structure and patterns of neural activation in response to cognitive tasks will be assessed using structural and functional MRI and compared between the study groups.
Changes in brain activity pattern will be assessed at baseline and 4 weeks postoperatively .
Neurological outcomes-Transcranial Doppler (TCD)
Time Frame: Participants will be followed 3 days following the surgery.
Changes in brain activity pattern before and after the surgery will be assessed and compared between the study groups.
Participants will be followed 3 days following the surgery.
Neurological outcomes- electroencephalogram (EEG)
Time Frame: Participants will be followed 3 days following the surgery.
Changes in brain activity pattern before and after the surgery will be assessed and compared between the study groups.
Participants will be followed 3 days following the surgery.
