NCT01675817

Brief Summary

Recent work has shown that heparin rebound is common after cardiac surgery. The exact doze of protamine required to neutralize heparin at the end of CPB is unknown. Besides, the precise doze of protamine to treat heparin rebound is also unknown. It is also unknown if precise titration of protamine perioperatively in cardiac surgery can influence transfusion requirements after cardiac surgery.

Study Population

Patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery

You may qualify if:

  • Age \>18 years
  • Written consent
  • Scheduled for cardiac surgery under CPB (cardiopulmonary bypass)--(elective or emergency)
  • patients undergoing cardiac surgery where CPB time is anticipated to be short (isolated primary CABG (coronary artery bypass graft);isolated mitral-valve repair or aortic-valve replacement)
  • patients undergoing cardiac surgery where CPB time is anticipated to be longer (CABG + valve surgery combined; reoperations)

You may not qualify if:

  • Known coagulopathies
  • Liver dysfunction
  • Patients receiving unfractionated or low molecular weight heparin thrombin inhibitors, warfarin, antiplatelets within the past 7 days
  • Patients expected to undergo hypothermic CPB or circulatory arrest
