NCT03607786

Brief Summary

This study is designed as a multicenter, randomized, assessor- blinded clinical trial.The primary aim of this trial is to assess whether retrograde inferior venal caval perfusion combined selective antegrade cerebral perfusion(ACP)under mild hypothermia, compared with moderate hypothermia combined with selective ACP alone, improves the outcome for the patients undergoing total aortic arch replacement.

Study Arms (2)

RIVP group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

After total cardiopulmonary bypass was initiated, the patient is cooled slowly to induce moderate hypothermia(28-30℃). The combination of selective antegrade cerebral perfusion and retrograde inferior vena caval perfusion is performed. The antegrade perfusion flow rate was is maintained at 6-12 mL/min/kg.Pump pressure of retrograde perfusion was is maintained at 20-30 mmHg, and blood flow was is maintained at 8-12 mL/min/kg.

Procedure: Retrograde Inferior Vena Caval Perfusion

ACP group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

After total cardiopulmonary bypass was initiated, the patient is cooled slowly to induce moderate hypothermia(26-28℃). Only select antegrade cerebral perfusion is performed by maintaining the flow rate at 6-12 mL/min/kg.

Procedure: Select antegrade cerebral perfusion

Interventions

Retrograde Inferior Vena Caval Perfusion is achieved by tethering the inferior vena cava with a band around the cannula and by clamping the distal end of the inferior vena cava drainage tube, which allowed a pump to drive oxygenated blood into the inferior vena cava. Pump pressure is maintained at 20-30 mmHg, and blood flow is maintained at 8-12 mL/min/kg. The aim of RIVP is to maintain the lower body perfusion during circulation arrest, and reduce the ischemia-associated vital organ injury.

Also known as: Select antegrade cerebral perfusion
RIVP group

Antegrade cerebral perfusion is achieved using a 12 F cannula inserted into the brachiocephalic artery or right axillary artery. The antegrade perfusion flow rate is maintained at 6-12 mL/min/kg

ACP group
