NCT03818126

Brief Summary

A group of 150 patients undergoing aortic valve replacement procedure will be randomized either into del Nido cardioprotection protocol (75 participants) or into the cold blood cardioplegia protocol (75 participants). The intraoperative and perioperative outcomes of using each solution will be presented and compared (see the endpoints).

Study Arms (2)

del Nido cardioplegia

EXPERIMENTAL
Drug: del Nido cardioplegia

cold blood cardioplegia

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Drug: cold blood cardioplegia

Interventions

The del Nido components are: Plasma-Lyte A (1000ml), Mannitol 20% (16.3ml), MgSO4 50% (4ml) , NaHCO3 8.4% (13ml) , KCl 2mEq/mL (13ml), Lidocaine 1% (13ml). This solution is mixed with autologous patient blood from the cardiopulmonary circuit in a 4:1 ratio (crystalloid:blood). The dosage is 20ml/kg. The target administration pressure is 100-200mmHg and the target administration flow is 200-300ml/min. The solution temperature is 4 degrees Celsius. Additional dose of the cardioplegia is given only if the cross-clamp time exceeds 90 minutes. Due to high volume given in a single delivery, 40 milligrams of furosemide are injected into cardiopulmonary circuit.

del Nido cardioplegia

The cold blood cardioplegia components are: Plasma-Lyte A (435ml), Mannitol 15% (20ml), NaHCO3 8.4% (20ml), KCl 2mEq/mL (25ml). The solution is mixed with autologous patient blood from the cardiopulmonary circuit in a 1:4 ratio (crystalloid:blood). The initial dose is 15ml/kg and a dose of 5ml/kg is added every 20-30 minutes or whenever cardiac activity is observed. The target administration pressure is 100-200mmHg and the target administration flow is 200-300ml/min. The solution temperature is 4 degrees Celsius.
