NCT05662501

Brief Summary

The "Pleiades" study is a non randomised, prospective, single center clinical trial that aims to evaluate the safety and the procedural feasibility of an innovative flow assist device (Pleioflow-RF) in adult patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Feasibility of the Pleioflow-RF device

    Feasibility: Initiation and maintenance the Mean of the maxima (maximum values) of pulsatile pressure ≥65mmHg during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)

    Through end of Device removal procedure

  • Safety of the Pleioflow-RF device

    Safety: Major Device-Related Adverse Events

    Through end of Device removal procedure

Secondary Outcomes (14)

  • Duration of Intensive Care Unit/Intensive Therapy Unit (ICU/ITU) stay

    30 days

  • Duration of Hospital Stay

    Up to 30 days postoperative

  • Acute Kidney injury (AKI)

    Up to 7 days postopoerative

  • Need for renal replacement therapy

    Up to 7 days

  • Intraoperative and Postoperative use of inotropes and vasopressors

    Up to 7 days postoperative

  • +9 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Subjects receiving the Pleioflow-RF device

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects receiving the Pleioflow-RF device in conjunction with IABP

Device: Pleioflow-RF

Interventions

Subjects who are going to undergo scheduled cardiac surgery and are prone to developing renal insufficiency, will receive the Pleioflow-RF device in conjunction with IABP during CPB. Subjects will be followed until 30-days post-intervention.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 85 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age ≥ 18 and ≤ 85, men and women
  • Elective coronary artery bypass grafting surgery and/or heart valve surgery with planned CPB.
  • Written informed consent provided
  • Haemoglobulin (Hb) ≥ 11 g/dl in women and ≥ 12 g/dl for men
  • Ejection fraction ≥ 30%
  • Score≥ 3 according to the Cleveland Clinic Foundation risk factor scale for AKI and / or Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) with preoperative glomerular filtration rate, estimated glomerular filtration rate, eGFR ≤50 ml / min / 1.7, 3 m2) as estimated by the equation of four Modified Diet and Renal Disease variables (MDRD type)

You may not qualify if:

  • emergency surgery
  • severe sepsis or rhabdomyolysis
  • severe preoperative renal insufficiency requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) or even once RRT
  • receiving within the last 10 days nephrotoxic medications, such as radiocontrast material (\> 100 ml), amphotericin B, aminoglycosides, NSAID, or trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole with at least moderate renal impairment (eGFR ≤45)
  • Any severe coagulopathy
  • Participation in another trial
  • Any surgical or medical condition which according to investigator's opinion could create problem in the assessment of safety and /or efficacy of the device
  • Severe comorbidity with life expectancy \< 6 months
  • History of poor compliance with previous treatment and incapability of giving informed consent
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women. Pregnancy, confirmed by a positive laboratory test for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, is considered from the time after conception until the end of the pregnancy.
  • Peripheral artery disease making insertion of IABP unfeasible
  • Preoperative intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP)
  • Preoperative other device in the same anatomical area (which could possibly create dysfunction of any of the other two devices)
