Trial Review

Please note the ANZCTR will be unattended from Friday 20 December 2024 for the holidays. The Registry will re-open on Tuesday 7 January 2025. Submissions and updates will not be processed during that time.

Registering a new trial?

To achieve prospective registration, we recommend submitting your trial for registration at the same time as ethics submission.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Public title
Cerebral Oximetry in Cardiac Surgery
Scientific title
Using Cerebral oximetry (INVOS 5100) during cardiopulmonary bypass in patients requiring elective isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgery to improve neuropsychological outcomes or composite clincal outcomes (composite endpoint based on the presence of 30-day mortality or a major morbidity (permanent stroke, renal dysfunction or failure, cardiac surgery reoperation, prolonged ventilation, deep sternal wound infection)).

Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
4 groups, with blinded or unblinded operator with respect to cerebral oximetry monitor and unblinded operator with respect to rewarming rate. Group 1: Standard rewarming with blinded near infrared spectroscopy (control)
Group 2: Standard rewarming with interventional near infrared spectroscopy
Group 3: Slow rewarming with blinded near infrared spectroscopy
Group 4: Slow rewarming with interventional near infrared spectroscopy

Cerebral monitoring occurs from time immediately prior to intubation to the time the patient is extubated (12-15 hr).

Standard rewarming is when the patient is rewarmed at a maximum rate of 1 degree per minute, slow rewarming is when the patient is rewwarmed at a maximum rate 0.5C per minute. INVOS Cerebral Oximeter interventions include increasing flow, gas sweep rates, cardiac output, oxygen saturation and hematocrit.

Blinded near infrared spectroscopy is when the perfusionist is unaware of what the spectrocopy results are during the oepration (equivalent to current practice), interventional is when the perfusionist uses the interventiones noted above to manage the perfusion based upon the near infra red spctrcopy results.

The device is called teh INVOS cerebral oximeter, details are avaialble on the follwoing website http://www.somanetics.com/invos.htm. INVOS means "In-Vivo Optical Spectroscopy".

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 3084 0
Neuropsychological outcome measures (including Employment Status; Edinburgh Handedness; Orientation;California Verbal Learning Test-II; Purdue Pegboard ; Verbal Fluency (COWAT); Trails Making Test A & B; Symbol Digit; Boston Naming Test short form: or Cognitive Drug Research test battery)
Timepoint [1] 3084 0
Reported prior to discharge and 6,12 and 24 month postoperatively. For patients who do not complete neuropsychological assessments, the combined clinical endpoint will serve as primary outcome (a composite endpoint based on the presence of 30-day mortality or a major morbidity (permanent stroke, renal dysfunction or failure, cardiac surgery reoperation, prolonged ventilation, deep sternal wound infection) determined at discharge.
Secondary outcome [1] 5501 0
Secondary outcomes 1: combined clinical endpoint, a composite endpoint based on the presence of 30-day mortality or a major morbidity (permanent stroke, renal dysfunction or failure, cardiac surgery reoperation, prolonged ventilation, deep sternal wound infection) occurring during the period of hospitalisation.
Timepoint [1] 5501 0
30 day or until end of hospitalisation
Secondary outcome [2] 5502 0
In addition Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire, Medical Outcome Short Form 36 Health Survey, Delerium Symptom Interview, Depression Anxiety Sress Scale, Mood Anxiety Sress-Questionairre, Mini International Neuropsychiatirc Interview and a clinical assessment are performed at discharge, 6, 12 and 24 months.

A clinical assessment is the routine morbidity and health examination that is performed on all patients prior to discharge.
Timepoint [2] 5502 0
Prior to discharge.

Study design
Purpose of the study
Prevention
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
1. sealed opaque envelope
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
2. Simple randomisation by using a randomization table created by a computer software (i.e., computerised sequence generation).
Masking / blinding
Blinded (masking used)
Who is / are masked / blinded?



Intervention assignment
Parallel
Other design features
Surgeon who performs the operation is blinded to the oximetry; data collector (medical officer) is blinded to the both the oximetry and teh rewarming strategy. The perfusionist is unblinded to the randomisation, as is the trial co-ordinator.
