Dexamethasone, Olanzapine, Hemodynamics, and Ventilation in Cardiac Surgery

Dexamethasone, Olanzapine, Flow-targeted Versus Pressure-targeted Hemodynamic Management, and Low Tidal Volume Ventilation in Patients Undergoing On-pump Cardiac Surgery - a Multifactorial Design Randomized Trial


Sponsor

Rigshospitalet, Denmark

Enrollment

1,200 participants

Start Date

Nov 10, 2022

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Open heart surgery, including coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and/or aortic valve replacement (AVR) is associated with a significant risk of mortality. This study is a randomized clinical trial with the purpose of investigating four different interventions on the primary endpoint 'days alive and outside of hospital within 90 days'. The interventions are: * Dexamethasone vs. placebo administered after induction of anesthesia. * Olanzapine vs. placebo administered prior to anesthesia. * A blood-flow targeted vs. a blod-pressure targeted hemodynamic strategy while the patient is on cardio-pulmonary bypass (CPB) * Low-tidal volume ventilation vs. no ventilation of the lungs while the patient is on CPB


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study tests whether giving dexamethasone (a steroid) and olanzapine (typically used for nausea/vomiting) to patients having heart bypass surgery (CABG) or aortic valve replacement (AVR) improves recovery, reduces inflammation, and lowers the need for a breathing machine afterward. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 years or older - You are scheduled for planned (non-emergency) bypass surgery and/or aortic valve replacement **You may NOT be eligible if...** - Your surgery is urgent or emergency surgery - You are pregnant or breastfeeding - You have a known heart infection (endocarditis) - You have participated in a similar study before Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

This summary was AI-generated to explain the trial in plain language. It is not medical advice. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.
