Can Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Safely Discontinue Anticoagulant Therapy After Cardiac Surgery? (ATLAAC)
Left atrial appendage (LAA) closure has become a frequent addition to oral anticoagulation in patients with atrial fibrillation who undergo cardiac surgery. The procedure significantly reduces the risk of stroke and systemic embolism, which may render anticoagulation unnecessary or even harmful when considering the associated increased risk of bleeding. A …
TRanscatheter Aortic-Valve Implantation With or Without On-site Cardiac Surgery: the TRACS Trial
The primary efficacy objective is to determine whether a TAVI procedure performed by experienced operators in centers without on-site cardiac surgery is noninferior to TAVI procedure performed by the same operators in centers with on-site cardiac surgery in terms of all-cause death, stroke and rehospitalization for cardiovascular cause. The primary …
Preoperative Sleep Intervention on Postoperative Delirium in School-aged Children Undergoing Congenital Heart Surgery
This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical trial aimed to determine whether preoperative sleep interventions could reduce the incidence of adverse outcomes, such as postoperative delirium, in sleep-disordered school-aged children undergoing congenital heart surgery. The study will include infants and toddlers undergoing elective cardiac surgery with sleep disorders, assessed by …
Effects of Ciprofol on Myocardial Injury After Non-cardiac Surgery in Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery
Myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) refers to postoperative elevation of cardiac troponin (cTn) levels caused by underlying ischemic mechanisms (i.e., coronary artery supply-demand imbalance or atherosclerotic thrombosis) without obvious non-ischemic causes (such as pulmonary embolism), with at least one cTn concentration exceeding the 99th percentile of the test reference …
The Choice of Vasopressor to Prevent Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury After Major Non-Cardiac Surgery
Low blood pressure, also known as hypotension, is very common during major surgery under general anesthesia. Prolonged or severe hypotension can lead to complications such as kidney injury after surgery that slow down patient recovery. Anesthesiologists commonly administer medications called vasopressors to treat low blood pressure during surgery. These medications …
Prognostic Value of Novel Biomarkers on Adverse Renal Outcomes in High-Risk Cardiac Surgery Patients
This project aims to detect novel biomarkers from preoperative and early postoperative serum and urine samples of patients to screen and analyze the risk factors for predicting adverse postoperative renal outcomes in high-risk patients in cardiac surgery.
Effects of Low-dose Esmolol on Myocardial Injury After Non-cardiac Surgery in Elderly Frail Patients
This topic will focus on the following questions: Part one: To clarify the relationship between preoperative frailty and myocardial injury (cTnT ≥0.03) after non-cardiac surgery in elderly patients; To further explore the predictive factors of myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) in elderly frail patients before operation. Part Two: To …
PeRsonalized Blood prEssure Management on Postoperative Complications and Mortality in hIgh-risk Patients Undergoing Major Non-cardiac Surgery
High-risk populations, particularly elderly individuals and patients with cardiovascular comorbidities, exhibit markedly elevated incidences of postoperative myocardial injury (MINS), acute kidney injury (AKI), and mortality. Intraoperative hypotension (IOH), a pervasive clinical phenomenon affecting 40%-90% of surgical cases, Substantial observational evidence links IOH severity/duration to ischemic organ injuries (MINS, AKI) and …
Continuous Finger-cuff Arterial Pressure Monitoring and Intraoperative Hypotension During Non-cardiac Surgery: the Randomized DETECT II Trial
This is a randomized trial (1) investigating whether continuous finger-cuff - compared to intermittent oscillometric - arterial pressure monitoring reduces the amount of intraoperative hypotension (specifically, from the start of induction of general anesthesia until the end of surgery) in low-to-moderate risk patients having elective non-cardiac surgery.
The Effect of Noradrenaline Infusion Versus Standard Blood Pressure Management on Perioperative HYPotension in NOn-caRdiac Surgery HYP-NOR Trial
The effect of noradrenaline infusion versus standard blood pressure management on perioperative HYPotension in NOn-caRdiac surgery. The study aims to determine whether perioperative noradrenaline infusion is superior to standard blood pressure management for the occurrence of perioperative hypotension.
