Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a study to determine the safety and efficacy of liothyronine sodium/triiodothyronine (Triostat), a synthetic thyroid hormone, when given to infants with congenital heart disease during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients will be randomized to receive study drug or placebo and randomization will occur stratified to each diagnostic category. All patients undergo preoperative echocardiograms to provide preoperative cardiac function data. The study drug or placebo will be provided in the operating room as an iv bolus just prior to cardiopulmonary bypass and as a bolus delivered on release of the aortic cross-clamp. This will be followed by iv for 12 hours. Operative data will be collected including CPB time, aortic cross-clamp time, length and degree of hypothermia. These data will be extracted from the anesthesia record.

Liothyronine Sodium/Triiodothyronine

bolus administration of Liothyronine Sodium/Triiodothyronine (Triostat) immediately prior to CPB institution and after removal of aortic cross clamp, followed by repeated boluses, will be safe and will result in significant improvements in postoperative and clinical outcome parameters and cardiac contractile function.
