Brief Summary

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

Patients with severe aortic stenosis often suffer from an acquired Von Willebrand syndrome by degeneration of the polymers during passage through the narrow valve leading to turbulences. We hypothesized that the diagnosis of acquired von Willebrand syndrome influence perioperative blood loss in patients undergoing open cardiac valve replacement.

Detailed Description

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

Patients with severe aortic stenosis often suffer from an acquired Von Willebrand syndrome by degeneration of the polymers during passage through the narrow valve leading to turbulences. After written consent and an extended anamnesis of existing coagulopathy, we take three blood samples in these patients: before surgery, on the day after surgery and 4 weeks after surgery. We determine von Willebrand factor in lab and by a point-of-care platelet function analyzer (Multiplate TM). We measure amount of mediastinal drainage after 24 hours and blood product consumption in these patients.
