Brief Summary

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

The purporse of this study is evaluate whether fibrinogen concentrate reduces postoperative bleeding in pediatric cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary by-pass.

Detailed Description

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

Cardiac surgery in children may be associated with excessive perioperative bleeding. Perioperative excessive bleeding is associated with need of transfusion with allogeneic blood products such as red blood cells, fresh frozen plasma, platelet pools, and cryoprecipitate. Furthermore, bleeding may result in re-exploration, which is associated with increased morbidity and mortality.Recent studies have shown that patients and children undergoing cardiac surgery with pump often experience a significant drop in their levels and function of fibrinogen, and it would be in part responsible for the bleeding. Fibrinogen concentrate (Haemocomplettan P)may reduce perioperative bleeding, requirements of blood transfusion and clinical outcomes in children undergoing cardiac surgery with pump.

fibrinogen concentrate

patients randomized to fibrinogen group receive intravenous infusion of drug prepared based on ROTEM measurement of maximum clot firmness (MCF)

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Fibrinogen Concentrate

Intervention Type DRUG

Fibrinogen Concentrate is to be administered as an intravenous infusion after discontinuation of cardiopulmonary bypass and administration of protamine. Subjects are to be given Fibrinogen Concentrate at an individually determined dose based on FIBTEM MCF and body weight as follows: (15 \[mm\] - MCF \[mm\]) \* body weight \[kg\] / 140 \[mm\*kg/g\] = gram fibrinogen to be dosed as Fibrinogen Concentrate. Fibrinogen Concentrate is to be infused over 1 to 2 minutes. After Fibrinogen Concentrate infusion, bleeding treatment will follow the predefined, standardized treatment regimen.

control

patients randomized to the control group will receive the infusion of 0.9% saline (SF0,9%) prepared based on ROTEM measurement of maximum clot firmness (MCF)

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

control

Intervention Type OTHER

0.9% saline is to be administered as an intravenous infusion after discontinuation of cardiopulmonary bypass and administration of protamine. Patients randomized to the control group will receive the infusion of 0.9% saline (SF0,9%) prepared based on ROTEM measurement of maximum clot firmness (MCF). 0.9% saline is to be infused over 1 to 2 minutes. After 0.9% saline infusion, bleeding treatment will follow the predefined, standardized treatment regimen.
