Brief Summary

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

The goal of this study is to test the hypothesis that fiberoptic confocal microscopy (FCM) imaging during repair of common congenital heart defects is a useful adjunct for avoidance of conduction abnormalities.

Detailed Description

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

This is an interventional randomized controlled study to investigate the use of fiberoptic confocal microscopy (FCM) imaging for avoidance of conduction abnormalities during repair of common congenital heart defects. Study results will be compared to a cohort of similar surgical patients following standard surgical procedures where FCM was not used. We will analyze pre-and postoperative ECGs to identify conduction abnormalities.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Subjects will be randomized into two groups using permuted block and stratified according to type of surgical repair.
Primary Study Purpose

PREVENTION

Blinding Strategy

DOUBLE

Participants Outcome Assessors
Subjects and the physician reading ECGs will be blinded.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Non-imaging cohort

There will be no intervention for the non-imaging group. Subjects will receive standard of care for cardiac surgery.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

Imaging cohort

Up to 5mL of 1:1000 dilute fluorescite will be applied to cardiac tissue prior to imaging with Cellvizio 100 Series System with Confocal Miniprobes. The system will be used to assist the investigator with the operative course.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Fluorescite

Intervention Type DRUG

1 mL of Fluorescite will be diluted into 1L of saline. Up to 5mLs of the 1:1000 diluted solution will be applied topically to the cardiac tissue prior to imaging.

Cellvizio 100 Series System with Confocal Miniprobes

Intervention Type DEVICE

The microscopy system will image cardiac tissue.
