Brief Summary

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

A randomized, controlled study including infants with non-cyanosis congenital heart disease (CHD) in need of surgical correction involving cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was established. Infants aged 1 month to 1 years were enrolled between June 2021 and July 2022. The patients in treatment group were supplied with probiotics consisting of Bifidobacterium infantis and Lactobacillus perioperatively and patients in control group were provided with placebo. Data concerning patients' clinical outcome such as diarrhea were collected. Blood samples were collected for measurement of fatty acid binding protein 2 (FABP2), diamine oxidase (DAO), d-lactic acid (D-LA) and C-reactive protein (CRP). Stool samples were collected to investigate the changes of intestinal flora.

Study Groups

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

Treatment group

In treatment group, patients received 1×109 colony forming units (CFU) /day of probiotic, which was provided by Hangzhou Grand Biologic Pharmaceutical INC (Zhejiang, China) in the form of freeze-dried powder containing Bifidobacterium infantis and Lactobacillus with a density of 109 CFU/g. The probiotic powder was mixed with lactose and portioned into sachets with the help of Nanjing Medical University Central Pharmacy.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

probiotics containing Bifidobacterium infantis and Lactobacillus

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Patients were provided with probiotics containing Bifidobacterium infantis and Lactobacillus. This intervention was started the day after patients' administration and lasted until the day before discharge.

Control group

Patients in the control group received lactose as placebo. The placebo was packed in sachets and provided in the same way as treatment group.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

placebos containing lactose

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Patients received lactose as placebo.This intervention was started the day after patients' administration and lasted until the day before discharge.
