Measurement of Circulating Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) for Diagnosis and Prognosis of Various Diseases and Evaluation of Tissue Damage

Completed
Conditions
Correlation of cFDNA During CPB to Laboratories SIRS Parameters and Clinical Outcomes
Registration Number
NCT05094960
Lead Sponsor
Soroka University Medical Center
Brief Summary

To characterize the changes in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) levels during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and to access their association with outcomes compared to standard scores.

Detailed Description

In a prospective study, the investigators enrolled seventy-one consecutive patients undergoing non-emergent coronary artery bypass grafting. Blood was drawn at baseline, after 20 and 40 minutes on CPB, after cross-clamp removal, and 30 minutes after chest closure. cfDNA was measured in sera by fluorescent method.

The investigators hypothesize that cfDNA measured by will reflect the magnitude of inflammation induced by CPB. Thus, these measurements could serve for the real-time prognosis of patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The investigators correlate cFDNA to laboratories and clinical outcomes.
