Assessment of the Usefulness of Hemopatch in Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery

Not Applicable
Conditions
CHD - Coronary Heart Disease
Registration Number
NCT03340090
Lead Sponsor
Medical University of Lodz
Brief Summary

The study aim is to assess polyethylene glycol (PEG) coated collagen patch (Hemopatch) on the quality of drainage after surgery, the length of hospital stay, the number of reoperations due to haemorrhage and treatment cost. The study will be conducted in 200 patients undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) with the use of extracorporeal circulation and Internal mammary Artery (IMA) harvesting. Traditional method of haemostasis will be applied in 100 patients and Hemopatch will be additionally used in 100 subjects to prevent haemorrhage after IMA harvesting and sternum closure.
