PCC vs. FFP for Post Cardiopulmonary Bypass Coagulopathy and Bleeding

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Prothrombin Complex Concentrates
Blood Loss, Surgical
Cardiovascular Surgical Procedures
Fresh Frozen Plasma
Bleeding
Interventions
Biological: Fresh frozen plasma (FFP)
Registration Number
NCT02557672
Lead Sponsor
Mayo Clinic
Brief Summary

This will be the first prospective randomized controlled clinical trial directly comparing Prothrombin Complex Concentrate (PCC) Compared to Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) for post cardiopulmonary bypass microvascular bleeding and factor-mediated coagulopathy. Is there a difference in bleeding and transfusion requirements in patients received PCC versus FFP?

Fresh frozen plasmaFresh frozen plasma (FFP)After cardiopulmonary bypass, patients will receive protamine at dose 0.01 mg/unit of heparin given with target activated clotting time (ACT) within 10% of baseline value. After protamine administration the ACT, complete blood count (CBC), prothrombin time (PT)/ international normalized ratio (INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), and fibrinogen, will be collected via preexisting arterial access. If ACT \>10% baseline additional protamine will be given at the anesthesiologists discretion. Evaluation and determination of excessive microvascular bleeding in the surgical field will occur 10 minutes after return of ACT to within 10% of baseline. Patients with clinical evidence of excessive microvascular bleeding in the surgical field as determined by the surgical team, along with a PT \>16.6 sec/ INR \>1.6 sec will receive fresh frozen plasma as this is standard therapy per our institutional algorithm at a dose of 10-15 mL/kg rounded up to the nearest unit.
Prothrombin complex concentrateProthrombin complex concentrate (Human)After cardiopulmonary bypass, patients will receive protamine at dose 0.01 mg/unit of heparin given with target ACT within 10% of baseline value. After protamine administration the ACT, CBC, PT/ INR, APTT, and fibrinogen, will be collected via preexisting arterial access. If ACT \>10% baseline additional protamine will be given at the anesthesiologists discretion. Evaluation and determination of excessive microvascular bleeding in the surgical field will occur 10 minutes after return of ACT to within 10% of baseline. Patients with clinical evidence of excessive microvascular bleeding in the surgical field as determined by the surgical team, along with a PT \>16.6 sec/ INR \>1.6 sec will receive Prothrombin complex concentrate (Human) 15 units/kg.
