Role of Calcium Chloride Injection in Alleviating Atrial Fibrillation Post CABG
- Conditions
- Atrial Fibrillation
- Interventions
- Drug: Sodium Chloride 0.9% Inj
- Registration Number
- NCT06378021
- Lead Sponsor
- Helwan University
- Brief Summary
This study hypothesize that injecting calcium chloride (CaCl2) into the major atrial ganglionated plexus (GPs) during on pump Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) can reduce the incidence of Post operative Atrial fibrillation in the first 7 days after surgery.The study is designed to be prospective interventional study two armed RCT for on pump CABG patient.
The intervention arm will be injected with Calcium chloride in the four major atrial ganglionic plexus The control arm will be injected with sodium chloride to determine the effect of Calcium chloride on Post CABG Atrial fibrillation
- Detailed Description
This study hypothesize that injecting calcium chloride into the major atrial ganglionic plexus (GPs) during On pump Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) can reduce the incidence of Post operative Atrial fibrillation by calcium-induced autonomic neurotoxicity, the incidence of Post operative Atrial fibrillation can be reduced by suppressing the function of the major atrial GPs and the surrounding neural network that play an important role in initiating Post operative Atrial fibrillation. The study is designed to be prospective interventional study two armed RCT for on pump CABG patient. The plan of work will include dividing the patients into 2 randomized control groups In the intervention group patients will be injected with 5% Calcium chloride in the 4 Major atrial ganglionic plexus The other arm will be Coronary artery bypass graft patients who will be injected with sodium chloride 0.9% to compare the two groups to evaluate to evaluate the effect of Calcium chloride in post CABG atrial fibrillation between the 2 arms of the study.

- INTERVENTIONAL
- Study Design
- PARALLEL
- Arm && Interventions
Group Intervention Description patients who will receive their regular standard of care without calcium chloride injection Sodium Chloride 0.9% Inj A group of patients who will undergo Coronary artery bypass graft surgery will be injected with normal saline in the ganglionic Plexus during Coronary artery bypass graft to act as a comparator to determine if calcium chloride injection alleviate Atrial fibrillation post surgery Calcium chloride injection in ganglionated plexis for Atrial Fibrillation alleviation post CABG Calcium Chloride The Patients in the intervention arm will be injected with Calcium chloride in the 4 major atrial ganglionated plexis after the by pass is completed.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in number of patients who developed Atrial fibrillation Up to one week from the time of surgery determined by serial ECGs per day Compare if calcium chloride injection decrease the percentage of patients who developed Atrial fibrillation in intervention group with those in placebo group
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in length of hospital stay Up to the time of patient discharge from the hospital (from the time of post Coronary artery bypass graft surgery) investigate if calcium chloride will decrease duration of hospital stay compared with those in the placebo group who are injected with normal saline
