简要总结
The purpose of this study is to compare intraoperative papaverine plus heparin to heparin alone for prevention of arterial spasm and maintenance of patency of peripheral arterial catheters during surgery in pediatric patients. The hypothesis is that periodic, intraoperative small-volume boluses of diluted papaverine plus heparin in peripheral arterial catheters of pediatric patients will prevent arterial spasm and help maintain patency of arterial catheters during general anesthesia.
详细描述
Peripheral arterial catheters measure blood pressure with every heartbeat and provide valuable information regarding the status of the heart and the overall well being. It is of utmost importance to maintain the utility and patency of these catheters throughout the procedure. As standard procedure, heparin, a blood thinner, is used routinely during the surgical procedure to keep these catheters from clotting, and papaverine, an arterial relaxation agent, is used after surgery to maintain patency of these catheters.
In this study, participants will be randomized to receive two boluses of papaverine with heparin during the procedure (experimental arm) or heparin alone during the procedure (control arm) [in both arms, the first bolus will be administered as soon as the arterial catheter is placed and secured and again one hour after initial bolus]. If the arterial catheter spasm/patency or waveform does not improve 10 minutes after the second bolus, then the anesthesiology care team will consider treating clinically with 0.3 mg of papaverine.

研究组 & 干预措施
Papaverine plus heparin during procedure, with rescue papaverine as needed
1 mL bolus of papaverine (0.12 mg/mL) plus heparin (2 units/mL) in saline (NaCl 0.9%) will be administered as soon as the arterial catheter is placed and secured, and a 1 mL bolus of papaverine (0.12 mg/mL) plus heparin (2 units/mL) in saline (NaCl 0.9%) will be administered one hour after initial bolus. If the arterial catheter spasm/patency or waveform does not improve 10 minutes after the second bolus, then the anesthesiology care team will consider treating clinically with 0.3 mg of papaverine.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of Participants With Optimal Arterial Waveform
时间窗: 5 minutes after first dose
Optimal waveform was defined as easy aspiration of a blood sample (negative aspiration is easy and draws back freely without cavitation, and takes no more than 30 seconds to draw 1 mL), absence of color change at the catheter insertion site, and presence of a dicrotic notch in the arterial pressure waveform (a distinct dicrotic notch implies system has good resolution at higher frequencies and is not overdamped).
次要结局
- Number of Participants With Optimal Arterial Waveform(60 minutes after first dose)
- Number of Participants With Suboptimal Waveforms Who Received Rescue Papaverine and for Whom Papaverine Rescued Suboptimal Waveforms(5 minutes after injection of rescue papaverine (about 70 minutes after first study drug dose and about 10 minutes after second study drug dose))
