Study objectivesDoes preoperative hyperoxia therapy reduce the serum levels of S100b protein, InterLeukin-6 (IL6), InterLeukin-8 (IL8), L-selectin, P-selectin, Inter-Cellular Adhesion Molecule 1 (ICAM-1), and improve neurological outcome in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass?
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedCardiovascular: Cardiopulmonary bypass
InterventionRandomised controlled trial comparing:
1. Hyperoxia therapy
2. No therapy

Study patients will receive the same intra-operative, postoperative and follow-up care as routine patients and as per unit protocol. A 30-day postoperative neuropsychological assessment will be undertaken. The patient will continue to receive routine postoperative follow-up care as per unit protocol.

The patients will undergo three sessions of hyperoxia therapy in the hyperbaric chamber situated at the BUPA Hospital, Anlaby Road, Hull. Each therapy consists of three 20-minute sessions in the hyperbaric chamber breathing 1005 O2 at 2.5 atmospheres interspread with five minutes of air breathing.

Blood samples will be taken for estimation of serum IL6, IL8, sE-selection, ICAM-1 and neutrophil CD18. This will be taken immediate pre-operation, at the end of the operation, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours and fifth day post-operation. Blood samples for estimation of S100B will be taken immediate pre-operation, at the end of the operation, two hours and four hours after the operation.

A baseline neuropsychological test will be done within 24 h prior to the operation. The first postoperative assessment will be carried out when the performance is more stable, that is, three months postoperatively. To ensure objectivity and reliability of the assessment, the testing of each patient will be undertaken by the same doctor.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measureData collected will be entered into the research department computer and statistical analysis will be done using the Stars Direct Package. Demographics, measures and results of data analysis will be represented as tables, graphs, bar charts and pie charts where applicable. Statistical significance will be set at P-value < 0.05.
