| Scientific title | Autologous bone marrow-derived cells for cardioprotection during heart surgery |
| Study objectives | The principal hypothesis that will be tested is that the administration of autologous Bone Marrow Cells (BMCs) during cardiac surgery can reduce myocardial ischaemic injury and improve cardiac function and clinical outcome. This small clinical trial aims to prove the laboratory concept that autologous BMCs protect the heart against myocardial injury caused by ischaemia and serve as a base for a large trial aimed at investigating whether BMCs improve the clinical outcomes and have an impact on the costing of care. The specific objectives of this project are: 1. To investigate in a randomised, double-blinded study whether the administration of autologous bone marrow cells as an additive to cardioplegia reduces myocardial ischaemic injury during cardiac surgery. 2. To study whether the administration of autologous BMCs improves cardiac function during the early period following cardiac surgery. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Under review at present. |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Ischaemic heart disease |
| Intervention | Patients with triple vessel coronary artery disease with or without associated significant disease of the left main stem and undergoing elective CABG surgery will be recruited for the study. Patients will be randomised at the time of surgery to either of the following study groups: 1. Group I: control - receiving serum alone 2. Group II: receiving BMCs at then end of the first dose of cardioplegia and then at the end of each new dose of cardioplegia Autologous BMCs (diluted in 10 mL of autologous serum) will be administered into the aortic root at the end of cardioplegia infusion (last 20 mL of cardioplegia to ascertain that BMCs remain within the coronary vasculature during the ensuing ischaemic period) or the equivalent amount of serum to act as control. Blood cardioplegia will be used with an initial dose of 1 L and 0.5 L following the completion of each coronary anastomosis, usually every 15 - 20 minutes. Blood samples will be taken before surgery and four, 12, 24 and 48 hours after surgery for determination of plasma levels of troponin I. An Electrocardiogram (ECG) will be recorded before surgery and at four and 24 hours for the identification of new electrical ischaemic changes. A Swan-Ganz catheter will be floated into the pulmonary artery during the induction of anaesthesia for the assessment of cardiac function (cardiac index and stroke volume index) before surgery and 30 minutes, one, two, four, eight, 12, and 24 hours after surgery. Cardiac filling pressures (central venous pressure between 8 and 12 mmHg and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure between 12 and 16 mmHg with appropriate transfusion), heart rate (between 70 and 90 beats/minute with atrioventricular pacing if required) and systemic vascular resistance index (between 1200 and 1800 units using vasodilators such as Glyceryl Trinitrate [GTN] and vasoconstrictors as vasopressin if required) will be kept within the physiological range. Hospital mortality, the need for inotropic drugs (dopamine more than 10 mg/Kg/min and any other inotropic drug) or intra-aortic balloon pump to support cardiac function and the presence of severe cardiac arrhythmias requiring cardioversion or the use of anti-arrhythmic drugs will be recorded. |
