| Scientific title | Not provided at time of registration. |
| Study objectives | To compare outcomes in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting using either standard non-coated cardiopulmonary circuits or circuits in which all components have been coated with PMEA. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Not provided at time of registration |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Surgery: Cardiopulmonary bypass |
| Intervention | Prospective randomised controlled trial |
| Intervention type | Procedure/Surgery |
| Primary outcome measure(s) |
Post-operative blood loss and transfusion requirements, pulmonary, renal, neurological, cardiac and infective complications during hospitalisation, duration of ICU and hospital stay and thirty day mortality. The magnitude of the inflammatory response will be assessed by measuring plasma levels of inflammatory mediators. Platelet function and coagulation will be assessed by flow cytometry and thromboelastography. |
