Clinical Trial: Anti-thrombin III (ATIII) vs Placebo in Children (<7mo) Undergoing Open Congenital Cardiac Surgery
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional
Official Title: Double Blind Randomized Placebo-controlled Study in Children (<6mo) Comparing the Effects of Anti-thrombin III (ATIII) or Placebo on the Coagulation System in Infants With Known Low ATIII Levels Un
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to test whether the administration of ATIII during the intra-operative period results in improved anticoagulation for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and an attenuation of the activation of the coagulation cascade, as represented by a decrease in fibrin degradation products. The investigators believe this benefit would extend into the post-operative period resulting in a decreased incidence of thrombosis generation, as represented by a decrease in fibrin degradation products in the ICU period.
