An observational study in Heart Defects,Congenital and Heart Septal Defects, Atrial, sponsored by Oslo University Hospital. Completed at 1 site in Norway. Open to participants aged 6 Months to 10 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2017-04-11.
Sponsored by Oslo University Hospital · Observational
This project will evaluate fluid balance and oedema formation in children with the same congenital heart disease (Atrial Septal Defect) who will either go through heart surgery with the use of Cardio Pulmonary Bypass and hypothermia or through interventional catheterization. The investigators will measure interstitial colloid osmotic pressure, distribution of proteins and cytokines. The study hypothesis is that "Oedema developed during heart surgery is caused by reduced colloid osmotic pressure gradient through the capillary membrane".
82 studies on the registry are indexed under Heart Septal Defects; 9 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 41 is below the median of 75 across 24 observational studies indexed under Heart Septal Defects.
