Study summary

Coagulopathic-induced bleeding after cardiopulmonary bypass in cardiac surgery patients is common and is associated with adverse outcomes in cardiac surgery. The hypothesis of the study is that FEIBA will be a more effective treatment than standard of care (FFP) in cardiac surgery patients who have coagulopathic-induced bleeding. This study is being conducted to determine the efficacy of FEIBA versus FFP as first line therapy in correcting coagulopathic induced microvascular bleeding in cardiac surgery patients.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Total post-treatment pRBC transfusion within 24 hours of surgery

    Time frame: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes

  1. Total pRBC transfusion after administration of study drug

    Time frame: From time of administration of study drug until time of discharge or up to 3 months, whichever comes first.

  2. Total units of posttreatment platelet transfusion within 24 hours of surgery

    Time frame: 24 hours

  3. Total units of posttreatment cryoprecipitate transfusion within 24 hours of surgery

    Time frame: 24 hours

  4. Total units of FEIBA given within 24 hours of surgery

    Time frame: 24 hours

  5. Total units of Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) given within 24 hours of surgery

    Time frame: 24 hours

  6. Total mLs of chest tube output within 12 hours of surgery

    This is being assessed as chest tube output may be an indicator of ongoing bleeding

    Time frame: 12 hours

  7. Incidence of adverse postoperative events

    This can include thrombotic events, acute kidney injury, reoperation for bleeding, prolonged intubation, atrial fibrillation, anaphylaxis.

    Time frame: Perioperative

  8. Length of intubation

    Time frame: Perioperative

  9. Length of hospital stay

    Time frame: From date of hospital admission until date of discharge or up to 3 months, whichever comes first.

  10. 30-day mortality

    Time frame: 30 days
