Study summary

This study will evaluate the performance of the Quantra System with the QPlus Cartridge in pediatric patients undergoing cardiovascular procedures.

Read the detailed description

Pediatric patients that require major sugical procedures, such as cardiac surgery, are especially vulnerable to perioperative coagulopathy due to age-related immaturity of the hemostatic system, exposure to hemodilution from circuit primes or intravenous volume loading, hypothermia during complex interventions, and the intrinsic bleeding of invasive cardiac procedures. These factors can produce clinically significant perioperative bleeding driven by platelet dysfunction, hypofibrinogenemia and other hemostatic defects. The Quantra System with the QPlus Cartridge is desinged to assess coagulation function of a whole blood sample at the point-of-care by measuring changes in the viscoelastic properties during clot formation. This multi-center study is aimed to demonstrate the performance of the QPlus Cartridge for its ability to aid in the evaluation of a pediatric patient's hemostatic status before, during and after cardiovascular procedures.

Study population

The study population includes pediatric patients \<18 years of age that are undergoing cardiovascular procedures.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Subject is \<18 years of age.
  • Subject is undergoing a cardiovascular procedure OR subject underwent cardiovascular surgery and presents with acute bleeding or suspected hypocoagulation/hypercoagulation in a post-surgical unit.
  • Subject's parent(s) or guardian(s) has signed an form. If required, subject has signed an assent form.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Corrected gestational age \<37 weeks.
  • Subject is enrolled in a study that might confound the result of the proposed study.
  • Subject is affected by a condition that, in the opinion of the clinical team, may pose additional risks.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
