Ketamine and Kidney Injury in Cardiac Surgery

Overview

Información sobre este estudio

The purpose of this study is to investigate cardiac surgical procedures requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Ketamine has been demonstrated to have an anti-inflammatory effect as shown by reductions in Interleukin 6 (IL-6) levels.  Postoperative dysfunctions in which inflammation has been implicated may be reduced by this anti-inflammatory effect.  Use of inotropic and vasopressor support, hemodynamic variables, incidence of renal dysfunction, and effect on biomarkers of renal function in the early postoperative period. Specifically, we will test the hypothesis that ketamine provides anti-inflammatory effects in this population of patients undergoing surgery requiring CPB and that the incidence of renal dysfunction will be decreased.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Presenting for cardiac surgery at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.

- Scheduled to undergo complex cardiac surgery with the use of cardiopulmonary bypass.
Complex cardiac surgery will be defined as surgery involving more than one heart

graft procedures (aortic repair not excluded if meets other criteria).

Exclusion Criteria:

- Left or right ventricular assist device implantation or explantation.

- Procedures not requiring cardiopulmonary bypass.

- Active infection or sepsis requiring antimicrobial therapy and/or vasopressor therapy
(treated endocarditis is not excluded).

- Severe hepatic disease resulting in ascites.

- Pre-operative significant renal dysfunction including a baseline creatinine equal to
or greater than 2 mg/dL or requiring dialysis.

- Immunosuppressive medication use (including current IV or oral steroids use, use of
anti-rejection medications for transplant within 1 month, or chemotherapy within 6
months).

- Immunodeficiency syndrome including HIV/AIDS, leukemia, and multiple myeloma

Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.
