About this trial

This randomized controlled study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intraoperative and early postoperative hemoadsorption using the Efferon® LPS device in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass in reducing the incidence and severity of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in the postoperative period. Each patient in the treatment group will undergo two hemoadsorption sessions: first during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) at the time of cardiac surgery, with the duration determined by the CPB time, and second within 24 hours postoperatively, for a minimum duration of 6 hours.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adult patients undergoing elective or emergency cardiac surgery with the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

EuroSCORE II ≥6%

Disqualifiers

Procalcitonin ≥2 ng/mL

Severe chronic liver disease, defined as Child-Pugh class C (>10 points) or clinically manifest hepatic failure

Dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (CKD)

Ongoing immunosuppressive therapy, including corticosteroids or cytotoxic agents, excluding standard perioperative medications

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Efferon LPS

    Device

    Efferon LPS, a medical device, which is a single-use cartridge filled with a polymeric adsorbent that selectively adsorbs endotoxin via surface-immobilized ligand and excessive cytokines via its intrinsic porosity. Efferon LPS hemoadsorption will be performed twice: first during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) at the time of cardiac surgery, with the duration determined by the CPB time, and second within 24 hours postoperatively, for a minimum duration of 6 hours.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

SOFA

The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score is equal to the sum of six indicators. The higher the score, the greater the insufficiency of the system being assessed. The higher the overall score, the greater the degree of multiorgan dysfunction. Violation of the function of each organ (system) is assessed separately in dynamics against the background of intensive therapy. With a score of no more than 12, multiple organ dysfunctions are assumed, 13-17 points indicate the transition of dysfunction to insufficiency, a score of about 24 indicates a high probability of death. The lower the SOFA score, the less pronounced organ failure and the better the patient's survival prognosis.

Time frame
1-7 days

Secondary outcomes

1

Vasopressor free days

* Vasopressor free days = 0 if subject dies within 28 days of starting vasopressor support. * Vasopressor free days = 28 - x if vasopressor support is successfully discontinued x days after initiation. * Vasopressor free days = 0 if the subject requires vasopressor support for more than 28 days.

Time frame
1-28 days
2

Renal replacement therapy (RRT) duration

* RRT-free days = 0 if the subject dies within 28 days of starting renal replacement therapy. * RRT-free days = 28 - x if RRT is successfully discontinued x days after initiation. * RRT-free days = 0 if the subject requires RRT for more than 28 days.

Time frame
1-28 days
3

Mechanical ventilation duration

Ventilator-free days = 0 if subject dies within 28 days of mechanical ventilation. Ventilator-free days = 28 - x if successfully liberated from ventilation x days after initiation. Ventilator-free days = 0 if the subject is mechanically ventilated for \>28 days.

Time frame
1-28 days
4

Length of stay in the intensive care unit

Time (number of days) from surgery to transfer from the intensive care unit within 60 days
