About this trial
This interventional prospective randomized study is designed to compare hemodynamic management using postural mobilization (+/- noradrenaline) versus noradrenaline only in patients undergoing open-heart coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Adult patient
patient requiring isolated coronary bypass surgery
Elective procedure or medical emergency
First cardiac surgery
Disqualifiers
Contraindication to an inotropic substance (only NA will be used)
Contraindication to passive leg raising
Patient in a life-threatening emergency
History of cardiac surgery
Trial design
Parallel
Treatments tested in this trial
passive leg raising for hemodynamic management during open-heart coronary bypass grafting
Procedure/SurgeryPassive leg raising will be used in the experimental group in order to manage hemodynamics: legs will be raised to an angle of approx. 45°
Use of Noradrenaline only in control group
Procedure/SurgeryNoradrenaline will be used for hemodynamic management. Passive leg raising will not be used in this group
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Assess use of noradrenaline in the experimental group (postural mobilization) vs control group (NA only) for hemodynamic management during open-heart coronary bypass graft surgery.
