      Benzodiazepine Use During Cardiac Surgery for Postoperative Delirium

      London, Ontario
      This trial is testing if using less of a sedative drug during heart surgery can reduce confusion afterward. It focuses on adults having open heart surgery, as many experience confusion post-surgery. The study aims to see if reducing this drug can prevent such confusion.

      Melatonin for Delirium

      Hamilton, Ontario
      This trial aims to test if melatonin, a natural sleep hormone, can prevent delirium in elderly surgical patients. Delirium is a common and serious issue for these patients, and melatonin might help by improving their sleep. Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland and has been used successfully for various medical conditions, especially sleep-related diseases.

      Intravenous Acetaminophen for Delirium After Cardiac Surgery

      Mississagua, Ontario
      Double blind, double dummy trial of the use of IV acetaminophen versus oral acetaminophen for the prevention of delirium after cardiac surgery. The underlying hypothesis is that better pain control and less use of narcotics will lead to a lower incidence of delirium from day 1 to 7 following cardiac surgery. Other important secondary outcomes are the total use of narcotics, ICU and hospital stay, improved cognitive function at 6 months and 1 year post surgery, NSAID use at each centre and associated NSAID complications.

      Methadone for Postoperative Pain

      Winston-Salem, North Carolina
      Cardiac surgery frequently leads to significant postoperative pain, with multiple different drug regimens being utilized (both opioid and non-opioid) in an attempt to alleviate this surgical pain. Methadone is currently one of the drugs that is being utilized to help control the pain. It can be given during and/or after surgery. This study hopes to identify the optimal dose of methadone to use to treat this surgical pain.
      No Placebo Group

      Trial Details

      Trial Status:Not Yet Recruiting

      69 Participants Needed

      Intercostal Plane Block for Post Cardiac Surgery Pain

      Toronto, Ontario
      The goal of this clinical trial is to assess whether the use of intermittent superficial parasternal intercostal plane blocks reduces opioid usage in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with median sternotomy. Participants randomized to the intervention group will receive the blocks with 0.2% ropivacaine administered via catheters placed in the superficial parasternal intercostal plane bilaterally under ultrasound guidance. Researchers will compare this group with a control group given 0.9% saline through similarly placed catheters. The primary outcome will be cumulative postoperative opioid use (measured as Milligram Morphine Equivalent (MME)) up to 72 hours following catheter insertion.

      Trial Details

      Trial Status:Recruiting
      Trial Phase:Unphased

      Key Eligibility Criteria

      Disqualifiers:Redo Sternotomy, Emergency Procedures, Clinical Instability, Weight < 50kg, Active Infection, Pregnancy, Chronic Opioid Use, Allergies, Cognitive Impairment, Investigational Drug/device, Others
      Must Not Be Taking:Opioids, Illicit Drugs

      340 Participants Needed

      Paravertebral Block for Post Cardiac Surgery Pain

      Vancouver, British Columbia
      This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of bilateral, paravertebral blockade (intervention) against sham blocks (control) placed prior to sternotomy in improving quality of recovery following cardiac surgery. Primary outcome: The hypothesis is that bilateral single-shot PVB at the thoracic spinal segmental levels T3/4, compared with sham blocks, improve the Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) score at 24 hours following cardiac surgery by a minimally clinically important difference of 8.0 or greater. Secondary outcomes: The hypothesis is that the intervention will reduce pain scores, opioid requirements, and related side effects; improve respiratory mechanics; and facilitate a better first night's rest/sleep in the first 24-48 hours compared to sham blocks.

      Trial Details

      Trial Status:Recruiting
      Trial Phase:Unphased
      Age:19+

      Why Other Patients Applied

      "I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

      "I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."

      "My orthopedist recommended a half replacement of my right knee. I have had both hips replaced. Currently have arthritis in knee, shoulder, and thumb. I want to avoid surgery, and I'm open-minded about trying a trial before using surgery as a last resort."

      "I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

      Frequently Asked Questions

      How much do Post Cardiac Surgery clinical trials pay?

      Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

      How do Post Cardiac Surgery clinical trials work?

      After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Post Cardiac Surgery trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Post Cardiac Surgery is 12 months.

      How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

      Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

      What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

      The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

      Do I need to be insured to participate in a Post Cardiac Surgery medical study?

      Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

      What are the newest Post Cardiac Surgery clinical trials?

      Most recently, we added Methadone for Postoperative Pain, Pericardiotomy for Cardiovascular Disease and Intravenous Acetaminophen for Delirium After Cardiac Surgery to the Power online platform.
