Sumario: | INTRODUCTION: Perioperative coagulopathy is common in patients undergoing aortic surgery, increasing the risk of excessive blood loss and subsequent allogeneic transfusion. Blood conservation has become a vital part of cardiovascular surgery, but measures to protect platelets from destruction by cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) are still lacking. Autologous platelet concentrate (APC) may have potential benefits for intraoperative blood preservation, but its efficacy has not been studied extensively. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of APC as a blood conservation technique to reduce blood transfusion in adult aortic surgery. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is a prospective, single-centre, single-blind randomised controlled trial. A total of 344 adult patients undergoing aortic surgery with CPB will be enrolled and randomised to either the APC group or the control group with a 1:1 randomisation ratio. Patients in the APC group will receive autologous plateletpheresis before heparinisation, while those in the control group will not. The primary outcome is the perioperative packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusion rate. Secondary endpoints include the volume of perioperative pRBC transfusion; drainage volume within 72 hours post-surgery; postoperative coagulation and platelet function; and the incidence of adverse events. Data will be analysed according to the intention-to-treat principle. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This study was approved by the institutional review board of Fuwai Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College (no. 2022-1806). All procedures included in this study will be performed in adherence to the Helsinki Declaration. The results of the trial will be published in an international peer-reviewed journal. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: Chinese Clinical Trial Register (ChiCTR2200065834). |
