Cerebrum and Cardiac Protection With Allopurinol in Neonates With Critical Congenital Heart Disease Requiring Cardiac Surgery With Cardiopulmonary Bypass

Обзор

Neurodevelopmental impairment due to delayed brain development and brain injury is a fundamental problem in children with critical congenital heart disease (CCHD). Significant longterm motor-, cognitive-, and behavioral problems are the result of early postnatally and perioperatively induced brain injury. Allopurinol, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor, prevents the formation of toxic free oxygen radicals, thereby limiting hypoxia-reperfusion damage. Both animal and neonatal studies suggest that administration of allopurinol reduces hypoxic-ischemic brain injury, is cardioprotective, and safe. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of allopurinol administered early postnatally and perioperatively in children with a CCHD requiring cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.

Вмешательства

• Препарат Allopurinol
  Allopurinol powder for solution for infusion (PFI) 20 mg/kg body weight per administration will be administered early postnatally (within 45 minutes and 12 hours after the first dose), preoperatively (12 hours before surgery), intraoperatively (during surgery) and postoperatively (24 hours after surgery) to the neonate in case of a prenatal CCHD diagnosis. Allopurinol PFI will be administered only pre-, intra- and postoperatively to the neonate in case of a postnatal CCHD diagnosis.
• Препарат Mannitol
  Mannitol powder for solution (PFI) placebo will be administered early postnatally (within 45 minutes and 12 hours after birth), preoperatively (12 hours before surgery), intraoperatively (during surgery), and postoperatively (24 hours after surgery) to the neonate in case of a prenatal CCHD diagnosis. Mannitol PFI-placebo will be administered only pre-, intra- and postoperatively to the neonate in case of a postnatal CCHD diagnosis.
