No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of the present study is to determine whether ulinastatin, urinary anti-trypsin inhibitor, attenuates cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)-activated systemic inflammatory response in cardiac surgery with CPB.

Serial measurements and analysis of several inflammatory cytokines (bactericidal permeability increasing protein, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α)as well as markers of cardiac injury, renal impairment and oxygenation profile will be performed to determine ulinastatin's efficacy.

Conditions
