Summary

Introduction:

Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) correction with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) poses a risk of ischemia-reperfusion injury, especially in cyanotic myocardium. Alpha-tocopherol, a potent antioxidant, may reduce myocardial damage during surgery.

Methods:

This randomized controlled trial included 58 ToF patients aged 1-10 years undergoing definitive surgery with CPB at Integrated Heart Center, Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either parenteral alpha-tocopherol (4 mg/kg) or placebo at the initiation of CPB. The primary outcome was postoperative troponin I level.
