Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To investigate whether the use of the DHF 02 hemofilter from LivaNova® after application of Brettschneider cardioplegia leads to a more stable sodium concentration in the blood and less pronounced electrolyte shifts overall compared to treatment without hemofiltration. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Compare the frequency of electrolyte-related complications (e.g., hyponatremia, cardiac arrhythmias, and risk of delirium) between the study and control groups. To analyze whether hemofiltration contributes to improved clinical outcomes, e.g., through shorter stays in the intensive care unit due to delirium prophylaxis, reduced need for electrolyte replacement, or fewer cardiac arrhythmias. | — |
