Brief summary

The goal of the study is to determine whether the use of Human Fibrinogen Concentrate (RiaSTAP) will decrease blood loss and the need for component blood therapy in neonates and infants undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass.

Detailed description

The goal of the study is to determine whether the use of Human Fibrinogen Concentrate (RiaSTAP) will decrease blood loss and the need for component blood therapy in neonates and infants undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass. RiaSTAP will be administered after termination of Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB) at a dose of 70 mg/kg, in a prospective, randomized, controlled study. We hypothesize that the administration of RiaSTAP in this manner will reduce peri-operative bleeding and transfusion requirements.

Inclusion criteria

* Neonatal and infant cardiac patients presenting for open-heart surgery at Nicklaus Children's Hospital will be eligible for enrollment in the study.

Exclusion criteria

* Patients who fall outside of the age range for the study will be excluded. Patients known to have had an anaphylactic or severe reaction to the drug or its components will not be enrolled. At the time of the rewarming ROTEM, any patient with a FIBTEM MCF \> 15mm, will be excluded.
