Bleeding, Cardiac Disease, Surgery
Conditions
Brief summary
Coagulopathic-induced bleeding after cardiopulmonary bypass in cardiac surgery patients is common and is associated with adverse outcomes in cardiac surgery. The hypothesis of the study is that FEIBA will be a more effective treatment than standard of care (FFP) in cardiac surgery patients who have coagulopathic-induced bleeding. This study is being conducted to determine the efficacy of FEIBA versus FFP as first line therapy in correcting coagulopathic induced microvascular bleeding in cardiac surgery patients.
Interventions
Subjects randomized to FEIBA will receive up to 2 vials of 500U of FEIBA through a preexisting central line at a rate that does not exceed 2 units per kg of body weight per minute for the study intervention.
Subjects randomized to FFP will receive up to 2 units of FFP intravenously through a preexisting central line.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Total post-treatment pRBC transfusion within 24 hours of surgery | 24 hours |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Total pRBC transfusion after administration of study drug | From time of administration of study drug until time of discharge or up to 3 months, whichever comes first. | — |
| Total units of posttreatment platelet transfusion within 24 hours of surgery | 24 hours | — |
| Total units of posttreatment cryoprecipitate transfusion within 24 hours of surgery | 24 hours | — |
| Total units of FEIBA given within 24 hours of surgery | 24 hours | — |
| Total units of Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) given within 24 hours of surgery | 24 hours | — |
| Total mLs of chest tube output within 12 hours of surgery | 12 hours | This is being assessed as chest tube output may be an indicator of ongoing bleeding |
