NCT02122679
Tranexamic acid is a relatively safe medicine that is used to help the body develop clots and slow down bleeding after large surgeries. While it has already been shown to work well in adults and older children, there is no information on whether it works, and how it works in children younger than 6 months old. The goal of our study is to try and understand whether and how tranexamic acid works in children younger than 6 months old who are having open heart surgery. We plan to study tranexamic acid by testing its effect when compared with a placebo. The investigators will use a method called randomization - which means patients who agree to be in the study will be entered into a computer. The computer will randomly assign them to either receive the medicine or the placebo. We will then compare effects on the 2 groups of patients. Our goal is to have 50 patients in each group, or 100 patients total. We will not know whether patients receive tranexamic acid or placebo until we review the data collected at the end of the study. Tranexamic acid is usually given to patients in the operating room during open heart surgery. During open heart surgery patients require cardio-pulmonary bypass which is a machine that replaces the function of the heart and lungs for a short period of time. This allows surgeons to do surgery on the heart itself without having to worry about it moving during the operation. The bypass machine has lots of tubes to carry the blood around it. When blood comes into contact with the tubing it has a tendency to clot. To prevent this patients are given a blood thinner called heparin. Although heparin prevents clotting in the bypass machine, it can also increase the risk of bleeding when the surgery is over. To reduce this risk patients are given another medicine at the completion of surgery called protamine to try and reverse the effect of the blood thinner, heparin. Even so bleeding remains a significant problem, especially for babies after open heart surgery. Being on the bypass machine and having a lot of suture (stitches) lines increase that risk. In addition, the bypass machine affects the function of platelets, the main component of the body's clotting system. We often have to replenish blood products after surgery to try and stop the bleeding. Some centers, including we , have used the medicine tranexamic acid to try and help with bleeding after surgery. There have been other studies that show it helps with fibrinolysis, which is another important part of the body's clotting system. However, that part of the clotting system is not well developed in infants and therefore likely does not play an important role in preventing bleeding in that age group. As such, it may be that tranexamic acid impacts platelet function as well, and it is that effect that helps decrease post-operative bleeding in infants younger than 6 months. This has not been previously studied. In order to study the effect that tranexamic acid has on platelets the investigators are proposing the investigators' research trial. The investigators plan to randomize patients to either receive tranexamic acid or placebo in the operating room as described above. The investigators will then draw a small amount of blood from each patient (total of approximately 1 tablespoon) and send it to a special lab for testing of platelet function. The lab test will help us understand whether the platelets function better when patients receive tranexamic acid instead of placebo. The investigators will also be monitoring other outcomes related to platelet function. These will include how much bleeding patients have after surgery when they are in the intensive care unit, and how much blood products they require to treat that bleeding. The investigators will also monitor labs that are checked routinely in all patients after open heart surgery. The investigators will also track how long it takes each patient to get off the ventilator and how long they spend in the ICU after surgery. All of this data will help us understand whether tranexamic acid makes a positive impact on outcomes after open heart surgery in infants less than 6 months old. The current standard of care is quite variable within our institution as well as at other institutions. Some anesthesiologists use tranexamic acid while others elect not to. There is no definitive guideline to its current use. The dosing differs from center to center, and there are some centers that do not use it at all. The investigators' hope is that the results of this study will help us understand the role tranexamic acid plays in preserving the function of platelets after open heart surgery in young infants, and whether that impact translates into improved outcomes for those patients. Based on the results of our research we hope to develop definitive guidelines for the use of tranexamic acid in the population of infants \<6 months old undergoing open heart surgery.

NCT01787968
T. cruzi has been divided into two main lineages: T. cruzi I (TcI) and T. cruzi II (TcII, including all non-TcI). TcI is predominant in Mexico and Central America, while TcII (non-TcI) is predominant in most of South America, including Argentina. In recent studies from Argentina, the risk of congenital transmission has been estimated to vary between 2.6 percent and 7.9 percent. By contrast, we know very little about the congenital transmission of TcI. It has been suggested that congenital transmission of T. cruzi is strain related, and there is an urgent need to know if TcI transmits differently than TcII (non-TcI). Our primary hypothesis is that congenital transmission rates are different for TcI versus TcII. Our secondary hypothesis is that the characteristics of T. cruzi infected mothers (e.g., age, parity, transmission in previous pregnancies) and their exposure to vectors are different in regions where TcI is predominant versus regions where TcII (non-TcI) is predominant. To test these hypotheses, we propose to conduct a prospective study to enroll at delivery 13,000 women in Mexico, 7,500 women in Honduras, and 10,000 women in Argentina. We will measure transmitted maternal T. cruzi antibodies in cord blood, and, if the results are positive, we will identify infants who are congenitally infected by performing parasitological examinations on cord blood and at 4-8 weeks, and serological follow-up at 10 months. We will also perform standard PCR, real-time quantitative PCR, and T. cruzi genotyping on maternal blood, standard PCR and T. cruzi genotyping on the cord blood of congenitally infected newborns, and serological examinations on siblings. We will estimate the exposure to vectors in the household. In addition, we will measure prenatal outcomes among infected and uninfected infants with seropositive mothers, and the birth weight of their siblings. The specific aims of this study are: 1) To determine the rate of congenital transmission of TcI compared to TcII (non-TcI); 2) To compare the T. cruzi infected mothers' characteristics and exposure to vectors in regions where TcI is predominant and regions where TcII (non-TcI) is predominant; and 3) To describe the birth outcomes of infected and uninfected infants born to TcI and TcII seropositive women.
