What this trial studies

This observational study evaluates a novel electrochemical-based device designed for the rapid detection of fibrinogen levels in patients undergoing Type A aortic dissection surgery. By utilizing a small amount of blood, the device aims to provide point-of-care results that can be compared to traditional laboratory methods. The study will assess the analytical performance of this device in a clinical setting, focusing on its effectiveness in monitoring fibrinogen concentrations during critical surgical procedures.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 and older who are undergoing surgery for acute Type A aortic dissection.

Not a fit: Patients who are not undergoing surgery for Type A aortic dissection or those who do not require routine hemostasis analysis may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this device could enable quicker and more accurate monitoring of fibrinogen levels, potentially improving patient outcomes during surgery.

How similar studies have performed: While the approach of using electrochemical methods for fibrinogen detection is innovative, similar studies have shown promise in point-of-care diagnostics, suggesting potential for success.

Eligibility criteria

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Part1 Phase I-Laboratory calibration. The electrochemical method was employed to detect the fibrinogen concentration of standard quality control materials with varying concentration gradients, and the corresponding current values were recorded for constructing a standard curve of fibrinogen concentration.

Phase II-Assay performance using clinical samples. Subject is 18 years and underwent routine hemostasis analysis. using human biological samples already collected for routine hemostasis analysis, The samples were centrifuged at 2500g for 15 min at room temperature, to obtain PPP (residual platelet count of \<10 × 10\^9/L) and stored at-20℃used for determination by electrochemical method within 2 weeks, Each clinical sample was tested three times

Part2

Inclusion Criteria:

Subject underwent surgery for acute type A aortic dissection at our hospital, Subject is 18 years, Subject requires routine TEG measurement, Subject use human fibrinogen concentrate during surgery.

Exclusion Criteria:

Use Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation after surgery, inability to obtain written informed consent
