Comparison of Early-stage Outcomes of Spontaneous Drainage Versus Negative-pressure Drainage Monitoring in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: a Prospective Randomized Controlled Study
Sponsor: Başakşehir Çam & Sakura City Hospital
Summary
Cardiovascular surgery clinics currently employ drainage monitoring methods involving both negative pressure and non-negative pressure systems. Literature reviews indicate that while drainage monitoring using negative pressure has been evaluated in thoracic surgery studies, it has not been assessed in the context of cardiovascular surgery patients. This study was designed to determine the risk-benefit profile of negative pressure drainage monitoring in patients undergoing open-heart surgery and to ascertain whether negative pressure influences the incidence or volume of postoperative tamponade or pericardial effusion.

monitoring of drainage using negative pressure
During the routine postoperative monitoring of drainage, negative pressure (approximately -10 mmHg) will be applied for 48 hours to the drainage sites of patients in the study group via a tube connected to the hospital's negative pressure system. Apart from this, all groups will undergo routine monitoring for Coronary Artery Bypass Graft patients, and there will be no other differences in procedures, medications, or treatments between the groups. Negative-pressure drainage monitoring is already in use at the clinics.
