Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Placebo Comparator

Arm Label

milrinone

normal saline

Arm Description

milrinone milrinone will be administered intravenously at a rate of 0.75ug/kg/min for 35 hours, and baseline catecholamines will be administered at the discretion of the physician.

placebo placebo (normal saline) will be administered intravenously for 35 hours, and baseline catecholamines will be administered at the discretion of the physician.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Number of participants died within 30 days postoperatively
Number of participants developed low cardiac output syndrome within the first 36 hours after initiation of study drug
Low cardiac output syndrome was defined as the following: clinical signs or symptoms (eg, tachycardia, oliguria, poor perfusion, or cardiac arrest) with or without a widened arterial-mixed venous oxygen saturation difference or metabolic acidosis; mechanical support of the circulation (eg, extracorporeal life support, ventricular assist device), a cardiac index determined by Pulse indicator continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) of <2.2 L/min/m2

Secondary Outcome Measures

Number of participants developed low cardiac output syndrome in the interval between 36 hours after initiation of study drug and the final Follow up. Cardiac index will be determined by Doppler echocardiography
Change in Vasoactive Inotrope Score.
Vasoactive Inotrope Score=100*Epinephrine dose (ug/kg/min)+100*Norepinephrine dose (ug/kg/min)+10*Dopamine dose (ug/kg/min)+10*Dobutamine dose (ug/kg/min) +10,000*Vasopressin dose (units/kg/min) +10*Milrinone dose (ug/kg/min)
Length of intensive care stay.
Length of intensive care stay will be calculated from date of ICU admission to date of ICU discharge
Length of hospital stay.
Length of hospital stay will be calculated from date of hospital admission to date of hospital discharge
Duration of mechanical ventilation.
Duration of mechanical ventilation will be calculated from date and time of ICU admission to date and time of extubation
Number of participants with improvement of ventriculoarterial coupling
ventriculoarterial coupling improvement will be assessed by means of ventriculoarterial coupling values shift closer to 1. ventriculoarterial coupling will be obtained as : (1-EF)/EF
Number of participants requiring mechanical circulatory support.
eg. Extra-Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation, ventricular assist device
Number of participants with a decrease in regional tissue oxygenation at least 20% from baseline.
Cerebral and abdominal regional tissue oxygenation will be monitored
Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events
Treatment-related adverse events will be evaluated by sponsor's drug safety surveillance reviewer

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This randomized, multi-center, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of milrinone compared with placebo in participants after corrective surgery for congenital heart disease. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio within 90 minutes after arriving in the intensive care unit (ICU), to receive either intravenous milrinone or placebo for 36 hours. Participants will be stratified according Vasoactive Inotrope Score after arriving in the ICU.
