  • Objective: We have recently reported that prophylactic fibrinogen infusion reduces bleeding after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. Because fibrinogen for the first time was administered to patients without hereditary fibrinogen deficiency or ongoing bleeding, a detailed analysis of the effects of fibrinogen concentrate on biomarkers of coagulation, fibrinolysis, and platelet function was performed. Methods: Twenty CABG patients with preoperative plasma fibrinogen levels <3.8 g/L were included in a prospective study. Patients were randomized to preoperative infusion of 2 g fibrinogen concentrate (fibrinogen group) or no infusion (control group). Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), prothrombin time, activated clotting time, and plasma concentrations of fibrinogen, antithrombin, thrombin-antithrombin complex, prothrombin fragment 1.2, and d-dimer, thromboelastometry, platelet count, and platelet aggregometry were analyzed before and 15 minutes after infusion, and 2 and 24 hours after surgery. Results: Fifteen minutes after infusion of fibrinogen concentrate, fibrinogen plasma levels increased by 0.6 +/- 0.2 g/L (P < .001 between groups), and induced minimal changes in aPTT and plasma levels of antithrombin, while remaining variables remained unchanged. After surgery, fibrinogen levels no longer differed between groups. d-dimer was significantly higher after surgery in the fibrinogen group (P = .03), while none of the other markers were statistically different between groups. Conclusions: Infusion of 2 g fibrinogen to cardiac surgery patients, without hereditary or acquired fibrinogen deficiency or ongoing bleeding, results in no or minimal changes in biomarkers reflecting coagulation and platelet function. An increased release of fibrin degradation products was detected after surgery in fibrinogen-treated patients.
