Summary
The purpose of this study is to test whether the administration of ATIII during the intra-operative period results in improved anticoagulation for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and an attenuation of the activation of the coagulation cascade, as represented by a decrease in fibrin degradation products. The investigators believe this benefit would extend into the post-operative period resulting in a decreased incidence of thrombosis generation, as represented by a decrease in fibrin degradation products in the ICU period.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- All patients less than 7 months of age going for cardiac surgery that will require cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with a documented ATIII level below 70%
Exclusion Criteria

- On Ecmo (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation ) at time of surgery
- Known history of thrombosis
- Renal failure as described by the pediatric RIFLE criteria
- H/o intracranial hemorrhage
- Prematurity less than 37 weeks estimated gestational age
- Previously diagnosed pro-thrombotic or hemorrhagic disorder
- Prior ATIII supplementation
- Prior therapeutic anticoagulant use
