Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Participants, patients undergoing elective or urgent surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass, will be randomised to 1 of 3 equal groups. The groups consist of a control group, a group receiving intravenous lidocaine (1.5mg/kg bolus followed by 2mg/kg/hr infusion) during their operation, a group receiving oral doxycycline (200mg tablet) in the holding bay 0-90mins prior to being brought into theatre.
Intervention code [1] 313154 0
Treatment: Drugs
Comparator / control treatment
A group will receive neither treatment and their samples will be used as the control.
Control group
Active

Study design
Purpose of the study
Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
3 equal groups of 20 (totalling 60) will be written on paper concealed in opaque envelopes.
This will then be broken into 5 bundles of 12 (with 4 from each of the 3 treatment arms).
Envelopes within each bundle will then be shuffled repeatedly to ensure randomisation.

This technique is to facilitate interim analysis with equal numbers from each group represented.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Masking / blinding
Open (masking not used)

Efficacy
Statistical methods / analysis
Comparisons will be made using means paired analyses, computed with “PRISM” statistical software. Being a pilot we are in the hypothesis generating phase and have not performed power analysis.
It will be analysed using a "per protocol" approach.
