Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Prospective, monocentric study in open, aimed at evaluating the effects of supplementation with calcifediol on left ventricular function parameters in cardiopathic subjects undergoing major orthopedic surgery.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 4

Detailed Description

Population of the study: 47 cardiopathic patients with hypovitaminosis D supplemented with calcifediol to reach vitamin D levels> 30 ng / ml within 6 months. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the improvement of the ejection fraction or GLS (global longitudinal strain) calculated by speckle tracking at 6 months in cardiopathic patients with vitamin D deficiency during functional recovery after major orthopedic surgery.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: cardiopathic patients in hypovitaminosis

Didrogyl 10 ml: 10 drops a day to obtain levels of vitamin D > 30 ng /ml. Once these values are obtained lower the dose to 4-5 drops a day, with the aim, however, of keeping the plasma values between 30 and 60 ng/ml during 6 months of the study

Drug: Didrogyl
Calcifediol will be administered at a dose of 10 drops per day (as indicated for use) for 6 months or until vitamin D levels> 30 ng / ml are obtained. Once these values have been obtained, the dosage can be reduced to a dosage of 4/5 drops of calcifediol (1 drop contains 5mcg of calcifediol) with the aim to maintain the plasma values of 25 (OH) D in a optimal range between 30-60 ng / ml during the 6 month of the duration of the study.
