A Phase II, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study for High-Dose Hydroxocobalamin (Vitamin B12A) for Vasopressor Refractory Hypotension Following Cardiopulmonary Bypass

The study team will evaluate the medication Hydroxocobalamin (B12a) for treatment of low
blood pressure after cardiac surgery.

If subjects meet the criteria for inclusion in the study based on the subjects blood pressure
the subject will be randomized to receive the study drug or a placebo. Subjects blood
pressure will be monitored closely for the first 30 minutes and then have standard intensive
care unit (ICU) care afterwards. Kidney dysfunction will be assessed for changes in urine

subjects will be contacted by phone for follow up after 30 days.
