About this study

The proposed study will focus on anesthesia and anesthesia-induced hypotension as a possible cause for postoperative fluid retention and hyponatremia, and investigate gender differences in this response.

Read the detailed description

30 healthy women and 30 healthy men, who are scheduled for surgery of the middle ear or parotic gland are included in the study. Within each gender group, the subjects are randomized to receive perioperative intravenous fluid regimes either based on body weight or lean body mass (LBM). The surgery lasts for at least 3 hours, the intervention period (fluid administration according to protocol) will last 10-12 hours, the study period will be 20-24 hours. Blood samples for analysis of plasma sodium, potassium, glucose and osmolality are collected preoperatively and the following morning together with analysis of urine produced during the study period.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Fluid administrationProcedure or surgery

    Also called Fluid administration by body weight

    Preoperative: bolus of 10 ml/kg body weight. During operation: 5 ml/kg body weight/hr. Postoperative: 3 ml/kg body weight/hr

  • Perioperative fluid management based on Lean Body MassProcedure or surgery

    Also called Fluid administration by Lean Body Mass

    Preoperative: bolus of 12 ml/kg LBM. During operation: 6 ml/kg LBM/hr. Postoperative: 3.5 ml/kg LBM/hr

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Fluid administration and Perioperative fluid management based on Lean Body Mass in people with Hyponatremia, run by Karolinska University Hospital at 5 sites in Sweden.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jun 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Sweden. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Johan Ullman, MD., PhD. (+46 8 51 77 00 00, johan.ullman@karolinska.se), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change between preoperative and postoperative plasma sodium concentration (time frame: 24 hrs). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Jun 2013.
