About this study

Official title: Effect of Intraoperative Volume Optimization on Outcome After Intrabdominal Surgery: a Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Comparative Study

The purpose of this study is to determine whether intraoperative goal-directed fluid management (with goal = cardiac stroke volume maximization) based on respiratory-induced pulse pressure variation monitoring may improve outcome after intrabdominal surgery

Read the detailed description

Recent studies strongly suggest that intraoperative oesophageal doppler guided fluid management may improve outcome after intrabdominal surgery. In these studies, however, the number of patients was often small, and management in control groups as well as postoperative complications were usually not precisely defined. In addition, widespread use of oesophageal doppler cannot be advocated in routine surgery, and the strategy necessitates repeated volume loading. This may lead to unnecessary intravenous fluids which may be deleterious, and intraoperative fluid restriction has also been shown to improve clinical outcome. In this context, indices reflecting the hemodynamic changes during mechanical ventilation (the so-called "dynamic indices", and more specifically the respiratory-induced pulse pressure variation) have been shown to accurately predict fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients. Automated and continuous calculation of pulse pressure variation variation from standard peripheral (typically radial) arterial line has recently been validated. This study was thus designed to determine whether intraoperative goal-directed fluid management (with goal = cardiac stroke volume maximization) based on pulse pressure variation monitoring would improve outcome after intrabdominal surgery.

What participants receive

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

  • volume optimizationOther

    Also called preload optimization

    Fluid management:

    • basal fluid administration = 5 ml/kg/h lactated Ringer's solution + systematic minimization of the arterial pulse pressure variation (PPV) to 10% or less by volume loading (6% hydroxyethyl starch) throughout surgery
    • hypovolemia suspected : fluids (1. crystalloids, 2. 6% hydroxyethyl starch) only if PPV is > 10%
  • standard volume administrationOther

    Also called fluid compensation

    Fluid management:

    • basal fluid administration = 5 ml/kg/h lactated Ringer's solution
    • hypovolemia suspected : fluids (1. crystalloids, 2. 6% hydroxyethyl starch) according to predetermined algorithm primarily based on mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and urine output, and secondary on PPV

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing volume optimization and standard volume administration in people with Hemodynamic Instability and Surgery, run by University Hospital, Lille at 6 sites in France.

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 1 inclusion and 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Nov 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in France. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Total number of patients with complications (time frame: first 7 postoperative days). 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 19 Nov 2013.
