About this study

Official title: Intraoperative Goal Directed Fluid Therapy in Lean and Obese Patients

Intraoperative fluid demand will be monitored by Esophageal Doppler in lean and obese patients.

Read the detailed description

To our knowledge no data are available on the effect of goal-directed fluid therapy on hemodynamics in lean patients and obese patients, respectively. Consequently, we want to compare lean patients (BMI <25) vs. obese patients (BMI >25) in regard of their respective needs for intraoperative fluid therapy, and the impact of the goal-directed fluid regimen on tissue oxygenation.

Being tested
fluidotherapy with ringer-lactate

What participants receive

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

  • fluidotherapy with ringer-lactateDrug

    a bolus of 250ml ringer-lactate is administered, if there is fluid demand monitored by the Esophageal Doppler

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. different hemodynamic fluid responses in the different groups

    Measured: every 10 minutes during surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Subcutaneous oxygen tension (PsqO2)

    Measured: every 10 minutes during surgery and 2 hours postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing fluidotherapy with ringer-lactate in people with Goal Directed Fluid Therapy, run by Medical University of Vienna at 1 site in Austria.

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 9 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 18 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Austria. 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?

different hemodynamic fluid responses in the different groups (time frame: every 10 minutes during surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00860704, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 18 Oct 2018.
