About this study

Official title: Anesthesiological Management of Hemodynamics and Gas Exchange for Retroperitoneal Adrenalectomies

This study is a prospective, perioperative evaluation of hemodynamic and respiratory parameters in patients undergoing retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomies.

Read the detailed description

Due to their underlying disease, patients with adrenal tumors are prone to episodes of hyper- and hypotension. Furthermore, excessive hypercarbia and an increased arterial-alveolar CO2 difference can be seen during these operations.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Adrenal Tumors, run by Kliniken Essen-Mitte at 1 site in Germany.

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 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Arterial-alveolar Carbon dioxide Difference (time frame: 3 years). 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 NCT00894335, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
