Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to help us learn what the best amount of fluid is that patients should receive during pancreas surgery. Patients will receive either the liberal fluid amount for this surgery or a restricted fluid amount. Both amounts of fluid have been used safely in patients having similar surgeries.

About this study

Official title: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial of Restrictive Versus Liberal Perioperative Fluid Management for Patients Undergoing Pancreatic Resection

The purpose of this study is to help us learn what the best amount of fluid is that patients should receive during pancreas surgery. Patients will receive either the liberal fluid amount for this surgery or a restricted fluid amount.

Both amounts of fluid have been used safely in patients having similar surgeries. These amounts have not been compared in pancreatic surgery. The fluids regimens that will be given are not experimental.

This study will compare patients in the liberal and restricted fluid groups in terms of the nature of any surgical complications (problems)and recovery from surgery, including length of hospital stay.

What participants receive

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

  • restrictive perioperative fluid managementOther

    Normosol or equivalent solution 0.5 ml/kg/fasted hour IV (8am to time of induction) during induction of Anesthesia. Maintenance IV Normosol or equivalent solution at 6 ml/kg/operative hour. Blood loss to be replaced volume: volume with colloid until transfusion criteria met. Additional fluid boluses of 100ml Normosol or equivalent solution or bolus pressors (phenylephrine 40mcg or ephedrine 5mg) at the discretion of the Anesthesiologist to maintain patient hemodynamic stability.

  • Liberal perioperative fluid managementOther

    Normosol or equivalent solution 0.5 ml/kg/fasted hr IV (8am to time of induction) of Anesthesia. Maintenance IV Normosol or equiv solution at 6 ml/kg/oper hr. At randomiz to the Liberal arm in the OR, an addit bolus of Normosol or equiv solution 1.5 ml/kg/fasted hr IV (8am to time of induction) will be given to bring the total to Normosol or equiv solution 2ml/kg/fasted hr IV (8am to time of induction). Pt will get an addit bolus of Normosol or equivalent solution 6ml/kg/oper hr. Maintenance IV Normosol or equivalent solution will then commence at 12ml/kg/operative hr with maximum of 1000 ml/operative hr. Blood loss replaced volume: with colloid, until transfusion criteria met (Additional fluid boluses of 100ml Normosol or equivalent solution or bolus pressors (phenylephrine 40mcg or ephedrine 5mg) used at the discretion of the Anes to maintain pt hemodynamic stability. Addit fluid boluses of 250ml Normosol or equivalent solution for urine output less than 1ml/kg for 2 hrs.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
pts undergoing pancreatic resection Restrictive armActive comparatorAll patients will receive Normosol or equivalent solution, 0.5 ml/kg/fasted hour IV (approximately from 8am to time of induction) during induction of anesthesia. All patients will then receive maintenance fluids consisting of Normosol or equivalent solution at 6 ml/kg/operative hour. After randomization occurs, those patients randomized to the Restricted Arm will continue to receive Normosol or equivalent solution at 6ml/kg/operative hour.
Receives: Other: restrictive perioperative fluid management
pts undergoing pancreatic resection Liberal armActive comparatorAll patients will receive Normosol or equivalent solution, 0.5 ml/kg/fasted hour IV (approximately from midnight to time of induction) during induction of anesthesia. All patients will then receive maintenance fluids consisting of Normosol or equivalent solution at 6 ml/kg/operative hour. Those patients randomized to the Liberal Arm will receive an additional Normosol bolus or equivalent solution equal to (another) 1.5 ml/kg/fasted hour IV (to bring the total to 2 ml/kg/fasted hour) plus an additional bolus of Normosol or equivalent solution 6ml/kg/operative hour to bring the hourly rate to 12ml/kg/operative hour with a maximum of 1000 ml/operative hour.
Receives: Other: Liberal perioperative fluid management

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine if restrictive perioperative fluid management results in fewer complications, morbidity and decreased length of stay in patients undergoing pancreatic resection, compared to liberal fluid management.

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Determine if restrictive perioperative fluid management, comp to liberal periop fluid management, decreases delayed gastric emptying, length of stay (LOS) & the incidence of other, less frequent morbidity in adult patients getting pancreatic resection.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing restrictive perioperative fluid management and Liberal perioperative fluid management in people with Pancreatic Cancer, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2019. 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 United States. 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?

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?

To determine if restrictive perioperative fluid management results in fewer complications, morbidity and decreased length of stay in patients undergoing pancreatic resection, compared to liberal fluid management. (time frame: 3 years). 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 25 Sep 2019.
