About this study

Official title: Impact of a Balanced Infusion Solution Compound of 50% Crystalloid and 50% Colloid Versus an Unbalanced Infusion Solution of 100% Crystalloid Within a Goal-directed Hemodynamic Protocol on Acid-base Balance

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the administration of a compound of balanced infusion solutions including 50% crystalloid and 50% colloid has a positive impact on acid-base balance in elective hip replacement surgery. The application of the study medication will be carried out through a goal-directed intraoperative therapy by transoesophageal doppler.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Infusion TherapyDrug

    Based on changes of stroke volume measured by transoesophageal doppler patients during elective hip surgery will achieve either a unbalanced infusion solution, maximum dose of 100 ml/kg BW, or a compound of balanced infusion solution including 50% crystalloid and 50% colloid, each: maximum dose of 50 ml/kg BW. The study medication will be administered only during surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Standard Base Excess

    After administration of 2 litres of study medication. In recovery room. On general ward.

    Measured: up to 2 days

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. SID (strong ion difference)

    Change of the SID (strong ion difference) according to the stewart-approach of evalutation acid-base-dysbalances

    Measured: up to 2 days

  2. Hemodynamic Stability

    Doses and duration of therapy with catecholamins, number and duration of hypotensive episodes

    Measured: up to 6 days

  3. Fluid Loss of Drainage

    The quantity of fluids per day losing by drainage during the first three days after surgery

    Measured: up to 6 days

  4. Discharge Criteria, Length of Hospital Stay

    Time until fullfilling the hospital discharge criteria (measured by the postanesthesia discharge scoring system (PADSS)), and length of hospital stay

    Measured: 5 days up to hospital discharge

  5. Organ Function/Dysfunction

    (Cumulative) frequency of postoperative organ dysfunctions (cerebral, cardiac, pulmonary, renal, gastrointestinal)

    Measured: up to 6 days

  6. Incidence of Infections

    Perioperative Incidence of infections (according to the Centers of Disease and Prevention (CDC))

    Measured: up to 5 days

  7. Pain

    Pain of the patient measured by NAS (Numeric analogue scale), VAS (Visual analogue scale), NRS (Numeric rating scale) and BPS (Behavioral pain scale)

    Measured: up to 6 days

  8. Incidence of Delirium

    Incidence of delirium measured accordingly by DSM IV (Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders criteria for delirium), Nu-DESC (Nursing delirium screening scale), DDS (Delirium detection score), CAM (Confusion assessment method), CAM-ICU (Confusion assessment method for the ICU), DRS (Delirium rating scale) and ICDSC (Intensive care delirium screening checklist).

    Measured: up to 6 days

  9. Incidence of Postoperative Cognitive Deficit (POCD)

    Measurement of cognitive function by 5 tests out of CANTAB (Cambridge neuropsychological test automated battery) modeled by the ISPOCD1 study (International study of post-operative cognitive dysfunction), Stroop colour word test(SCWT) and verbal learning test(VLT)

    Measured: up to 90 days after surgery

  10. Mobilisation

    Duration and type of mobilisation

    Measured: up to 6 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Infusion Therapy in people with Hemodynamic Instability, run by Charite University, Berlin, Germany 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 2 inclusion and 27 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 16 Nov 2011. 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 Germany. 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?

Standard Base Excess (time frame: up to 2 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 16 Nov 2011.
