What participants receive

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

  • Water administrationDietary supplement

    Also called Tap water

    patients undergo hip surgery after receiving 800 ml water by mouth in the morning before the surgery.

  • carbohydrate drinkDietary supplement

    Also called PreOp Nutricia ( Nutricia Nordic AB)

    800 ml carbohydrate drink by mouth the evening before surgery and 400 ml carbohydrate drink by mouth 2 hours before surgery

  • Fasting.Behavioural

    The patient is fasting from midnight before the surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Insulin Sensitivity (Percent)

    Insulin sensitivity (micro-mol per kg per minute glucose uptake) was calculated based on an intravenous glucose tolerance test (Theor Biol Med Model 2011, 8: 12) on the day before surgery. The percent change was taken as (day after - day before) / day before

    Measured: Day before surgery (approximately 3 PM) and in the morning after surgery (approx. 7.30 AM).

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Muscle Catabolism

    Assessed by the ratio of 3-methylhistidine/creatinine in excreted urine (unit: mmol/mmol).This is an amino acid unique to muscle that does not undergo intermediary metabolism, meaning that its urinary excretion is an index of the degree of muscle catabolism.

    Measured: From the morning after surgery (07.30) up to the morning two days after sthe surgery (07.30)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Water administration, carbohydrate drink and Fasting. in people with Hip Surgery Corrective, run by Sodertalje Hospital at 1 site in Sweden.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Nov 2016. 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 Sweden. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Dec 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Change in Insulin Sensitivity (Percent) (time frame: Day before surgery (approximately 3 PM) and in the morning after surgery (approx. 7.30 AM).). 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 NCT01211184, 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 25 Nov 2016.
