About this study

Official title: Intravenous Fluid Administration in Patients Undergoing Colonoscopy: Double Blind, Randomised Clinical Trial of Underlying Acid-base Derangement

The purpose of this study is to determine whether fluid administration in patients undergoing colonoscopy should affect acid-base disorder in term of the strong ion differences.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, double-blinded, randomized control trial. The study enrolls 90 consecutive outpatients, well-prepared bowel, scheduled to undergo routine colonoscopy for screening, surveillance, or diagnosis of colorectal diseases. At the outpatient clinic, the co-researcher invites patients who meet the inclusion criteria to join the study. The process of the project is explained to the interested patients in details before an informed consent is obtained and the first blood sample is conducted.

On the day of colonoscopy, all participants are randomized equally into three groups: Normal saline solution (NSS, n = 30) as control group, lactated Ringer's solution (LRS, n = 30) and acetated Ringer's solution (ARS, n = 30) as treatment groups. The second blood sample is obtained from patients via 20-gauge needle in either forearm immediately before an allocated intravenous (IV) fluid administered on the same site. The volume of fluid is calculated by means of Holliday and Segar formula.

The colonoscopy under total intravenous anesthesia is performed between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. At the end of colonoscopy, the patients spontaneously wake up in the recovery room. After they gain conscious and all vital signs are stable; the intravenous fluid is off and the third blood sample is taken in the other forearm. After completion of the procedure, the patient is advised to follow the discharge instructions.

What participants receive

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

  • Lactated Ringer's solutionDrug

    Also called LRS

    Lactated Ringer's solution is administered. The volume of fluid administration is calculated by means of Holliday and Segar formula.

  • Normal saline solutionDrug

    Also called NSS

    Normal saline solution is administered. The volume of fluid administration is calculated by means of Holliday and Segar formula.

  • Acetate Ringer's solutionDrug

    Also called ARS

    Acetate Ringer's solution is administered. The volume of fluid administration is calculated by means of Holliday and Segar formula.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Patients with Acid-base disorder as a Measure of Strong Ion Difference.

    The strong ion difference (SID) is calculated by means of the differences between the positively and negatively charged strong ions in plasma. The strong ion difference affected by bowel preparation and intravenous fluid administration during colonoscopy.

    Measured: 3 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Lactated Ringer's solution, Normal saline solution and Acetate Ringer's solution in people with Colonoscopy and Bowel Preparation, run by Mahidol University.

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 4 inclusion and 11 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Number of Patients with Acid-base disorder as a Measure of Strong Ion Difference. (time frame: 3 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 Mar 2016.
