About this study

Official title: Prospective, Monocentric Pilot Study for the Validation of Stroke Volume by Use of NexFin in Comparison to Different Hemodynamic Monitoring Procedures (Picco2, FloTrac and TEE)

Main hypothesis: there is no difference between stroke volume measurements recorded by a new noninvasive finger cuff system (NexFin) and invasive hemodynamic monitoring systems as Picco2-system, FloTrac and transesophageal echocardiography

Read the detailed description

In high risc patients undergoing orthopedic surgery an extended cardiopulmonary observation improves patients safety and postoperative outcome. Therefore invasive procedures as Picco2-system, FloTrac and transesophageal echocardiography (tee) have the advantage to measure or calculate stroke volume. Disadvantage of this treatments is the need for a vascular access with all its complications.

In this study the stroke volume measured by a new noninvasive finger cuff system (NexFin) should be validated in comparison to invasive hemodynamic monitoring systems as Picco2-system, FloTrac and tee.

What is being measured

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

  1. stroke volume

    Measured: preinduction, 3 and 15 minutes after induction, before and after a volume challenge, 30 minutes after induction, end of surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. mean arterial pressure

    Measured: preinduction, 3 and 15 minutes after induction, before and after volume challenge, 30 minutes after induction, end of surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing NexFin in people with Stroke Volume and Mean Arterial Pressure, 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 4 inclusion and 12 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 12 Aug 2013. 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.

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?

stroke volume (time frame: preinduction, 3 and 15 minutes after induction, before and after a volume challenge, 30 minutes after induction, end of surgery). 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 12 Aug 2013.
