Trial summary

The fluid and electrolyte imbalance (FEI) is pretty common encountered during the clinical process of patients suffered sellar lesions. Moreover, if the patients are undergone the surgery for remove the lesion, FEI happens in all cases without exception. Read more about this study

About this study

The fluid and electrolyte imbalance (FEI) is pretty common encountered during the clinical process of patients suffered sellar lesions. Moreover, if the patients are undergone the surgery for remove the lesion, FEI happens in all cases without exception. Hypo- and hyper-natremia is the most common electrolyte disorder, which is directly correlated to the patients' outcome. However, in clinical works, different sellar diseases cause variant features of FEI. For example, after the surgery of craniopharyngioma, the hyponatremia and hypernatremia always happen alternatively even without any precursor manifestation. Under this situation, it is quite difficult for fluid supplement. In contrast, the severe FEI will cause poor outcome, even death. So it is necessary to systematically collect and review the clinical data of sellar lesions. Through the analysis of variant FEI patterns of sellar diseases, more precise strategy for clinical fluid replacement will be proposed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of The Patients Suffered With Sellar Diseases and The Fluid and Electrolyte Imbalance Happened After Surgery, run by Southern Medical University, China at 1 site in China.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 19 Mar 2020. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yuntao Lu, PI (+86-13632101002, lllu2000yun@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Blood sodium (time frame: 24 hours). 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 19 Mar 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
