About this study

Official title: Effect of Colloid Versus Crystalloid on Coagulation in Elective Urological Surgery. A Randomised Clinical Study

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of thin fluid with starch versus thin fluid without starch on coagulation in elective surgery when the patient is normovolæmic during operation.

Read the detailed description

The primary goal is to register coagulation on basis of blood samples inclusive thromboelastography results.

The secondary goal is to register blood loss and use of blood products during operation.

The trial concerns 40 patients.

Being tested
Lactated Ringer, Hydroxyethylstarch
Medical subject headings
Hemostatic Disorders

What participants receive

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

  • Lactated RingerDrug

    When normovolæmic status of the patient is secured, 35 ml/kg of the allocated fluid is infused during the operation (estimated time for this type of operation is 180 minutes), however max. 3500 ml.Lactated Ringer is the interventional medication.

  • HydroxyethylstarchDrug

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Lactated Ringer and Hydroxyethylstarch in people with Disorders of Coagulation, run by K. C. Rasmussen.

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 10 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 11 Dec 2013. 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. 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?

Estimate coagulation on basis of bloodsamples (time frame: 6 months). 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 11 Dec 2013.
