About this study

Fluid management during neurosurgery presents a special clinical agenda. Volume overload can have detrimental effects on intracranial pressure by increasing either cerebral blood volume or hydrostatically driven cerebral edema formation. On the other hand, an overt restrictive fluid strategy may risk hemodynamic instability.

Recently, dynamic fluid responsiveness parameters such as stroke volume variation (SVV) have been shown as a more precise parameters for fluid management including in neurosurgical patients. The threshold of SVV is reported about 10-15%. In this study, the investigators aim to using two SVV threshold to conduct intraoperative fluid therapy for craniotomy. Randomization will be generated by computer sampling. One of the two groups of patients will be managed with fluid bolus to keep intraoperative SVV <10% presenting the "normovolemia" group. The other group of patients will be kept intraoperative SVV <18% which is slightly above previously reported SVV threshold upper limit. The second group thus presents the "restrictive" group. Clinical outcomes, laboratory analysis including S100-B for neuronal damage and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) for acute kidney injury, will be compared.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Normovolemic group (keeping SVV<10% in supine; <15% in prone)Experimental1. The anesthesiologist will infuse Voluven (Fresenius Kabi, Bad Homburg, Germany) 250 ml if stroke volume variation is over 10% during the surgery to keep the normovolemia. 2. If total Voluven use is over 1500ml and then the anesthesiologist will infuse Saline 250 ml instead. 3. The maintenance of basal fluid, criteria to use inotropes (If cardiac index is below 2.5 l/min/m2 ) are the same standards in the both groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. serum S100B protein

    Measured: Changes from preoperative to postoperative day 2

  2. serum NGAL level

    Measured: Changes from preoperative to postoperative day 2.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Length of hospital stay

    Measured: participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 3 to 4 weeks

  2. Postoperative complications rate

    Measured: participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 3 to 4 weeks

  3. Total intraoperative intravenous fluid administrated

    Measured: During the surgical time, an expected average of 3 to 5 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intravenous colloid bolus with Voluven in people with Supratentorial Neoplasms and Brain Tumor, Primary, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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 3 Dec 2014. 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 Taiwan. 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 Chia-Chen Liu (+886-2-23123456 ext. 65521, a0918994038@yahoo.com.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

serum S100B protein (time frame: Changes from preoperative to postoperative day 2). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02113358, 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 3 Dec 2014.
