About this study

Official title: Non-invasive Assessment of Fluid Requirement During Surgery: a Comparison of Oesophageal Doppler and Pleth Variability Index

Targeting the amount of fluid given to measurements of the patients own fluid status during major abdominal surgery has been linked with improved speed of recovery of gut function and reduced length of hospital stay, mortality and complications.

Pleth variability index (PVI) offers a noninvasive, risk and pain free alternative to more invasive forms of monitoring to direct how much fluid to give.

Read more

The study aims primarily to measure and compare how much fluid is given when guided by PVI compared to the established technique; oesophageal doppler during major abdominal surgery.

The study will compare 40 patients undergoing major elective abdominal surgery. Patients will receive intraoperative fluid guided by either oesophageal doppler or PVI. Secondarily, the study will examine biochemical markers, length of hospital stay and how frequently complications occur

Being tested
Doppler, PVI'

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Doppler and PVI' in people with Colorectal Surgery and Major Abdominal Surgery, run by York Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 20 May 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 United Kingdom. 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?

Difference between fluid volumes administered in the intra-operative period (time frame: End of operation). 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 20 May 2014.
