Comparison of Respiratory Variations of the Pulse Oximetry Plethysmographic Raw Signal and Pulse Pressure During Abdominal Surgery (PLETHYSMO)

An observational study of Abdominal Surgery, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon.

Trial summary

The waveform plethysmographic signal can be used to establish an index for predicting fluid responsiveness (∆POP: respiratory variation of the plethysmographic waveform of pulse oximetry). This index was validated in some studies and because of its non-invasiveness it seems very interesting in anesthesia. Read more about this study

About this study

The waveform plethysmographic signal can be used to establish an index for predicting fluid responsiveness (∆POP: respiratory variation of the plethysmographic waveform of pulse oximetry). This index was validated in some studies and because of its non-invasiveness it seems very interesting in anesthesia.

However, in a previous study the investigators evaluated the correlation between the results provided by this index (∆POP) and those of the reference index (∆PP: pulse pressure variation), and the obtained results were significantly lower than what had been previously described. In this study, the index was calculated from a recording of a filtered signal. This unavoidable application of a filter on anesthesia monitors could contribute to the discrepancy between the ∆POP and the ∆PP.

The realization of a new study, comparing ∆PP and ∆POP obtained from an unfiltered plethysmographic signal, should answer the ∆POP ability to be used in place of ∆PP.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Abdominal Surgery, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon.

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 6 inclusion and 11 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 29 Jun 2016. 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.

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?

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?

∆PP: pulse pressure variation (time frame: Day 0). 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?
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 29 Jun 2016.
