About this study

Official title: Haemodynamic Response to General Anaesthesia Induction in Elective Orthopaedic Surgery Patients Using Non-invasive Cardiovascular Monitoring

Continuous cardiovascular monitoring as part of management of high-risk surgical patients is widely practiced, however its role in low-risk surgical patients is unclear. Detailed monitoring of cardiovascular parameters from pre-induction stage allows clinicians to individualise anaesthetic management in the perioperative period. The investigators' aim was to investigate haemodynamic and Bispectral Index (BIS) changes in healthy patients undergoing surgery following induction of anaesthesia with propofol using a continuous non-invasive blood pressure device (LiDCOrapid™).

Read the detailed description

Recruitment Orthopaedic surgical teams, anaesthetists and theatre staff were made aware of the study that was being conducted at the investigators' institution. Prospective subjects that met the inclusion criteria were identified from the hospital operating theatre's database two weeks prior to surgery. A letter, which contained the study's objectives and methods, was sent out to all patients. Subsequently, a telephone call was made to patients one week before surgery to clarify any queries they had. Consent was obtained on the morning of surgery. All study participants provided written informed consent.

Peri-operative monitoring LiDCO™ CNAP and BIS monitoring were attached prior to induction of anaesthesia in the anaesthetic room of the operating theatre. A standardised anaesthetic technique was used for every participant, consisting of propofol induction, sevoflurane maintenance to a target BIS (40-60) and opioid analgesia with fentanyl. Participants underwent positive pressure ventilation to a tidal volume of 8ml/kg.

Measurements of the following variables were taken continuously from pre-induction to time of extubation: heart rate, mean arterial blood pressure, stroke volume, cardiac output, systemic vascular resistance and BIS. Data recorded up to 3 minutes following propofol injection was analysed to capture the post-induction period. Further measurements were taken in recovery room. The total quantity and type of fluids, drugs administered, time of tourniquet application and removal (if performed), and the duration of the operation were recorded.

    LiDCO rapid™ CNAP monitoring allows through analysis of the arterial blood pressure trace to acquire information about CO, HR variability, SVR, SV and BIS during general anaesthesia.

Standard CareNo interventionWe will compare the standard monitored group of patients with the LiDCO rapid™ monitored group. The control group will compose of patients supervised in a standard way.
LiDCO rapid™ CNAP monitoringExperimentalYoung, healthy adult patients (ASA I and II) undergoing elective orthopaedic surgery under general anaesthesia will be included in to this study. We will compare the standard monitored group of patients with the LiDCO rapid™ monitored group. We will use in the LiDCO rapid™ CNAP monitoring group, the continuous real time haemodynamic monitoring through non-invasive arterial pressure waveform. The monitor LiDCO rapid™ CNAP permits, through analysis the arterial blood pressure trace, to acquire information about CO, SVR, HR variability, SV and BIS.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing LiDCO rapid™ CNAP monitoring in people with Hypotension, run by Chelsea and Westminster NHS Foundation Trust.

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 1 inclusion and 3 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 15 Jul 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?

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?

Cardiac output (mls blood/ minute) (time frame: From induction up to 3 minutes). 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 15 Jul 2016.
