About this study

Official title: Comparison of Plasmalyte A, Normal Saline and Ringer Lactate as Intraoperative Fluids in Patients Undergoing Renal Transplantation.

Fluid management being an important component of surgery becomes more challenging for an anesthesiologist in case of renal transplant. Ischemia-reperfusion injury is an inevitable consequence of kidney transplantation, leading to metabolic acidosis .Normal saline (NS; 0.9% NaCl) is administered during kidney transplantation to avoid the risk of hyperkalemia associated with potassium-containing fluids. Plasmalyte is another fluid which can be used and probably will lead to better metabolic profile in these group of patients.The primary objective of this study will be to compare the effects of using normal saline (NS), Ringer lactate and Plasmalyte as intravenous fluids on acid-base balance and electrolytes during living donor kidney transplantation. Secondary outcomes assessed will be the effect on renal function.

Being tested
intravenous fluid administration WITH NORMAL SALINE, PLASMALYTE A, OR RINGER LACTATE

What participants receive

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

  • intravenous fluid administration WITH NORMAL SALINE, PLASMALYTE A, OR RINGER LACTATEDrug

    intravenous fluid to be used for maintainance and replacement during renal transplant surgery will be normal saline, ringer lactate or plasmalyte A depending on the arm of intervention

Study groups in NCT03115060
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
normal salineExperimentalIntravenous fluid used in these patients would be normal saline which would be given intravenously during intraoperative and postoperative period

Receives: Drug: intravenous fluid administration WITH NORMAL SALINE, PLASMALYTE A, OR RINGER LACTATE

What is being measured

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

  1. acid base balance, 4 readings intraoperaively to be taken using arterial blood sample of the patient

    pH, pCO2, pO2, HCO3,Base deficit, Na, K are the values normally measured in acid base analysis

    Measured: during the surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. serum creatinine on day 1, 2 and 7 of surgery

    This is a function of kidney measure and will tell about the success of Renal Transplant

    Measured: day 1, 2 and 7

  2. intraoperative hemodynamics in all patients

    Measured: intraoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing intravenous fluid administration WITH NORMAL SALINE, PLASMALYTE A, OR RINGER LACTATE in people with Acid-Base Balance Disorder, run by Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh at 1 site in India.

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 1 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 15 May 2017. 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 India. 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Tanvir samra, MD Anaesthesia (7087008799, drtanvirsamra@yahoo.co.in), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

acid base balance, 4 readings intraoperaively to be taken using arterial blood sample of the patient (time frame: during the surgery). 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 May 2017.
