About this study

Official title: The Effect of Esophageal Doppler Guided Goal-directed Hemodynamic Therapy

Prospective randomized clinical trial Compare the goal-directed fluid therapy using esophageal Doppler and classic fluid therapy

Read the detailed description

Goal directed fluid therapy becomes issue for enhanced recovery after surgery. In goal directed therapy, dynamic parameters, like stroke volume and cardiac output, is important. Esophageal Doppler is one of device which provides dymanic parameters.

In severe trauma cases, the effect of goal directed therapy is not known yet. So the aim of this study is comparing the results of goal directed therapy using esophageal Doppler and conventional fluid therapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Lactate

    Unit is mmol/L Inclusion criteria is initial lactate > 2mmol/L. Whole hospital use same device and unit to measure lactate. In this study, POCT lactate won't be used.

    After surgical resuscitation, lactate level is independent predictor of survival, because it represents tissue oxygenation.

    Measured: Immediate postoperative (=initial ICU admission)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) score

    ICU patient scoring system, score from 0 to 71, higher scores correspond to more severe disease and a higher risk of death

    Measured: Immediate postoperative

  2. Creatinine

    Kidney function

    Measured: Immediate postop

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Trauma, run by Ajou University School of Medicine at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 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 28 Oct 2019. 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 South Korea. 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?

Lactate (time frame: Immediate postoperative (=initial ICU admission)). 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 28 Oct 2019.
