Trial summary

Goal-directed therapy (GDT) has been applied to various clinical settings and has been widely researched recently as a method for perioperative management of patients. Radical cystectomy is a complex surgical procedure in which the bladder is removed, followed by urinary diversion. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Goal-directed Hemodynamic Therapy on Clinical Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Radical Cystectomy: : A Randomized Controlled Trial

Goal-directed therapy (GDT) has been applied to various clinical settings and has been widely researched recently as a method for perioperative management of patients. Radical cystectomy is a complex surgical procedure in which the bladder is removed, followed by urinary diversion. It is an extensive and time-consuming intervention and has high probability of fluid imbalance and bleeding during surgery. We hypothesized that the application of GDT in these patients would improve clinical postoperative outcomes. Therefore, we will attempt to evaluate improvement of postoperative outcomes after applying GDT protocol based on changes in stroke volume index, cardiac index and mean arterial pressure in radical cystectomy.

What participants receive

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

  • Goal-directed therapyOther

    Also called GDT

    The patients in GDT group will receive intravenous crystalloid fluid or vasopressor or inotropic agent according to the goal-directed therapy protocol utilizing FloTrac / EV1000 clinical platform (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA, USA).

    After induction of anesthesia, the baseline stroke volume index (SVI) is measured and then 200-250 ml of crystalloid is administered over 5-10 minutes. If SVI increase by ≥10%, 200-250 ml of crystalloid is given repeatedly until the increase in SVI <10%. If SVI does not increase by ≥10% and there is no decrease in mean arterial pressure (MAP), revaluate SVI every 10 minutes. Despite an increase in SVI of <10% after fluid challenge, if a decrease in MAP is accompanied by cardiac index (CI) ≤ 2.5 L/min/m2, dobutamine is administered by continuous infusion. If there is a decrease in MAP but no decrease in CI, start low dose norepinephrine continuous infusion.

What is being measured

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

  1. A composite of postoperative complications

    Total incidence of postoperative complications including gastrointestinal complications, complications of infections, wound complications, cardiac events, thromboembolic complications, genitourinary complications, neurological complications based on the Clavien-Dindo classification for radical cystectomy.

    Measured: through the hospitalization period, an average of 2 weeks

Secondary outcomes (7)

    Gastrointestinal complications include ileus, constipation, gastric ulcer, anastomic bowel leak according to the Clavien-Dindo classification for radical cystectomy.

    Measured: through the hospitalization period, an average of 2 weeks

  2. The incidence of postoperative complications of infections

    Complications of infections include urinary tract infection, sepsis, pneumonia, wound infection according to the Clavien-Dindo classification for radical cystectomy.

    Measured: through the hospitalization period, an average of 2 weeks

  3. The incidence of postoperative wound complications

    Wound Complications mean wound dehiscence diagnosed clinically and requiring resuturing, according to the Clavien-Dindo classification for radical cystectomy.

    Measured: through the hospitalization period, an average of 2 weeks

  4. The incidence of postoperative cardiac events

    Cardiac events include myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, congestive heart failure, pulmonary edema and transient brain natriuretic peptide increase (serum brain natriuretic peptide values 100-500 pg/ml) according to the Clavien-Dindo classification for radical cystectomy.

    Measured: through the hospitalization period, an average of 2 weeks

  5. The incidence of postoperative thromboembolic complications

    Thromboembolic complication means pulmonary embolism evidenced by spiral computerized tomography scanning according to the Clavien-Dindo classification for radical cystectomy.

    Measured: through the hospitalization period, an average of 2 weeks

  6. The incidence of postoperative genitourinary complications

    Genitourinary complications include renal dysfunction, renal failure, urinary leakage according to the Clavien-Dindo classification for radical cystectomy.

    Measured: through the hospitalization period, an average of 2 weeks

  7. The incidence of postoperative neurological complications

    Neurological complications mean presence of a de novo focal deficit, confusion/delirium according to the Clavien-Dindo classification for radical cystectomy.

    Measured: through the hospitalization period, an average of 2 weeks
