Trial summary

Diastolic dysfunction is an important cause of hemodynamic instability in the perioperative field.Therefore this study aims to investigate the influence of existing diastolic dysfunction or deterioration of diastolic function on hemodynamic stability during induction of anesthesia and postoperative complications.

About this study

Official title: Influence of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function on Hemodynamic Stability During Anesthesia Induction and on Postoperative Complications

Diastolic dysfunction is an important cause of hemodynamic instability in the perioperative field.Therefore this study aims to investigate the influence of existing diastolic dysfunction or deterioration of diastolic function on hemodynamic stability during induction of anesthesia and postoperative complications. The impact of different anesthetics on diastolic function is investigated.

Read the detailed description

In this prospective observational study two cohorts of patients with different anesthesia regimes are investigated. Anesthesia is maintained with sevoflurane or propofol. Before induction of anesthesia a transthoracic echocardiography is performed to examine systolic and diastolic function. Immediately after induction, during maintenance and after completion of anesthesia any changes of diastolic function are examined with transthoracic echocardiography. All anesthetic medications, fluids, vasoactive medications and catecholamines are registered.

Being tested
Sevoflurane, Propofol

What is being measured

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

  1. Norepinephrine

    Cumulative dose of norepinephrine (adjusted for body weight) during the first 30 minutes after induction of anesthesia

    Measured: 30 minutes after induction of anesthesia

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. e'

    Change of the echocardiographic tissue doppler parameter e' after induction of anesthesia

    Measured: Directly after induction of anesthesia

  2. E / e'

    Change of the echocardiographic index of transmitral flow and tissue doppler after induction of anesthesia

    Measured: Directly after induction of anesthesia

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction, run by Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf at 1 site in Germany.

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 6 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 12 Mar 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 Germany. 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?

Norepinephrine (time frame: 30 minutes after induction of anesthesia). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03522194, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Mar 2019.
