About this study

Official title: Does Heart Failure Has Impact on Hemodynamic Stability During Anesthesia Induction

The study aim is to investigate whether preoperative heart failure has impact on hemodynamic stability during anesthesia induction by target controlled infusion of anesthesia (TCI) in non-cardiac, non-morbidly obese surgery.

Read the detailed description

40 individuals are enrolled to the study after signed informed consent at the day of surgery. The study participants are randomized (non-blinded) to preoperative fluid therapy (preoperative colloid fluid bolus at 6 ml/kg LBW, Gelofusine™, Fresenius Kabi AB, Sweden) or control (no preoperative fluids) before standardized TCI- induction of anesthesia. No other intravenous fluids before anesthesia induction.

Preoperative screening of biventricular systolic and diastolic function of the heart and level of venous return is implemented by transthoracic echocardiography approximately one hour before preoperative fluid therapy and anesthesia induction.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of blood pressure drops

    Blood pressure drop below mean arterial pressure at 65 mmHg during anesthesia induction. Non-invasive blood pressures (systolic, mean and diastolic) are measured 5 minutes before anesthesia induction and thereafter every 5 minutes post-induction .

    Measured: 20 minutes post anesthesia induction

  2. Incidence of severe blood pressure drops

    Blood pressure drop below mean arterial pressure at 55 mmHg during anesthesia induction. Non-invasive blood pressures (systolic, mean and diastolic) are measured 5 minutes before anesthesia induction and thereafter every 5 minutes post-induction.

    Measured: 20 minutes post anesthesia induction

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Venous return and hemodynamic stability

    Level of venous return impact on blood pressure drops during anesthesia below mean arterial pressure at 65 mmHg

    Measured: 20 minutes post anesthesia induction

  2. Systolic heart failure and hemodynamic stability

    Systolic heart failure impact on blood pressure drops during anesthesia below mean arterial pressure at 65 mmHg

    Measured: 20 minutes post anesthesia induction

  3. Diastolic dysfunction and hemodynamic stability

    Diastolic dysfunction impact on blood pressure drops during anesthesia below mean arterial pressure at 65 mmHg

    Measured: 20 minutes post anesthesia induction

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Preoperative colloid fluid bolus (Gelofusine) and Preoperative transthoracic echocardiography in people with Hemodynamic Instability and Anesthesia; Adverse Effect, run by Umeå University at 1 site in Sweden.

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 3 inclusion and 7 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 16 Dec 2021. 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 Sweden. 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?

Incidence of blood pressure drops (time frame: 20 minutes post anesthesia induction). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 16 Dec 2021.
