What participants receive

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

  • Plasmalyte A ViafloOther

    Fluid therapy to be given according to the principle of 4-2-1 (4 ml of crystalloid fluid for each of the first 10 kg of weight (0-10 kg), 2 ml of crystalloid fluid for each of the second 10 kg of weight (11-20 kg) and 1 ml of crystalloid fluid for each kg of weight over 20.

PatientOtherOne-arm study, where all patients are given the same standard fluidotherapy and anesthetic conditions to compare measures of Aortic VTI before and after the IV fluid.
Receives: Other: Plasmalyte A Viaflo

What is being measured

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

  1. Aortic VTI change

    Transthoracic echocardiography measures of the Time-Speed Interval in the aortic valve before fluid therapy (baseline) and after fluid therapy (20 ml/kg in 15 minutes).

    Measured: From baseline analysis (t=5 min after anesthesia induction), to the end of fluid therapy (t=20 min).

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Blood pressure change

    Analysis of the variation of Mean Arterial Blood pressure with fluid therapy

    Measured: From baseline analysis (t=5 min after anesthesia induction), to the end of fluid therapy (t=20 min).

  2. Legs-up maneuver

    Analysis of the variation of Mean Arterial Blood pressure with the legs up maneuver

    Measured: From baseline analysis (t=5 min after anesthesia induction), to the end of legs-up maneuver (t = +/- 10 min).

  3. Post-operative nausea and vomiting

    Comparisson of the incidence of post-operative nausea and vomiting in the fluid respondeurs group vs non respondeurs.

    Measured: From arrival at PACU (end of surgery) until discharge from PACU (tipically after 1 to 2 hours after the arrival to the PACU)

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

Contact Ionut Tabolcea, MD (0032488720046, ionutztb@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Aortic VTI change (time frame: From baseline analysis (t=5 min after anesthesia induction), to the end of fluid therapy (t=20 min).). 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 NCT03599973, which also lists 8 linked publications.

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.
