Read the detailed description

Perioperative fluid management is crucial for patients' outcome. Series of studies have indicated that adequate fluid management optimizes the cardiac out put, improves tissue perfusion, thus decrease the risk of postoperative morbidity. Muller et al developed a "Mini-fluid challenge method " to predict fluid responsiveness and the efficacy. Fluid status and proper perfusion condition in patients undergo thoracic surgery are especially crucial for the vulnerability of lung toward fluid overload. To the best of our knowledge, the efficacy of the test was not discussed in the perioperative care in video assisted thoracic surgery. The investigators design the study to investigate the effectiveness of mini-fluid challenge test in video assisted thoracic surgery.

What participants receive

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

  • Crystalloid SolutionsDrug

    Mini-fluid challenge with crystalloid 250 ml will be given to patients first. After observation of hemodynamic parameters, further fluid challenge will be given for response observation.

Study groups in NCT03731377
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Intubated groupExperimentalPatient in this group will receive general anesthesia with endotracheal tube intubation to perform one lung ventilation. Patient will be paralyzed and controlled ventilation will be implied.
Receives: Drug: Crystalloid Solutions
Non-intubated groupExperimentalPatient in this group will receive general anesthesia with laryngeal mask insertion. Patients in this group will not be paralyzed and keep spontaneous breathing to maintain one lung ventilation.
Receives: Drug: Crystalloid Solutions

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of blood pressure after fluid loading

    Interpretate the correlation of mini-fluid challenge and conventional fluid challenge

    Measured: 3 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change of cardiac index after fluid loading

    Interpretate the correlation of mini-fluid challenge and conventional fluid challenge

    Measured: 3 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Crystalloid Solutions in people with Mini-fluid Challenge in Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Oct 2020. 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 Taiwan. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Tzu Jung Wei (+886972653416, sa46222@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change of blood pressure after fluid loading (time frame: 3 hours). 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 NCT03731377, which also lists 4 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.

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 8 Oct 2020.
