Trial summary

In operating theater, one of the bigger purpose of anesthetist-resuscitator is to optimize vascular filling (VF) because of a failure or an excess of filling is deleterious for the patient. Several studies have assessed the traditionnal VF based on the clinic and the VF guided by quantitative critereas. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Decrease of Post-operative Complications by SCVO2 Monitoring an Optimisation of Cardiac Flow : Multicentric Randomized Control in Single Blind Study

In operating theater, one of the bigger purpose of anesthetist-resuscitator is to optimize vascular filling (VF) because of a failure or an excess of filling is deleterious for the patient. Several studies have assessed the traditionnal VF based on the clinic and the VF guided by quantitative critereas. Thus studies have showed a decrease of morbidity and duration of patients' stay whose the VF was guided even on the long term. So, formal recommandations of experts (FRE) on the perioperative filling strategy of the SFAR ( Anesthesia and Resuscitation Francophone Society) advise to titrate the perioperative vascular filling of high risk patients guiding on a mesure of end-systolic volume (ESV). The inscrease of ESV answering to filling confirmed the VF realized is relevant and authorized its pursuite while the absence of an increase of the ESV after a filling test signifies the useless and deleterious character of this one. The optimization of perioperative hemodynamics consists in adapting the patient's cardiac output to his metabolic needs. ETO, Swan-Ganz: limit of its application to the routine. The central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) is simple and safe, the evaluation of the adjustment of O2 inputs compared to the needs. The industry has developed continuous monitoring systems by reflection spectrophotometry using optical fibers installed in the central venous pathways. In daily practice, the stricto sensu application of FRE leads to administering an VF up to the limit of the preload dependence without evaluating the adequacy of the cardiac output, which is not a physiological situation. This filling is therefore sometimes performed solely on the criteria of preload dependence while it is potentially deleterious for the patient. No study has compared a strategy based on the use of ScvO2 and preload dependence with current recommendations based solely on preload dependence. Our hypothesis is that the continuous monitoring of the ScvO2 in the superior cave territory in intraoperative would allow to detect the patients with an inadequacy of the cardiac output and thus to select the only ones requiring a vascular filling. This would reduce postoperative complications related to overfilling, without exposing the patient to episodes of tissue hypoperfusion.

What participants receive

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

  • ScvO2 Perioperative continue monitoringProcedure or surgery

    ScvO2 Perioperative continue monitoring with PreSep® system. If SvcO2 is less than 65% or decreases by more than 10% of its base value, the other parameters affecting ScvO2 (BIS (40-60% objective), Hb (objective> 8g / dL), SaO2 (objective> 94%)) are evaluated. If, after correcting for these parameters, the ScvO2 is not corrected, the preload-dependence parameters are evaluated (variation of the pulsed pressure) to guide the vascular filling: VF of 250 mL of crystalloids if PPV> 13%, norepinephrine if PPV<9%, reassess if PPV between 9 and 13%.

    If VF or norepinephrine does not correct ScvO2 (> 65%), a measurement of arterial lactate is performed. If lactatemia is> 2 mmol / L, a positive inotrop is introduced after ETO if possible. If lactatemia is <2 mmol / L, a return to the evaluation phase of the parameters influencing ScvO2 is necessary.

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference of the CCI score at day 5 between patients of ScvO2 group and patient of control group.

    CCI score : Comprehensive Complication Index. Allow to integrate all the postoperative complications and their respectives severities. From 0 (No complication) to 100 (death of the patient)

    Measured: Day 5

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ScvO2 Perioperative continue monitoring in people with Cardiac Flow, run by Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille at 1 site in France.

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 5 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 5 Feb 2026. 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 France. 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?

Difference of the CCI score at day 5 between patients of ScvO2 group and patient of control group. (time frame: Day 5). 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 NCT03828565, 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 5 Feb 2026.
