About this study

Official title: The Accuracy of Pleth Variability Index for Directed Fluid Optimization in Donors in Living Donor Liver Transplantation

In this Study we are trying to validate the accuracy of Plethogram variability index in predicting fluid responsiveness compared to pulse pressure variation in donors of liver transplantation

Read the detailed description

The liver transplantation program at Ain Shams University Hospitals relies on related living donors. Extra care during anesthetic management of the donor is warranted because of clear ethical considerations.

This prospective observational study was performed after obtaining approval from the ethical committee of the Ain Shams University FWA R 53/2018. Sample of 40 healthy ASA I or II donors' candidate for right lobe hepatectomy for living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) were included and consent was taken. Conventional form of anesthesia was induced with left radial arterial line inserted for invasive blood pressure monitoring, frequent blood gases and lactate sampling, and measuring the PPV, Right insertion of internal jugular vein line for CVP measurement. Fluid management in the form of ringer acetate 3-5 ml/kg/hr recruitment of the patients (Hypovolemic donors) depends on the presenting signs that led the anesthesiologist to decide if the patient's volume status was hypovolemic and in need for fluid replacement without presence of surgical mechanical compression on the IVC or Liver during dissection phase. These diagnostic criteria for volume assessment were heart rate (HR) more than 100 beats/min, systolic arterial blood pressure (SAP) less than 90 mmHg.

Assessment of Hemodynamics during periods of Hypovolemia After exclusion of any surgical mechanical compression, all enrolled hypovolemic patients had left radial arterial line measuring PPV using Drager Monitor and a pulse oximeter measuring PVI using Device Masimo. This device measures the perfusion index which is the indicator of the amplitude of the signal of PVI, confirmation of the wave signal should be obtained from any finger, fingers should be kept warm before test is done. Hypovolemic patients were given a fluid bolus in the form of ringer acetate 5 ml / Kg over 10 minutes. At the end of volume expansion another recorded PPV and PVI are done. Primary outcome was the correlation between PPV and PVI before and after fluid resuscitation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Fluid Response, run by Ain Shams University at 2 sites in Egypt.

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 1 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 4 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Egypt. 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 Amr M Hilal Abdou, MD (+201001479037, amr_hilal@med.asu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correlation between PPV and PVI before and after fluid resuscitation. (time frame: 6 hours). 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 4 Jun 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
