Trial summary

The purpose of this case series is to evaluate the performance of a novel closed-loop (automated) vasopressor administration system that delivers norepinephrine using feedback from standard operating room hemodynamic monitoring (EV1000 monitoring device, Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, USA).

About this study

Official title: Tight Systolic Arterial Pressure Control Using a Closed-loop System for Vasopressor Infusion in Patients Undergoing High-risk Abdominal Surgery: A Proof-of-Concept Study

The purpose of this case series is to evaluate the performance of a novel closed-loop (automated) vasopressor administration system that delivers norepinephrine using feedback from standard operating room hemodynamic monitoring (EV1000 monitoring device, Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, USA).

Read the detailed description

In this case series, the investigators will report the percentage of case time in hypotension (defined as systolic arterial pressure (SAP) < 117mmHg). The target mean arterial pressure (MAP) will be set at a SAP of 130mmHg in all patients. Definition of Hypotension is target SAP - 10% (130mmHg - 13 mmHg = 117 mmHg). We will use the same SAP target in all patients even if we used a modified definition of hypotension from the study of Futier and colleagues ( JAMA 2017). We won't use a individualized SAP for each patient but the same SAP target in all patients.

The investigators want to demonstrate that the closed-loop system can prevent hypotension at this specific set point.

The Investigators have shown the system works well based on a target MAP but not yet using a target of SAP.

The investigators will test the system in a pilot study of 13 patients undergoing High-risk abdominal surgery which require the placement of a arterial catheter, the optimization of fluid therapy and a tight SAP control.

Participants will receive standard patient care in that in no way will their anesthetic or surgical procedure will be altered as part of the study, with the exception of vasopressor administration ( automatically delivery instead of manually adjustments)

Fluids will be given as goal directed fluid therapy in order to maintain stroke volume variation below 13% (hospital guidelines).

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of case Time in hypotension (SAP <117 mmHg)

    The primary outcome will be the percentage of case time in predefined SAP target (SAP of 130 mmHg -10 % = 117 mmHg)

    Measured: At postoperative day 1

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Amount of vasopressors received

    Amount of vasopressors received (norepinephrine)

    Measured: At postoperative day 1

  2. Number of vasopressors infusion rate modifications

    Number of vasopressors infusion rate modifications

    Measured: At postoperative day 1

  3. Percentage of case time with a MAP < 65 mmHg

    Percentage of case time with a MAP < 65 mmHg

    Measured: At postoperative day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Closed-loop vasopressor in people with Cardiovascular Diseases, run by Erasme University Hospital at 1 site in Belgium.

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 3 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 15 Mar 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 Belgium. 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?

Percentage of case Time in hypotension (SAP <117 mmHg) (time frame: At postoperative day 1). 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 15 Mar 2021.
