Trial summary

The study is going to be a single-centre prospective randomized trial. Patients will be randomly allocated to either control group (anesthetist-directed fluid therapy) or goal directed fluid therapy group, in which fluid therapy was guided by stoke volume (SV) algorithm with the use of Nexfin monitor.

About this study

The study is going to be a single-centre prospective randomized trial. Patients will be randomly allocated to either control group (anesthetist-directed fluid therapy) or goal directed fluid therapy group, in which fluid therapy was guided by stoke volume (SV) algorithm with the use of Nexfin monitor. Primary outcome measures were the time to hospital discharge since surgery and the occurence of complications developed during the postoperative period. Secondary outcomes included the incidence of intraoperative hypotensive episodes (with MAP<65mmHg) in both groups and the requirement of vasoactive drugs to support blood pressure

Read the detailed description

The study is going to be a single-centre prospective randomized trial in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery under spinal anesthesia.

Patients will be randomly allocated to either control group (anesthetist-directed fluid therapy) or goal directed fluid therapy group, in which fluid therapy was guided by stoke volume (SV) algorithm with the use of Nexfin monitor.

In patients of the control group management of the hemodynamic status will be performed in the discretion of the attending anesthesiologist, with the aim of keeping mean arterial pressure (MAP) > 65mmHg. The type and amount of delivered fluids, and vasoactive or inotropic drugs will be recorded.

In Goal Directed Fluid Therapy group, fluid management will be guided by the Nexfin monitor, based on stroke volume of the patient under continuous tracking. Baseline SV will be measured after the patients will be turned to left/right position (at which they are going to stay throughout the whole procedure) and before the implementation of regional anesthesia. Fluid challenges of 250 ml will be repeated until the SV fails to increase by 10%. At this point, preload is considered optimized and SV optimum iss defined. SV trigger is defined as SV opt - 10%. After obtaining these values, the anesthetic and surgical interventions could proceed. During surgery, N/S 250ml boluses will be administered when SV is below SV trigger. Inotropic drugs will be administered (dobutamine infusion at 0.2-10mcg/kg/min) if CO is below 3.5 L/min and vasopressors (phenylephrine bolus doses of 50-100mcg) if SV and CO are within the target range but MAP is below 65mmHg.

Primary outcome measures were the time to hospital discharge since surgery and the occurence of complications developed during the postoperative period. Secondary outcomes included the incidence of intraoperative hypotensive episodes (with MAP<65mmHg) in both groups and the requirement of vasoactive drugs to support blood pressure

Patients will be reassessed during the intraoperative period every 10 minutes . Except from the fluid boluses, all patients will be administered Ringer's lactate solution at an infusion rate of 2ml/kg/h.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing GDFM in people with Fluid Management and Haemodynamic Instability, run by Attikon Hospital at 2 sites in Greece.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jun 2020. 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 Greece. 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 CHRYSANTHI BATISTAKI (00302105832371, chrysabatistaki@yahoo.gr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

days of hospitalization after surgery (time frame: 30 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 9 Jun 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
