Trial summary

Preoperative fasting is considered to be refraining from taking meals for at least 6 hours and clear fluids for at least 2 hours before anesthesia. On the one hand, it is a procedure that reduces the risk of aspiration of chyme and the occurrence of Mendelson's syndrome, and on the other hand, it is one of the causes… Read more about this study

About this study

Preoperative fasting is considered to be refraining from taking meals for at least 6 hours and clear fluids for at least 2 hours before anesthesia. On the one hand, it is a procedure that reduces the risk of aspiration of chyme and the occurrence of Mendelson's syndrome, and on the other hand, it is one of the causes of water and carbohydrate disturbances in patients undergoing general anesthesia. Most of them experience some degree of dehydration in the preoperative period. It is associated with a worse prognosis. Due to the negative impact of fasting on homeostasis, as well as significant changes in heart rate in participants in the previous study, we decided to measure the hemodynamic parameters during fasting. The development of impedance cardiography techniques enables the measurement of these parameters by a non-invasive method.

After obtaining the participant's written consent to participate in the study, the first measurement of body weight, blood pressure using a non-invasive method and hemodynamic parameters using a non-invasive impedance cardiography method using the Niccomo ™ device (Medizinische Messtechnik GmbH) will be performed in the evening. The subject will then be asked to refrain from food for at least 10 hours and fluid for 6 hours before the next measurement. The next morning, another measurement will be made and the participant will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: subjects in the first group will be asked to refrain from eating and drinking for another 2 hours, while subjects in the second group per os will receive 400 milliliters of PreOp® (Nutricia ™ preparation intended for preoperative dietary management in surgical patients, containing carbohydrates and electrolytes). After another two hours, the third measurement of the tested parameters will be performed. The obtained results will be subjected to statistical analysis consisting in comparing the values of hemodynamic parameters between the studied groups at appropriate measurement points.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in cardiac index (CI)

    Cardiac index will be measured non-invasively with Niccomo™(Medizinische Messtechnik GmbH) device.

    Cardiac index will be measured in l/min/m^2 (liters per minute per square meter).

    Measured: Changes form baseline after 10 hours of fasting and after 2 hours of pre-op administration

  2. Changes in systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI)

    Systemic vascular resistance index will be measured non-invasively with Niccomo™(Medizinische Messtechnik GmbH) device.

    Systemic vascular resistance index will be measured in dyn*s*cm^-5*m^2 (dyne multiply by second multiply by centimeters to the power of minus 5 multiply by square meter)

    Measured: Changes form baseline after 10 hours of fasting and after 2 hours of pre-op administration

  3. Changes in stroke volume (SV)

    Stroke volume will be measured non-invasively with Niccomo™(Medizinische Messtechnik GmbH) device.

    Stroke volume will be measured in mL (milliliters).

    Measured: Changes form baseline after 10 hours of fasting and after 2 hours of pre-op administration

  4. Changes in heart rate (HR)

    Heart rate will be measured non-invasively with Niccomo™(Medizinische Messtechnik GmbH) device.

    Heart rate will be measured in 1/min (beats per minute).

    Measured: Changes form baseline after 10 hours of fasting and after 2 hours of pre-op administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nutricia Pre-op, 400 milliliters, per os in people with Perioperative Complication and Hemodynamic Instability, run by Medical University of Gdansk at 1 site in Poland.

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 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 8 Nov 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 Poland. 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?

Changes in cardiac index (CI) (time frame: Changes form baseline after 10 hours of fasting and after 2 hours of pre-op administration). The study lists 4 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 8 Nov 2021.
