About this study

Official title: Effect of Colloid or Crystalloid Infusion Before Induction of General Anesthesia on Postoperative Complications Within 30 Days

Hypotension is associated with postoperative complications. Preoperative fluid infusion can effectively prevent post-induction hypotension of general anesthesia. Previous studies only focused on the hemodynamics after preoperative fluid infusion. Pre-operative fluid infusion can reduce the incidence of post-operative complications by preventing post-induction hypotension. The patients who is 18 years or older and undergo elective non-cardiac surgery with general anesthsia will be enrolled. The intervention is intravenous infusion of colloids or crytalloids before induction of general anesthesia. The primary outcome is the incidence of post-operative complications within 30 days.

Read the detailed description

Post-induction hypotension occurs in 30-40% of patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia. Perioperative hypotension is a significant independent risk factor for post-operative myocardial injury, acute kidney injury, stroke, and significantly increases 30-day mortality rate after surgery. Perioperative hypotension has been attributed to absolute or relative hypovolaemia secondary to pre-operative fasting and to the vasodilatory and negative inotropic effects of certain induction agents. Low baseline blood volume is a risk factor for post-induction hypotension. The general consensus remains that patients entering the operating room require fluids to make up for reduced pre-operative intake. Intravenous administration of 500 mL of crystalloid solution before induction of anaesthesia did not decrease the overall incidence of cardiovascular collapse during tracheal intubation of critically ill adults compared with no fluid bolus. Among patients in the intensive care unit requiring fluid challenges, intravenous crystalloid boluses of 250 ml before intubation did not reduce 90-day mortality. Preloading colloids reduced the occurrence of post-induction hypotension and vasopressor use, improved CI, and reduced SVV during the early intraoperative period. It is unknown whether pre-operative colloids infusion can reduce the incidence of post-operative complications by preventing post-induction hypotension. We will enroll patients with 18 years or older and undergoing elective surgery under general anesthsia. The participants in colloid group will receive intravenous colloids 5ml/kg before induction of anesthesia; who in crystalloid group will receive intravenous Ringer's solution 5ml/kg before induction of anesthesia. The primary outcome in this study is the incidence of post-operative complications (Clavien-Dindo) within 30 days. The secondary outcomes include the incidence of post-induction hypotension, the doses of vasopressors and inotropes intra-operatively, lengths of stay in hospital (LOS) post-operatively, optimal recovery post-operatively within 5 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of post-operative complications

    Modified Clavien-Dindo Classification ≥ grade I

    Measured: within 30 days after operation

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Post-induction hypotension (PIH)

    MAP < 65mmHg or 20% lower than the baseline from the time of anesthsia induction to incison

    Measured: during procedure ( the time from induction of anesthesia to incision)

  2. The doses of vasopressors and inotropes

    including epinephrine, norepinephrine, dopamine.

    Measured: intra-operatively,the time from induction of anesthesia to discharge from operating room

  3. Lengths of stay in hospital (LOS) post-operatively

    The time from the end of operation to discharge from hospital

    Measured: postoperatively within 30 days

  4. the incidence of optimal recovery

    Defined as discharge within 5 days of surgery with no major complications (Clavien-Dindo ≥ III), no infections of incisions, no re-admissions to hospital, and no deaths post-operatively

    Measured: post-operatively within 5 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Hydroxyethyl Starch 130/0.4 and Electrolyte injection of 5ml/kg and Multiple Electrolytes injection of 5 ml/kg in people with Postoperative Complications, run by Xijing Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 8 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 10 Jun 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 China. 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?

The incidence of post-operative complications (time frame: within 30 days after operation). 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 10 Jun 2026.
