  • Ages 18 to 99 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The patients included in the study were intubated after standard anaesthesia induction with fentanyl 2 mcg/kg, propofol 2 mg/kg and rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg, and ODM was used for case follow-up. All patients were followed with standard 6% desflurane anaesthetic gas and intravenous infusion of remifentanil, a short-acting opioid, after intubation. Mean arterial pressure was kept in the range of 65-80 mmHg in all patients, tidal volume was adjusted as 6-8 ml/kg, peep (positive end expiratory pressure) as 0-6 cm H2O and respiratory frequency as 10-15 /min for normocapnia. After intubation, intraoperative ODM measurements and intraoperative ODM measurements were retrospectively scanned and recorded in the supine and 45-degree angle trendelenburg position.

Who may be able to join

  • Elective operation
  • ASA 1-4

Who cannot join

  • Heart failure
  • Valvular heart disease,
  • Patients with symptomatic rhythm disturbances

About this study

Official title: The Impact of Patient Position Changes on Advanced Hemodynamic Indices in Laparoscopic and Open Major Abdominal Cancer Surgeries

Esophageal Doppler Monitoring (Deltex CardioQ Esophageal Doppler Monitor, ODM) is used to manage patients' fluid therapy by non-invasively measuring continuous cardiac output with an esophageal probe. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of patient position changes on cardiac indices and vital signs in patients who underwent major abdominal cancer surgery with laparoscopic and open surgery using ODM.

Read the detailed description

Patients who underwent major abdominal cancer surgery using ODM in the operating room of our hospital between November 2021 and November 2022 were identified from the Anesthesiology Clinic records and examined according to whether they were operated with open or closed (laparoscopic) methods. Demographic data, vital signs, amount of bleeding, type and amount of fluid administered, and the results of cardiac index measurements performed with the ODM device in the supine and trendelenburg positions (45 degrees) were analyzed. Parameters recorded with the ODM device; CO: Cardiac output, FTc: Flow time corrected, PV: Peak velocity, SD: Stroke distance.

Being tested
cardiac indices in supine and trendelenburg position

What is being measured

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

  1. Cardiac Output

    Measurement of cardiac output with the oesophageal doppler device immediately after induction of anaesthesia and in the middle of the case in both supine and trendelenburg position of the patient to see whether there is a significant difference in positional change.

    Measured: Immediately after induction of anaesthesia and at any stable time during the case

  2. Stroke Volume

    Measurement of cardiac output with the oesophageal doppler device immediately after induction of anaesthesia and in the middle of the case in both supine and trendelenburg position of the patient to see whether there is a significant difference in positional change.

    Measured: Immediately after induction of anaesthesia and at any stable time during the case

  3. Flow time corrected

    Measurement of cardiac output with the oesophageal doppler device immediately after induction of anaesthesia and in the middle of the case in both supine and trendelenburg position of the patient to see whether there is a significant difference in positional change.

    Measured: Immediately after induction of anaesthesia and at any stable time during the case

  4. Peak Velocity

    Measurement of cardiac output with the oesophageal doppler device immediately after induction of anaesthesia and in the middle of the case in both supine and trendelenburg position of the patient to see whether there is a significant difference in positional change.

    Measured: Immediately after induction of anaesthesia and at any stable time during the case

  5. Stroke Distance

    Measurement of cardiac output with the oesophageal doppler device immediately after induction of anaesthesia and in the middle of the case in both supine and trendelenburg position of the patient to see whether there is a significant difference in positional change.

    Measured: Immediately after induction of anaesthesia and at any stable time during the case

  6. Mean arterial pressure

    Measurement of cardiac output with the oesophageal doppler device immediately after induction of anaesthesia and in the middle of the case in both supine and trendelenburg position of the patient to see whether there is a significant difference in positional change.

    Measured: Immediately after induction of anaesthesia and at any stable time during the case

  7. Pulse

    Measurement of cardiac output with the oesophageal doppler device immediately after induction of anaesthesia and in the middle of the case in both supine and trendelenburg position of the patient to see whether there is a significant difference in positional change.

    Measured: Immediately after induction of anaesthesia and at any stable time during the case
