About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Perioperative Volume Replacement with Volulyte 6% in Moderate-to-high Cardiovascular Risk Patients Having Major Abdominal Surgery: a Parallel-group, Double-blind Randomized Trial

The investigators propose a multicenter randomized trial to test the renal safety of 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 combined with sodium acetate Ringer's crystalloid solution in moderate-to-high cardiovascular risk patients having major abdominal surgery. The reference group will only be given sodium acetate Ringer's crystalloid.

Read the detailed description

The investigators propose a multicenter randomized trial to test the renal safety of 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 combined with sodium acetate Ringer's crystalloid solution in moderate-to-high cardiovascular risk patients having major abdominal surgery. The reference group will only be given sodium acetate Ringer's crystalloid.

The investigators will test the primary hypothesis that the maximum decrease in serum Cystatin-C-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from preoperatively through the initial 3 postoperative hospital days is non-inferior in patients who are randomized to a goal-directed combination of HES and crystalloid volume replacement versus goal-directed crystalloid alone.

Secondarily, the investigators will determine the long-term renal safety (cystatin C-based eGFR on postoperative 1 and 3 months) of HES and its effect on major adverse cardiovascular events and the length of hospitalization. Exploratory outcomes will include intraoperative hemodynamic indices, postoperative gastrointestinal indicators, the rate of unscheduled transferring to intensive care unit, the incidence of hospital re-admission within 30 days, the incidence of renal replacement therapy within 90 days after surgery, and the incidence of acute kidney injury based on serum creatine within 7 days.

Being tested
Hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4, Sodium acetate Ringer

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4Drug

    Also called Volulyte 6%, 6% Hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4

    Individualized goal-directed administration of 6% Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4: After the induction of anesthesia, 200 ml trial fluid will be infused over 20 min. If stroke volume (SV) increases \&gt;10%, another 200 ml fluid will be given. After that, the use of trial fluid will be determined by the patients' Stroke Volume Variation (SVV). If the SVV exceeds 12%, 200 ml trial fluid will be given over 20 min; this will be repeated until SVV \&lt;12%. If the use of HES exceeds 30 ml/kg, sodium acetate Ringer will be replaced. In addition, patients will have a background infusion of sodium acetate Ringer's solution at 4 ml/kg/h to satisfy the maintenance fluid requirements during surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum change in serum Cystatin-C based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from baseline through initial 3 postoperative hospital days

    The decrease in cystatin-C-based eGFR from preoperatively to the minimum value recorded during the initial three postoperative hospital days. Increases in postoperative eGFR will be considered a reduction of 0 for analysis purposes.

    Measured: Baseline and postoperative 1/2/3 day

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Cystatin-C based eGFR on postoperative 1 month

    The absolute value of cystatin-C based eGFR on postoperative 1 month.

    Measured: Postoperative 1 month

  2. Cystatin-C based eGFR on postoperative 3 months

    The absolute value of cystatin-C based eGFR on postoperative 3 months.

    Measured: Postoperative 3 months

  3. Postoperative major adverse cardiovascular events composite

    Major adverse cardiovascular events are a composite of all-cause mortality or one or more of the following cardiovascular complications occurring within 30 days after surgery: myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS), non-fatal cardiac arrest, stroke, ventricular arrhythmia requiring treatment.

    Measured: Postoperative 30 days

  4. The length of hospitalization

    Measured: Postoperative 3 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 and Sodium acetate Ringer in people with Perioperative Volume Replacement and Hydroxyethyl Starch, run by Xiangya Hospital of Central South University at 6 sites 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 14 inclusion and 16 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 29 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 E Wang, M.D., Ph.D. (+8618874889950, ewang324@csu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maximum change in serum Cystatin-C based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from baseline through initial 3 postoperative hospital days (time frame: Baseline and postoperative 1/2/3 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06663254, which also lists 11 linked publications.

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 29 Oct 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
