About this study

Official title: Hypotension Prediction Index for Prevention of Hypotension and Postoperative Complications During Laparoscopic Surgery for Colorectal Cancer: A Multi-Center Randomized Trial

Using the Hypotension Prediction Index in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery, including data from National Taiwan University Hospital and Taipei Veterans General Hospital

Read the detailed description

Intraoperative hypotension is a common occurrence during laparoscopic colorectal cancer resection, often attributable to factors such as general anesthesia, the growing population of elderly patients, and the use of pneumoperitoneum during surgery. This condition, defined as a mean arterial pressure (MAP) below 65 mmHg, is linked to major organ complications within 30 days postoperatively. Introduced in 2019, the Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) is an algorithm designed to predict the onset of intraoperative hypotension. Previous studies have used the time-weighted average MAP below 65 mmHg as a primary endpoint, calculated as the area under the MAP curve <65 mmHg (mmHg × hours) divided by the duration of surgery (hours), with a value ≥0 indicating severity. Higher values reflect more severe hypotension. However, research on the application of HPI in laparoscopic colorectal cancer resection remains limited. This study aims to determine whether the use of HPI can reduce the severity of intraoperative hypotension in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal cancer resection and whether it can decrease the incidence of major postoperative organ complications. A total of 120 patients, aged 20-80 years and undergoing elective laparoscopic colorectal cancer resection, will be randomly assigned to two groups: an intervention group guided by HPI and a control group without HPI guidance. In the intervention group, an alert will be triggered when the HPI exceeds 85, indicating a potential MAP drop below 65 mmHg, whereas the control group will initiate hypotension treatment only when MAP falls below 65 mmHg. Both groups will adhere to the same intraoperative hypotension management protocols, including fluid resuscitation, vasopressor administration, and observation. The primary treatment outcome will be the time-weighted average MAP <65 mmHg, and major postoperative organ complications will be monitored for 30 days post-surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HPI guidance and No HPI guidance in people with the Duration and Severity of Intraoperative Hypotension, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Feb 2025. 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 Taiwan. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Chih-Jun Lai, MD, PhD (+886-965327939, littlecherrytw@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

time weighted average mean arterial pressure (TWA MAP) <65 mmHg (unit: mmHg) (time frame: during the whole surgery). 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 24 Feb 2025.
