Supernormal Goal for Proximal Femur Fracture

July 16, 2014 updated by: Xiangcai Ruan, Guangzhou First People's Hospital

Supernormal Oxygen Delivery May Not be a Valid Goal for Patients With Proximal Femur Fracture. An Observational Pilot Study

This is an observational pilot study of supernormal oxygen delivery goal for patients with proximal femoral fracture.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Augmentation of oxygen delivery using fluids with or without inotropes has been shown to improve surgical outcome in high-risk patients. Patients with proximal femoral fracture are considered high risk. However, most of this cohort elderly patients have poor cardiovascular condition and may not achieve the oxygen delivery goal. We will perform an observational pilot study whether the supernormal oxygen delivery is a valid hemodynamic goal for patients with proximal femoral fracture.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

70 years and older (Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients will be aged over 70 yr and weight over 35 kg, and undergoing proximal femur fracture (PFF) surgery under peripheral nerve block and laryngeal mask airway anesthesia.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients aged over 70 yr
  • Weight over 35 kg
  • Underwent proximal femur fracture (PFF) surgery under peripheral nerve block and laryngeal mask airway anesthesia.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who could be harmed due to the treatment (ongoing myocardial infarction, chronic dialysis)
  • Monoamine oxidase inhibitor use within the last 14 days
  • Pathological fractures and conditions
  • Inability to give informed consent(as judged by a research team member)

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Supernormal oxygen delivery goal therapy
Patients will be aged over 70 yr and weight over 35 kg, and undergoing proximal femur fracture (PFF) surgery under peripheral nerve block and laryngeal mask airway anesthesia.
Procedure: Supernormal oxygen delivery goal therapy
A 10% increase in stroke volume (SV) after fluid challenge (5 ml/kg) with Ringer's lactate solution will be deemed positive. Oxygen delivery will be check when fluid challenge becomes negative. If oxygen delivery index (DO2I) can not be greater than 600 mL/m2, then dobutamine will be started at a dose of 2.5 μg/kg/min and increased by the same increment every 20 minutes until the described target is reached or until a maximal dose of 10 μg/kg/min is given. Dobutamine is decreased in dose or discontinued if the heart rate is above 100 beats per minute or shows signs of cardiac ischemia. Blood transfusions will be used to maintain a hemoglobin concentration over 8mg/dL.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Oxgen delivery index
Time Frame: At the end of 4 hour goal-directed therapy
To attain a improved oxygen delivery index at the end of 4 hour goal-directed therapy
At the end of 4 hour goal-directed therapy

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
