May 29, 2019 updated by: Huang YuGuang

Effect of Goal-Directed Intraoperative Fluid Therapy on Outcomes Following Laparotomy of Gynecological Malignancies and Orthopedic Surgery

This study is aim to assess the effect of goal-directed intraoperative fluid therapy on patient's postoperative incidence rates of complications, length of hospitalization and hospitalization cost.

This is an observational study followed cohort study design, due to the two therapies were not randomized assigned to the two cohorts. The details are described as follow.

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

The study will be conducted in patients undergoing either elective laparotomy of gynecological malignancies or elective major orthopaedic surgery under prone position in Peking Union Medical College Hospital. The study included two stages.

In the first stage, one cohort of 300 participants with conventional fluid therapy will be involved, in which 150 patients will be selected with laparotomy of gynecological malignancies and150 patients will be selected with orthopedic surgery. All the participants in this stage will follow conventional fluid therapy to direct the amount of intraoperative fluid. Specifically, the fluid will be administered based on the principle crystalloid solution (colloid solution =2-3:1). The total volume of fluid will be adjusted in accordance with blood pressure, heart rate and urine output of each patient. It is a standard procedure in Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Then, the incidence of postoperative complications of each group will be recorded. In addition, sample size will be estimated based on above study's results (estimated 100 participants).

In the second stage, goal-directed therapy will be applied to another cohort of 300 participants, in which 150 patients undergoing laparotomy of gynecological malignancies and 150 patients undergoing orthopedic surgery. Specifically, the fluid will be administered based upon real-time monitoring stroke volume variation and cardiac output achieved by the Flo-Trac monitoring system. The incidence of postoperative complications of each group will be recorded.

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

18 years to 90 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

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.
Goal-directed fluid therapy
The fluid in group Goal-directed fluid therapy will be administered based upon real-time monitoring stroke volume variation and cardiac output achieved by the Flo-Trac monitoring system.
Other: Applying goal-directed fluid therapy by continuous hemodynamic monitoring system
Applying continuous hemodynamic monitoring system ( Vigileo/Flotrac) to monitor Stroke Volume Variation and Cardiac Output and further manage intra-operative fluid therapy.
Conventional fluid therapy
The fluid in group Conventional fluid therapy will be administered based on the principle crystalloid solution: colloid solution =2-3:1. The total volume of fluid will be adjusted in accordance with blood pressure, heart rate and urine output of each patient.
Other: Conventional fluid therapy
Applying conventional fluid therapy according to Peking Union Medical College Hospital standard.

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
postoperative complications
Time Frame: 30 days after the surgery
the incidence of complications related to surgeries 30 days postoperatively. The complications include pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction, heart failure), wound infection, gastrointestinal bleeding,nausea and vomitting，postoperative hemorrhage, ileus, deep venous thrombosis, cerebral infarction, cerebral embolism, cerebral hemorrhage, renal insufficiency and failure. Those complications are defined strictly to the reference published in 2009 New England Journal of Medicine （N Engl J Med. 2009 Oct 1;361:1368-75）
30 days after the surgery

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
hospital length of stay
Time Frame: participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 10 days
the length of stay in hospital，from the hospitalized date to the leave date
participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 10 days
hospital expenses
Time Frame: 30 days after the surgery
total cost in hospital
30 days after the surgery
