Effects of Intraoperative GDFT on the Postoperative Brain Edema

March 22, 2023 updated by: Yuming Peng, Beijing Tiantan Hospital

Effects of Intraoperative Goal-directed Fluid Therapy (GDFT) on the Postoperative Brain Edema in Neurosurgical Patients With Malignant Supratentorial Gliomas

Whether a fluid protocol aiming for protecting vital organ perfusion or fluid restriction is favorable to post-craniotomy outcomes such as brain edema remains uncertain. To our knowledge, there has been no extensive and quantitative analysis of brain edema following SVV-based GDFT in neurosurgical patients with malignant supratentorial glioma. So the study aims to observe the effect of the stroke volume variation-based GDFT on the postoperative brain edema and decrease the incidence of postoperative complications in neurosurgical patients with malignant supratentorial gliomas.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Supportive Care
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Double

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: GDFT group
The patients will receive fluid therapy under goal directed.
Target parameter will be titrated with fluid bolus, and thus individual amount varied depending on the parameter value at that time. Maintenance of oxygenation, hemoglobin, blood glucose, core temperature and hemodynamics, such as mean arterial pressure and heart rate, will be applied according to the same standard for each patient.
Sham Comparator: Routine group
The patients will receive routine fluid therapy.
Fluid therapy will be done without goal directed. Maintenance of oxygenation, hemoglobin, blood glucose, core temperature and hemodynamics, such as mean arterial pressure and heart rate, will be applied according to the same standard for each patient.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Quantitative analysis of brain edema
Time Frame: Within 24 hours postoperatively
Postoperative brain edema is defined as edema surrounding the surgical resection cavity, which will be evaluated through CT images.Image evaluators will manually delineate region of interest (ROI) and operative cavity on each slice. The area will be calculated automatically by PACS system. The total volume will be acquired by multiplying area and slice thickness. The volume of edema will be calculated by the totoal volume of edema plus cavity minus the volume of cavity.
Within 24 hours postoperatively

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The incidence of delirium
Time Frame: During the first 3 postoperative days
Delirium was assessed twice daily (between 8-10 am and between 6-8 pm) with the Confusion Assessment Method for Intensive Care Unit (CAM-ICU) for critical care patients, or the 3-minute Diagnostic interview for Confusion Assessment Method (3D-CAM) for ward assessments, combined with the Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (RASS). Delirium assessments were only conducted in patients with RASS sedation score exceeding -4.
During the first 3 postoperative days
