Traditional Versus ScvO2 Guided Perioperative Fluid Therapy

June 5, 2009 updated by: Haukeland University Hospital

Randomized Clinical Study of Traditional Versus ScvO2 Guided Perioperative Fluid Therapy

Perioperative goal directed fluid therapy by means of an esophageal doppler has been shown to reduce morbidity and length of stay. In this study patients undergoing elective bowel surgery will be randomised to traditional fluid therapy with crystalloids versus fluid boluses guided by central venous oxygen saturation. The primary outcome will be complications after surgery.
