Intraoperative Optimisation of Tissue Oxygenation

February 20, 2013 updated by: Prof.dr.T.W.L.Scheeren, University Medical Center Groningen

Intraoperative Monitoring and Optimisation of Tissue Oxygenation In High-Risk Surgical Patients for Reduction of Postoperative Complications: a Pilot Study

Monitoring and optimizing tissue oxygenation (StO2) in high-risk surgery and/or high-risk surgical patients may decrease the risk of postoperative complications.

Tissue hypoxia occurs frequently during high-risk surgery in high-risk patients. The investigators want to see if an algorithm aimed at optimizing intraoperative tissue oxygenation reduces perioperative complications as well as length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU LOS), 28-day mortality, and the duration of mechanical ventilation in these patients.

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Prevention
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
No Intervention: standard care
The data from the InSPectra Monitor in the Control group will be inaccessible for the Investigator since this is not a part of their daily medical practice
Active Comparator: Treatment group,
The data given by the monitor will be available for the Investigator and used to apply the optimization protocol
