Clinical Outcomes and Costs Analyses in Use of Goal Directed Therapy

April 6, 2016 updated by: Ester Forastiere, Regina Elena Cancer Institute
The aim of the study is to evaluate clinical and economic impact of Goal Directed Fluid Therapy according to NICE haemodynamic protocol. Haemodynamic parameters were assessed using automated pulse contour analysis (Flotrac/Vigileo®). A specific dedicated software has been developed to perform clinical and expenditures data collection, both retrospective and prospective data are archived.
