PVI Based Intraoperative Fluid Management in Head and Neck Free Flap Reconstructive Surgeries

April 13, 2017 updated by: DR ITEE CHOWDHURY, Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute & Research Center, India

Pleth Variability Index Based Intraoperative Fluid Management in Head and Neck Free Flap Reconstructive Surgeries

Intraoperative fluid given according to BMI in group B and according to pulse oximeter- derived pleth variability index(MASIMO RAINBOW PULSE CO OXIMETRY) in group G. Comparison of haemodynamics, urine output,blood lactate levels, blood sugar, flap sugar and coagulation profile between the two groups.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

A sample size of 80 taken and computer generated random allocation done to divide the patients in two groups(40 each). Head and neck onco surgery patients undergoing resection and reconstruction with radial artery free flap and antero lateral thigh free flap of duration 4-6 hours taken for surgery.

Group B to receive intravenous fluid according to body weight stating at the rate 6-8 ml/kg/hr.

Group G to receive intravenous fluid according to Pleth variability index value(4-11).Blood loss up to 10% replacement by colloids.

Comparison of following parameters:

Demography, haemodynamics,urine output .blood lactate, ph, oxygenation index ,thromboelastography (TEG), blood sugar, flap sugar .

  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Group B

Group B- intervention -Body weight guided Intraoperative fluid administered @ 6-8 ml/kg and blood loss replacement with colloid.

hourly urine output if less than 0.5ml/hr 100-200ml bolus of plasmalyte was administered.

Intravenous fluid @6-8ml.kg and blood loss replacement with colloids maintaining urine output of 0.5ml/kg
Active Comparator: Group G
Group G- intervention - PVI( Masimo co oximeter) guided fluid therapy.

goal directed fluid therapy maintaining pvi 4-11. when pvi<4 fluid rate is 50-60ml/hr and pvi>11 200ml colloid bolus transfusion till pvi value achieves normal range.

In the control group crystalloid was administered @ 6-8 ml/kg and blood loss was replaced by colloids. Hourly urine output was measured and if less than 0.5ml/hr bolus crystalloid 100-200ml was administered

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Changes in TEG waveform tracing as obtained from TEG 5000 Hemostasis analyser system
Time Frame: six months
The investigators hypothesize that the patients in group G receiving PVI (pleth variability index) guided fluid therapy will have normal TEG parameter (R,K, ALPHA, MA and LY30) values and the patients in group B may have abnormal TEG parameter values.
six months
