Hyperlactatemia During and After Tumorcraniotomy

August 16, 2022 updated by: Alexandra Vassilieva, Rigshospitalet, Denmark

Elevated Serum-lactate in Patients With Brain Tumor During and After Elective Craniotomy: an Observational Clinical Study of Postoperative Patient Outcome.

This study aims to investigate the association between hyperlactatemia and neurological disability, length-of-stay and mortality in patients who undergo tumorcraniotomy. The risk factors that induce lactat accumulation will also be explored.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Hyperlactatemia is a frequent occurrence in brain tumor surgery. The existing studies, however, are all retrospective, reporting varying effects on clinical outcome. One study reported new neurological deficitis, some found an association with extended hospital stay, while others found no association with outcome. It is therefore important to conduct a prospective study of hyperlactatemia in this patientgroup.

Participants in this study will follow the standard treatment protocol for tumorcraniotomy, aside from 2-3 additional, perioperative blodgas analyses and 2 standardized measurements of neurological disability.
