enFlow IV Fluid and Blood Warming System

June 28, 2022 updated by: Vyaire Medical

Verification of Clinical Utility: enFlow IV Fluid and Blood Warming System

This study is part of a post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF). The purpose of this study is to verify in a routine clinical environment with a number of caregivers and subjects that the enFlow performs as intended when used as an element of maintaining acceptable core temperatures.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

Eligible subjects from the study will be recruited from patients with scheduled surgeries. After being informed about the study and potential risks, patients given informed consent will undergo scheduled surgery with the use of enFlow IV Fluid and Blood Warming System. The following temperature measurements will be collected during surgery:

  • Baseline temperature measurement (0-15 minutes prior to induction)
  • Induction temperature measurements (15 minutes, 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minute post-induction)
  • Continued temperature measurements (every 30 minutes, plus end of surgery)
  • OR ambient temperature at induction and end of surgery.

Temperature will be measured and collected post-surgery upon arrival to the PACU and 30 minutes post-arrival.

Study Population

Subjects from the study will be recruited from patients with scheduled surgeries. Most are expected to be inpatient due to the exclusion of short surgeries. For this study, only adults will be enrolled. Participation will also be limited to patients fluent in the language(s) of the information and consent form.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 18 years of age or older
  • Patients requiring surgery expected to last at least 1 hour.
  • Expectation of the perioperative need for at least one liter of infused fluids warmed during infusion
  • Informed Consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Recent history of fever (>38 C, within 24 hours of surgery)
  • Active infection
  • Pregnant women
  • Terminal illness (<30 days)
  • Intended use of cardiopulmonary bypass
  • Clinical intention for perioperative cooling and hypothermia
  • unavailability of esophageal measurement during surgery
  • Attending physician does not believe participation of the patient is in their best interest.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Maintenance of intraoperative core temperature
Time Frame: 15 and 30 minutes post-induction, then every 30 minutes untl the termination of the scheduled surgical procedure, and a final measurement recorded at the time of termination of the scheduled surgical procedure.
Core temperature is defined as the highest temperature reading during 30 seconds made within 5 minutes of protocol time. The primary outcome measure will be the mean of the temperature measurements taken during the course of surgery
15 and 30 minutes post-induction, then every 30 minutes untl the termination of the scheduled surgical procedure, and a final measurement recorded at the time of termination of the scheduled surgical procedure.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Core temperature for two periods
Time Frame: Induction: first 90 minutes. Post-Induction: after 90 minutes until the end of surgery,
The mean of the measurements taken during the Induction period and during the Post-Induction period.
Induction: first 90 minutes. Post-Induction: after 90 minutes until the end of surgery,
Number of hypothermic events
Time Frame: During 30 seconds made within 5 minutes of protocol time
The incidence and duration of hypothermic events (<36.0C).
During 30 seconds made within 5 minutes of protocol time
Number of hyperthermic events
Time Frame: During 30 seconds made within 5 minutes of protocol time
The incidence and duration of hyperthermic events (>38.0 oC).
During 30 seconds made within 5 minutes of protocol time
Incidence of infusate outside acceptable operating range (i.e., device "green range")
Time Frame: Induction: first 90 minutes. Post-Induction: after 90 minutes until the end of surgery,
Device reading 35-42 oC
Induction: first 90 minutes. Post-Induction: after 90 minutes until the end of surgery,
