D.8 Information on Placebo
E. General Information on the Trial
E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation
E.1.1Medical condition(s) being investigated
Arterial hypotension
MedDRA Classification
E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
E.2 Objective of the trial
E.2.1Main objective of the trial
We investigate in newborns (e.g. term or preterm infants of less than 44 weeks postmenstrual age) with arterial hypotension, whether plasma volume expansion by HES 130/0.4 (Voluven) leads to less fluid loss into the interstitial space and increases the blood pressure more effectively and permanently than the administration of crystalloid solutions .
E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
1. Need for an additional volume substitution due to arterial hypotension;
2. Urinary output;
3. Requirement for catecholamines to maintain blood pressure above the nominal value of postmenstrual age;
4. Intravascular volume expansion (evaluated as a decrease in haematocrit and serum proteins after the administration of fluids);
5. Respiratory compliance (estimated in a subgroup of patients on mechanical ventilation)
E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Information not present in EudraCT
E.3Principal inclusion criteria
1. Newborn infants with a postmenstrual age of less than 44 weeks and
2. Diagnosis of arterial hypotension
E.4Principal exclusion criteria
1. Major congenital malformations (affecting the renal and cardio-vascular system)
2. Bleeding disorders
3. Renal failure with oliguria
4. Hypervolaemia with lung oedema
E.5 End points
E.5.1Primary end point(s)
a) Success rate: correction of arterial blood pressure above the nominal value of postmenstrual age for at least 2 hours after intervention.
b) Extravascular fluid accumulation: estimated during the 48 hours after the intervention, judged by i) positive fluid balance and/or oedema formation, characterized by an oedema index
