Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to find out if guided fluid administration with the esophageal monitor is superior to standard fluid administration and whether use of the hetastarch or lactated ringers offers different benefits with respect to length of stay in the hospital after hand-assisted colorectal surgery.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized Prospective Double Blind Assessment of Goal-Directed Intraoperative Fluid Management in Hand Assisted Laparoscopic Colectomy: Standard Care Versus Either Colloid and Crystalloid

The purpose of this study is to find out if guided fluid administration with the esophageal monitor is superior to standard fluid administration and whether use of the hetastarch or lactated ringers offers different benefits with respect to length of stay in the hospital after hand-assisted colorectal surgery.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Determine the relative effects of a standard, colloid or crystalloid based strategy for hand-assisted laparoscopic colectomy surgery on decreasing length of stay

    Measured: 90 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. 1. Determine the effects of the three fluid management strategies on post-operative fluid requirements in colorectal surgery. on the incidence and severity of post-operative complications. on return of gastrointestinal function.

    Measured: 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Hextend and Lactated Ringers in people with Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, run by Corewell Health West at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Oct 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Determine the relative effects of a standard, colloid or crystalloid based strategy for hand-assisted laparoscopic colectomy surgery on decreasing length of stay (time frame: 90 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Oct 2009.
