About this study

Official title: Can Goal Directed Hemodynamic Management Improve Renal Outcome After Major Non-cardiac Surgery?

This study is designed to compare renal outcome of patients following major non-cardiac surgery with different perioperative hemodynamic managements: a goal directed hemodynamic management group (using PiCCO) and a control group.

Read the detailed description

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after major surgery. Many studies showed that AKI is associated with different complications: higher mortality, renal replacement therapy and prolonged hospital stay resulting in higher health care costs.

Until now just a few studies are published on prevention or therapy of AKI after major surgery. Most of these investigations are underpowered or show just marginal benefit. There are no studies published investigating the impact of goal-directed hemodynamic management on renal outcome following non-cardiac major surgery, even though hemodynamic stability seems to be of paramount importance for the kidneys.

Aim of this study is to investigate the impact of a goal directed hemodynamic management on renal outcome after major non-cardiac surgery.

Therefore patients will be randomized in one of two groups, the PiCCO group with goal directed hemodynamic management and the Control group, where PICCO data will be collected but will not influence hemodynamic management. In both groups the monitoring with transpulmonary thermodilution will be continued in the intensive care unit until 72 hours after surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. maximum change in serum creatinine within 3 days

    Measured: Start of anesthesia until third postoperative day (72 hours)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. incidence of AKI according to the RIFLE criteria, need for dialysis, pulmonal complications, rate of anastomotic insufficiency, sepsis, reoperation

    All points are additionnally registered one year after the operation via telephone-questionnaire of the patient and his general practitioner

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Major Non-cardiac Surgery, run by Technical University of Munich at 1 site in Germany.

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 8 inclusion and 7 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 17 Jan 2013. 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 Germany. 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.

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?

maximum change in serum creatinine within 3 days (time frame: Start of anesthesia until third postoperative day (72 hours)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01035541, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 17 Jan 2013.
