About this study

Official title: Observational Study on the Clinical Impact of Systemic and Cerebral Desaturation During Liver Transplantation and Hepatectomy

The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical impact of cerebral and systemic desaturation during liver transplantation and resection on post-operative complications.

Read the detailed description

This is an observational study. Cerebral and systemic oxymetry (rSO2) using near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS, Invos 5100; Somanet- ics Corporation, Troy, MI) will be performed on all patients with 4 optodes (right and left temporal area, arm and leg). Continuous rSO2 values will be stored on a hard disk with a 15 seconds update within intraoperative period and first 4 hours after the surgery. Desaturation phases (saturation decrease more than 20% of the basal value for more than 15 seconds) will be correlated to operative procedure or events. Postoperative adverse events will be collected. A correlation between desaturation and postoperative adverse events will be done with a multiple linear regression model.

    oxymetry measurement using near infrared spectroscopy

What is being measured

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

  1. define the correlation coefficient between the number of systemic and/or cerebral desaturation phases and the number of postoperative adverse events

    Measured: from the beginning of anesthesia till 4 hours after the end of the surgery

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. define the prevalence of systemic and cerebral desaturation phases during hepatic surgery or transplantation

    Measured: from the beginning of anesthesia till 4 hours after the end of the surgery

  2. define the correlation coefficient between systemic and/or cerebral desaturation phases and the length of stay in intensive care unit

    Measured: duration of intensive care stay, an expected average of 4 days

  3. validate the equivalence of the systemic and cerebral oxymetry

    Measured: from the beginning of anesthesia till 4 hours after the end of the surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cerebral Desaturation, run by Centre hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CHUM) at 1 site in Canada.

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 2 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 29 Jan 2014. 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 Canada. 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?

define the correlation coefficient between the number of systemic and/or cerebral desaturation phases and the number of postoperative adverse events (time frame: from the beginning of anesthesia till 4 hours after the end of the surgery). 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 29 Jan 2014.
