Overview
Brief Summary
Neurosurgical operations are characterised by major fluid shift, frequent use of diuretics, and prolonged operative time. The role of fluid therapy in these patients is very critical; hypovolemia might decrease cerebral perfusion; while, fluid over-infusion might swell the brain (1-3). Thus, fluid management in these procedures complex and challenging. Evidence on the optimum protocol for intraoperative fluid management in neurosurgical patients is still lacking. Adequate intracranial volume management is considered a key factor that would overcome the tumour bulk and the surrounding vasogenic oedema facilitating surgical access . Thus, a relaxed brain is one of the targets of intraoperative fluid management during craniotomy. The slack brain would allow proper surgical retraction and consequently, reduces brain retractor ischemia. Brain relaxation scale (BRS) had shown a good correlation with intracranial pressure thus, an increasing interest was paid to BRS as a simple surrogate for intracranial pressure (4-8).
Goal-directed hemodynamic therapy (GDT) in the operating room is a term used to describe the use of defined hemodynamic targets to guide intravenous fluid and inotropic therapy. Pulse pressure variation (PPV) is one of the robust dynamic indices of fluid responsiveness which is based on heart-lung interactions (9-12). GDT had been frequently investigated in the operating room in high-risk patients especially in major surgery. However, the impact of GDT on patient outcomes, especially BRS, is not well evaluated in brain surgery (12-15). In this study, we evaluated PPV-guided fluid management compared to standard fluid management in patients undergoing supratentorial mass excision. We hypothesised that in these procedures, GDT might restrict intraoperative fluid volume, improve brain relaxation, and provide stable patient hemodynamics.
Detailed Description
Anesthetic management: Peripheral i.v line will be inserted and 2-3 mg midazolam and 2 gm magnesium are given. A pre-induction radial arterial line is inserted with the aid of infiltration of 2 ml lidocaine 2%. Invasive arterial blood pressure monitoring is started and pulse oximetry, 5-leads ECG, and NIBP are attached to the patient and mindray ipm-12 monitor is used. Anesthetic induction started with propofol 1-2 mg/kg, lidocaine 1 mg/kg, cis-atracurium 0.2 mg/kg and fentanyl 1-2 microgram/kg. Intubation is done with cuffed endotracheal tube and tidal volume and respiratory rate are set to achieve end-tidal Co2 of 30-28 mmHg. Esophageal temperature probe and urinary catheter are put in place. Patients then will receive maintenance of anesthesia with isoflurane \< 1 MAC, propofol 10-60 microgram/kg/min, dexmedetomidine loading 1 microgram/kg bolus in 10 minutes followed by 0.2-1 microgram/kg/hour and cis-atracurium 2-3 microgram/kg/minute. Patients will receive mannitol 20% 0.5-1 gm/kg and dexamethasone 8mg and paracetamol 1gm near the end of surgery. Patients will receive their fasting requirements of normal saline in the first 3 hours of surgery. Maintenance fluid used will be ringer acetate and will be given according to pulse pressure variation index (PPVI) that is derived from pulse contour analysis of invasive arterial blood pressure waveform. Patients are then divided into two groups of two different targets of PPVI. Group A will be given ringer acetate when PPVI is \> 12% and group B will be given ringer acetate when PPVI is \> 16%. If hypotension occurred without change in PPVI targets, it will be treated with 10 mg ephedrine. Arterial blood gas samples will be collected at induction and at the end of surgery. After removal of cranial fixation pins, anesthesia is discontinued and reversal of muscle relaxant is done with atropine 0.5 mg and neostigmine 0.05 mg/kg then extubation is done and patient is transferred to the ICU.
