Registration Number
NCT04719884
Lead Sponsor
University Medical Centre Ljubljana
Brief Summary

Goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) with hemodynamic monitoring may not be of benefit to all elective patients undergoing major abdominal surgery, particularly those managed in Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocols (ERAS) setting.

Detailed Description

Our study compared two groups of patients undergoing elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery: a control group (CG) in which standard haemodynamic monitoring was used, and a study group (SG) in which extended haemodynamic monitoring was applied with appropriate intraoperative interventions. Differences in intraoperative fluid management, hospital stay, and postoperative morbidity were observed.
