Comparison of Bladder Pressure Versus Regional Intestinal Tissue Oxygenation in Infants

Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
Abdominal Compartment Syndrome
Intraabdominal Hypertension
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Near infrared-spectroscopy
Registration Number
NCT05971264
Lead Sponsor
University Children's Hospital, Zurich
Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn more about intestinal regional oxygen saturation measurements made with near-infrared spectroscopy and bladder pressure measurements in infants without risk of intraabdominal hypertension. The main question it aims to answer is if - in comparison to bladder pressure - the regional intestinal oxygen saturation measured with near-infrared spectroscopy is stable in the muscle-relaxed, intubated patients and the awake and non-sedated patient.

In case of participation the bladder pressure and the regional intestinal oxygen saturation (measured with near-infrared spectroscopy) will each be measured once intraoperatively and once postoperatively. Patients included in this study will be undergoing an operation which necessitates muscle-relaxation, as well as an indwelling urinary catheter during the operation and for a short-time thereafter for other reasons than this study.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Intestinal rSpO2 measurements in muscle-relaxed, intubated patientsintraoperative measurements taken within the first 10 minutes after anaesthesia induction

Our primary endpoint is the regional intestinal oxygen saturation (rSpO2) measurement (average of 5 measurements taken every 30 seconds within 2 minutes) in muscle-relaxed, intubated patients

Intestinal rSpO2 measurements in awake, non-sedated patientspostoperative measurements taken within the first three postoperative days

Our primary endpoint is the regional intestinal oxygen saturation (rSpO2) measurements (average of 5 measurements taken every 30 seconds within 2 minutes) in awake, non-sedated patients

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Bladder pressure valuestaken once intraoperatively within the first 10 minutes after anaesthesia induction and once postoperatively within the first three postoperative days

Bladder pressure measurements measured under two different circumstances: once muscle-relaxed, intubated patients (i.e. under ideal circumstances for these measurements) and once in awake, non-sedated patients (less ideal circumstances).
