The Effect of Esophageal Doppler Guided Goal-directed Hemodynamic Therapy in Severe Trauma Patients

Completed
Conditions
Trauma
Interventions
Device: esophageal Doppler
Registration Number
NCT03339375
Lead Sponsor
Ajou University School of Medicine
Brief Summary

Prospective randomized clinical trial Compare the goal-directed fluid therapy using esophageal Doppler and classic fluid therapy

Detailed Description

Goal directed fluid therapy becomes issue for enhanced recovery after surgery. In goal directed therapy, dynamic parameters, like stroke volume and cardiac output, is important. Esophageal Doppler is one of device which provides dymanic parameters.

In severe trauma cases, the effect of goal directed therapy is not known yet. So the aim of this study is comparing the results of goal directed therapy using esophageal Doppler and conventional fluid therapy.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
LactateImmediate postoperative (=initial ICU admission)

Unit is mmol/L Inclusion criteria is initial lactate \> 2mmol/L. Whole hospital use same device and unit to measure lactate. In this study, POCT lactate won't be used.

After surgical resuscitation, lactate level is independent predictor of survival, because it represents tissue oxygenation.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
CreatinineImmediate postop

Kidney function

Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) scoreImmediate postoperative

ICU patient scoring system, score from 0 to 71, higher scores correspond to more severe disease and a higher risk of death
