Observation of Principal Hemodynamic Variables After Spinal Anesthesia With Non Invasive Hemodynamic Monitoring

Completed

• Conditions: Hemodynamics; Fluid Therapy; Anesthesia, Spinal; Monitoring, Intraoperative

• Registration Number: NCT03086603
• Lead Sponsor: Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli

Brief Summary

The study is aimed at observe how spinal anesthesia modifies the hemodynamic state of the patient after optimization to preload independence with a Goal Directed Therapy algorithm guided by non invasive hemodynamic monitoring with Clearsight.

Detailed Description

This is an observational prospective single group study.

Patients will be monitored with ECG (III leads), non invasive blood pressure cuff (NIBP) cuff, pulse oximetry and Clearsight finger cuff after their arrival in the operating room. Basal Stroke Volume (SV) and indexed Stroke Volume (SVI) will be registered.

The basal value will be optimized according to the study goal directed fluid therapy algorithm: a 200ml fluid challenge will be administered until the SV will increase of at least 10%. When the SV will stop increasing significantly after crystalloid administration, the SV and SVI value will be registered as SVoptimized (SVopt) and SVI optimized (SVIopt), while the same values trigger of the last fluid challenge will be registered as SVtarget1 and SVItarget1. A constant infusion of crystalloids 2 ml/Kg/h will be maintained throughout the study period.

Then, spinal anesthesia will be administered (levobupivacaine 0.5% 0.25mg/kg of ideal weight) in lateral decubitus. After 15 minutes, patients will be turned supine and after 5 minutes SV and SVI will be registered and compared with values SVtarget1 and SVItarget1: if within 10% of range, data will be registered as SVtarget2 and SVItarget2 and patient will maintain basal crystalloid infusion. Otherwise, patients will receive a fluid optimization similar to what described previously before spinal, until values will be within 10% of range of SV and SVI.

Afterwards patients will be transferred to the operating room and will be followed as described in Figure 2. At the end of surgery, patients will be transferred to the Recovery Room and will be monitored and optimized.

When patients will reach an Aldrete's Score ≥ 9/10 and a Bromage's score = 0 with sensibility restored at S1, we will compare SV and SVI value with SVtarget1 and SVItarget1 and treated accordingly.

Spontaneous micturition will be tested and in case a bladder volume \> 600ml will be detected with ultrasound before recovery room discharge criteria fulfillment, we will proceed with urinary catheterization.

At patient discharge from the Recovery Room the study will be completed.
