Arterial Pulse Waveform Contour Analysis for Intraoperative Goal Directed Therapy in Major Abdominal Surgery

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Surgical Procedures, Operative
Interventions
Device: Vigileo
Registration Number
NCT01082614
Lead Sponsor
Loma Linda University
Brief Summary

This study evaluates whether using information from a special arterial blood pressure monitor to guide how much fluid is given during surgery changes how long a patient stays in the hospital after the surgery. There is scientific evidence from using similar information from different devices that this technique might allow us to do a better job giving fluids during surgery and that this may be associated with shorter hospital stay after surgery.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Length of Postoperative Hospital Staywithin one month

time in days from end of surgery to hospital discharge

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Quality of Recovery Score on Postoperative Day 2Postoperative day 2

Measure of quality of recovery (QOR) using scoring system in 9 domains as assessed by patient and nursing team. Score for each domain is assigned as 0, 1 or 2; the sum of scores is the QOR score with a range of 0 to 18. Higher scores indicate better quality of recovery after surgery.

Quality of Recovery Score on Postoperative Day 4Postoperative day 4

Measure of quality of recovery (QOR) using scoring system in 9 domains as assessed by patient and nursing team. Score for each domain is assigned as 0, 1 or 2; the sum of scores is the QOR score with a range of 0 to 18. Higher scores indicate better quality of recovery following surgery.
