Study Overview

Brief Summary

The present study will investigate variations in acid base equilibrium caused by the administration of four different crystalloids with increasing strong ion difference (0.9% saline, Ringer's lactate, Ringer's acetate, plasmalyte-like solution) in patients during general anesthesia.

The same crystalloid will be administered throughout the surgery. In order to assess the effect of hemodilution, every patient will receive two fluid boli with different volumes of the same solution. pH and strong ion variations, togher with the renal response to acid base disturbances, will be analysed.

Arms & Interventions

Chloride-rich solution

Experimental

Patients will receive two boluses of 10 and 20 ml/kg of the 0.9% saline in two different moments after at least 1 hour from each other. Plasma arterial blood gas (ABG) and electrolytes, along with plasmatic creatinine, albumin and phosphate will be measured immediately before and five minutes after fluid boluses. Urinary electrolytes (Na, K, Cl) will be measured immediately before fluid bolus and after one hour from fluid administration along with ABG and plasmatic electrolytes and creatinine, phosphate and albumin.

Intervention: 0.9% saline administration (Other)

Low-chloride solution A

Experimental

Patients will receive two boluses of 10 and 20 ml/kg of Ringer's lactate in two different moments after at least 1 hour from each other. Plasma arterial blood gas (ABG) and electrolytes, along with plasmatic creatinine, albumin and phosphate will be measured immediately before and five minutes after fluid boluses. Urinary electrolytes (Na, K, Cl) will be measured immediately before fluid bolus and after one hour from fluid administration along with ABG and plasmatic electrolytes and creatinine, phosphate and albumin.

Intervention: Ringer's lactate administration (Other)

Very low-chloride solution

Experimental

Patients will receive two boluses of 10 and 20 ml/kg of a plasmalyte-like solution (namely soluzione elettrolitica reintegrante [SER]) in two different moments after at least 1 hour from each other. Plasma arterial blood gas (ABG) and electrolytes, along with plasmatic creatinine, albumin and phosphate will be measured immediately before and five minutes after fluid boluses. Urinary electrolytes (Na, K, Cl) will be measured immediately before fluid bolus and after one hour from fluid administration along with ABG and plasmatic electrolytes and creatinine, phosphate and albumin.

Intervention: Plasmalyte-like solution administration (Other)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

pH modification

Time Frame: Surgery

The primary outcome of this physiological study is to evaluate, in vivo, the effect of crystalloid administration with different SID on acid base equilibrium, in particular pH variations will be considered.

Secondary Outcomes

  • SID and plasmatic weak acid (A tot) variations measured in mEq/L(Surgery)
  • Urinary SID modification (mEq/L) after crystalloids administration with different SID and chloride load(Surgery)
