Completed
Conditions
To Evaluate Clinical Results, Insulin Resistance and Inflammatory Response to Trauma in Morbidly Obese Patients
Interventions
Other: ACERTO protocol vs Traditional care
Registration Number
NCT02113995
Lead Sponsor
Cuiaba University
Brief Summary

Background To evaluate clinical results, insulin resistance and inflammatory response to trauma in morbidly obese patients undergoing laparoscopic Sleeve gastrectomy who received either traditional preoperative care or treatment following the ACERTO protocol.

Detailed Description

Methods The population of the study consisted of morbidly obese patients, who were operated on with the Sleeve procedure, from Cuiaba, MT, between April and October 2012. We studied the inflammatory response and insulin resistance by measuring levels of glucose, insulin, Homa IR, reactive C protein, albumin, pre-albumin, alpha 1 acid glicoprotein, interleukin 6 and glycosylated hemoglobin. We also studied hydration, nausea and vomiting, hypertension, and length of hospital stay.

Traditional careACERTO protocol vs Traditional careThe analgesia in the postoperative period of the group control was performed with dipyrone, tramadol hydrochloride, and morphine. The prophylaxis of nausea and vomiting with dexamethasone 8 mg in the beginning of the anesthesia and the metoclopramide at the end of the surgery. During the anesthetic induction antibiotic prophylaxis (cefazolin 3 grams/day for 2 days) was administrated. The control group were submitted to the protocol of traditional fasting with at least 8 hours. Patients in this group received 1 to 2 liters of crystalloid fluid (ringer lactate) in the intraoperative, and they received 3 to 4 liters of crystalloid fluids (ringer lactate, saline 0.9% and/or dextrose 5%). In the immediate postoperative, 2 to 3 liters in the first day of postoperative and, finally, 1 to 2 liters in the second day of the postoperative.
ACERTOACERTO protocol vs Traditional carePatients received 400 ml of a beverage containing water and 50 g of maltodextrin 6 hours before the operation. They received orally extra 200 ml of this beverage containing water and 25 g of maltodextrin 3 hours before the operation. Regarding the intravenous fluids, they received 1 to 1.5 liter of crystalloid fluids (ringer lactate) in the intraoperative. In the immediate postoperative they were programmed to receive 2 liters of crystalloid fluids (ringer lactate) and 1 to 2 liters in the first day of the postoperative period. The venous hydration was suspended as soon as they started to drink liquids. Prophylaxis of nausea and vomiting with dexamethasone 8 mg at the beginning of the anesthesia and ondansetron 4-8 mg after the surgery. In the postoperative period we utilized analgesics such as dipyrone and ketorolac and, if necessary, low doses of morphine and antiemetics like ondansetron.
