The Effect of Mannitol on the Serum Potassium During Craniotomy

Completed
Conditions
Hyperkalemia
Mannitol Adverse Reaction
Interventions
Other: Mannitol
Registration Number
NCT03161977
Lead Sponsor
The Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University
Brief Summary

This is an observational study designed to research the effect of mannitol on the concentration of intraoperative serum potassium in patients undergoing craniotomy, and to guide the safe use of mannitol during craniotomy.

Detailed Description

Patients were assigned to receive 20% mannitol (1g/kg) solution administered intravenously 15-20 minutes at the time of drilling skull.The serum potassium was measured by arterial blood gas analysis before infusion (T0), infusion finished (T1), 15min (T2), 30min (T3), 60min (T4) and 120min (T5) after infusion.
