简要总结
For more than 15 years, traditional fasting regimens prior to scheduled surgeries have been called into question, yet prolonged preoperative fasting remains common practice. While prolonged fasting is aimed at reducing the risk of pulmonary aspiration, prolonged fasting is uncomfortable, has an inconsistent effect on gastric volumes and acidity and may lead to dehydration without a clear reduction in the incidence of aspiration. Fasting by itself decreases hepatic glycogen stores, induces a state of insulin resistance and impairs cardiovascular function. Yet, prolonged preoperative fasting remains common.
Preoperative oral carbohydrate (CHO) consumption improves insulin sensitivity and decreases the time to return of gut function without increasing gastric volumes or acidity compared to other clear liquids and fasting. Previous work has shown oral CHO consumption improves patient well-being to a greater degree than placebo drink (water or flavored water) and fasted controls. Oral CHO also outperforms a similar volume of intravenous glucose supplementation. These benefits have reduced hospital stays in a variety of surgical models by as much as 20%. Further, preoperative CHO supplementation improved postoperative patient hunger, thirst, anxiety, fatigue and nausea.
The purpose of this research study is to determine if drinking a high carbohydrate beverage before cesarean section surgery can improve patient well-being, compared to patients who drink a low carbohydrate beverage or fast before surgery.
详细描述
The study hopes to determine if either of two different oral beverages (a higher CHO concentration versus a lower CHO concentration) is superior to routine fasting in terms of preoperative well-being among patients presenting for scheduled cesarean section. Preoperative well-being will be determined by a composite of visual analog scale scores aimed at assessing hunger, thirst, anxiety, fatigue and nausea on the morning of surgery.
Women will be recruited from one of two outpatient obstetric clinics, University of Florida (UF) Health Women's Center - Medical Plaza or UF Health Women's Center. Women presenting for scheduled cesarean section will be provided with an opportunity to participate. Then the women will be randomized into one of three groups: oral carbohydrate beverage (group CHO), re-hydration beverage of an equal volume (group R) or fasted controls (group F). All subjects who consent to participation will have the following recorded: height, weight, age, indication for cesarean section, surgeon, and number of prior cesarean sections.

Fasted Controls
Subjects assigned to this group will fast for ≥8 hours prior to surgery.
结局指标
主要结局
Change in preoperative well-being assessment from baseline to one hour using the 100 millimeter (mm) visual analogue scale.
时间窗: Change from baseline to one hour
100 mm visual analogue scales for hunger, thirst, anxiety, fatigue and nausea administered on the morning of surgery prior to morning beverage consumption and 60 minutes after the beverage. All measurements will be assessed using the same scale starting at 0 to 100mm with 0 being the worst and 100 being the best and average being 85.
次要结局
- Number of participants admitted to maternal intensive care unit between the groups(Up to 15 days)
- Number of days in the hospital for each participant between the groups(Up to 15 days)
- Number of neonates diagnosed with an infection between the groups.(Baseline)
- Changes between the maternal groups assessed by the mean arterial pressure (MAP) recordings in every 5 minute period(At time of surgery to the conclusion)
- Number of postoperative infections between the groups(Up to 15 days)
- Neonates with plasma glucose level of less than 45 mg/dL between the groups(Baseline)
- Number of neonates on ventilation for 6 hours or greater between the groups(6 hours)
- Number of neonates with a 5 minute Apgar score less than 7 between the groups(5 minutes)
- Number of neonates admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) between the groups(Baseline)
