NCT ID: NCT03245372

Last Updated: 2021-10-20

Results Overview

Recruitment status

COMPLETED

Study phase

NA

Target enrollment

31 participants

Primary outcome timeframe

During the total duration of the surgery, on average 4 hours. We include the time from the start of maintenance of general anesthesia to the moment of extubation of the patient.

Participant Flow

31 patients signed informed consent, but there was a pre-randomization exclusion (a patient was selected and signed informed consent) because surgeons decided to carry out a less aggressive surgery from the start (atypical lung resection instead of lobectomy). That happened in only one case.

Measure
Standard Care
Basic intraoperative hemodynamic objectives Standard care: Heart rate 60-100 beats per minute, mean arterial pressure 65 mm Hg, serum lactate 2 mmol/L, oxygen saturation 95 % (90 % during one lung ventilation).
Goal Directed Therapy
Target value is a cardiac index equal or superior to 2.2 l/min/m2. Goal directed therapy: The hemodynamic algorithm will be based on systolic volume index and fluid challenges. FloTrac sensor (this sensor connects to any existing arterial catheter and provides advanced hemodynamic parameters through pulse contour analysis) and EV1000 clinical platform (clinical platform from Edwards Lifesciences that provides advanced hemodynamic monitoring) will be used to calculate cardiac index and systolic volume index.
