Scientific titleProspective randomised controlled trial of post-operative optimisation of oxygen delivery in patients undergoing major non-cardiac surgery to reduce morbidity
Study acronymPOM-O
Study objectivesEnhancing oxygen delivery to a pre-determined target immediately post-operatively reduces post-operative morbidity and length of hospital stay in high risk surgical patients.
Ethics approval(s)Outer South East London REC - South London REC Office (4), 29/12/2009, ref: 09/H0805/58
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedPost-operative morbidity
InterventionPatients randomised to undergo fluid with/without inotropic support (goal-directed therapy) to achieve pre-defined oxygen delivery target for 6 hours immediately post-operatively.
Intervention typeProcedure/Surgery
Primary outcome measureReduction in post-operative morbidity on day 3 post-operatively as defined by the Post-Operative Morbidity Survey (POMS)
Secondary outcome measuresMeasured pre-operatively and at 1, 2, 5 and 8 days post-operatively:
1. Immune, bioenergetic, microcirculatory and cellular correlates associated with development of post-operative morbidity
2. Length of hospital stay
Overall study start date01/03/2010
Completion date01/03/2013
