Scientific titleEfficacy of intraoperatory optimisation of fluids guided with transoesophageal doppler monitorisation: a multicentre randomised controlled trial
Study objectivesThe intraoperatory optimisation of fluids guided with transoesophageal doppler monitorisation allows a decrease in the morbidity rate and resources comsumption.
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedHigh risk surgical procedures under general anaesthesia
InterventionIntervention group: transoesophageal doppler monitorisation
Control group: conventional monitorisation

The intervention group consists of cardiovascular continuous oesophageal Doppler monitoring during the surgical intervention, while in the control group the cardiovascular function is estimated measuring a series of haemodynamic-related variables such as arterial pressure, temperature or diuresis.

The follow up of both arms are observed until the hospital discharge for short term outcomes and by a clinical records review until the sixth month after the hospital discharge for long term outcomes.
Intervention typeProcedure/Surgery
Primary outcome measure(s)

Post-operative short term complications

Key secondary outcome measure(s)

Measured all along the hospital stay:
1. Hospital length of stay
2. Morbidity and mortality, also measured at the sixth month after hospital discharge

Completion date31/12/2011
