Intraoperative Goal-directed Fluid Management in Non-Obese and Obese Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Surgery
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Goal directed fluid therapy for Obesity. Completed, enrolled 90 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of the study is to compare non-obese patients (BMI≤ 30 kg/m2)versus obese patients (BMI\> 30 kg/m2) in regard of their respective needs for intraoperative fluid therapy during laparoscopic surgery. Specifically the investigators will test the hypothesis that subcutaneous tissue oxygenation (PsqO2)is increased in obese patients when fluid management is optimized by means of esophageal Doppler monitoring compared to obese patients undergoing standard fluid management. Furthermore the investigators will test the hypothesis that PsqO2 is decreased in obese patients undergoing conventional fluid therapy compared to non-obese patients when fluid management is optimized. Thus the investigators assume that PsqO2 is similar in obese and non-obese patients when fluid management is optimized in both groups.
