Early Goal Directed Therapy vs Standard Protocol for Hemodynamic Management in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Fluid and inotropic/vasoactive management protocol for Postoperative Outcome and ICU Stay. Completed, enrolled 80 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Early goal directed therapy (EGDT) based on information from arterial waveform derived cardiac output (APCO) FloTrac/EV1000 system has been proved to improve postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing major surgery. This system, however, has the limitation to be applied in open-chest surgery, especially cardiac surgery. The efficiency of FloTrac/EV1000 system to improve postoperative outcomes in cardiac surgery is still inconclusive. Hypothesis: Intraoperative management in patients undergoing cardiac surgery guided by FloTrac/EV1000 system, compared with conventional protocol, results in better clinical outcomes. Primary outcomes: Immediate postoperative inotropic/vasoactive drugs requirement. Methods: Adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery will be randomized into 2 groups: EGDT group managed by FloTrac/EV1000 system and Control group managed by conventional protocol. Outcome analyses: Compare the number of inotropic/vasoactive drugs requirement at the end of surgery, as well as intensive care unit (ICU) stay between both groups.

Interventions
GDT protocol: keep SVV 10-13% and give fluid when SVV \> 13%, give inotropic to maintain CI 2.5-4 L/min/m2, give vasoactive drugs to maintain SVRI 1,900-2,400 dynes-sec/cm-5/m2 Control protocol: keep CVP 8-12 mmHG and give fluid when CVP \< 8 mmHg, give inotropic/vasoactive to maintain normal blood pressure and heart rate
