A Pilot Study Assessing a Closed-Loop System for Goal-Directed Fluid Therapy in Abdominal Surgery Patients
Archive ouverte
International audience. Background: This prospective multicentre pilot study of patients scheduled for elective major abdominal surgery aimed to validate the fluid challenge (FC) proposed by the closed-loop (CL) system via anaesthesiologist assessment. Methods: This was a phase II trial consisting of two inclusion stages (SIMON method). Each FC (250 mL saline solution for 10 min) proposed by the CL was systematically validated by the anaesthesiologist who could either confirm or refuse the FC or give FC without the CL system. A ≥ 95% agreement between the CL and the anaesthesiologist was considered acceptable. Results: The study was interrupted after interim analysis of the first 19 patients (10 men, median age = 61 years, median body mass index = 26 kg/m2). The anaesthesiologists accepted 165/205 (80%) of fluid boluses proposed by the CL. Median cardiac index (CI) was 2.9 (interquartile: IQ (2.7; 3.4) L/min/m2) and the median coefficient of variation (CV) for CI was 13% (10; 17). Fifteen out of nineteen patients (79%) had a mean CI > 2.5 L/min/m2 or spent > 85% surgery time with pulse pressure variation < 13%. No adverse events related to the CL were reported. Conclusion: In this study of patients scheduled for elective major abdominal surgery, the agreement between CL and anaesthesiologist for giving fluid challenge was 80%, suggesting that CL cannot replace the physician but could help in decision making.
