The effect of goal-directed hemodynamic therapy on clinical outcomes in patients undergoing radical cystectomy: a randomized controlled trial.
BMC Anesthesiology 2023 October 10
BACKGROUND: This study investigated the effects of intraoperative goal-directed hemodynamic therapy (GDHT) on postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing open radical cystectomy.
METHODS: This prospective, single-center, randomized controlled trial included 82 patients scheduled for open radical cystectomy between September 2018 and November 2021. The GDHT group (n = 39) received the stroke volume index- and cardiac index-based hemodynamic management using advanced hemodynamic monitoring, while the control group (n = 36) received the standard care under the discretion of attending anesthesiologists during surgery. The primary outcome was the incidence of a composite of in-hospital postoperative complications during hospital stays.
RESULTS: A total of 75 patients were included in the final analysis. There was no significant difference in the incidence of in-hospital postoperative complications (28/39 [71.8%] vs. 30/36 [83.3%], risk difference [95% CI], -0.12 [-0.30 to 0.07], P = 0.359) between the groups. The amounts of intraoperative fluid administered were similar between the groups (2700 [2175-3250] vs. 2900 [1950-3700] ml, median difference [95% CI] -200 [-875 to 825], P = 0.714). The secondary outcomes, including the incidence of seven major postoperative complications, duration of hospital stay, duration of intensive care unit stay, and grade of complications, were comparable between the two groups. Trends in postoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate, serum creatinine, and C-reactive protein did not differ significantly between the two groups.
CONCLUSIONS: Intraoperative GDHT did not reduce the incidence of postoperative in-hospital complications during the hospital stay in patients who underwent open radical cystectomy.
