Perioperative Hemodynamic Optimization Using the Photoplethysmography in Colorectal Surgery

The purpose of this study is to determine whether hemodynamic optimization with photoplethysmography (ClearSight, Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA) during colorectal surgery could decrease the incidence of perioperative complications.

Key information

About this study

All patients received the photoplethysmography monitoring, but the monitor was blinded in the control group.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Age> 18 years
  • Colorectal surgery

Exclusion criteria

  • Pregnant women
  • Black skin
  • Chronic renal insufficiency (MDRD <30 ml/min)

Treatment and study plan

Photoplethysmography

Device

Use Photoplethysmography for hemodynamic optimization during colorectal perioperative period

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of patients presenting at least one complication after colorectal surgery

    Time frame: Up to 28 days after surgery (length of hospital stay)

    Two independent experts defined the presence of complication using an a priori classification.

Secondary outcomes

  1. All complications happening after colorectal surgery

    Time frame: Up to 28 days after surgery (length of hospital stay)

  2. Real length of hospital stay

    Time frame: Up to 28 days after surgery (length of hospital stay)

  3. Perioperative mortality

    Time frame: 28 days after surgery

Other outcomes

  1. Medico economic evaluation of cost of treatment

    Time frame: Up to 28 days after surgery (length of hospital stay)

    Medico economic evaluation of photoplethysmography use will be assessed with a specific unit of measure, using cost of treatment.
