Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7292   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    D.8 Information on Placebo
    E. General Information on the Trial
    E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation
    E.1.1Medical condition(s) being investigated
    hemodynamic stability of patients undergoing major surgery
    E.1.1.1Medical condition in easily understood language
    patients undergoing major surgery
    E.1.1.2Therapeutic area Diseases [C] - Cardiovascular Diseases [C14]
    MedDRA Classification
    E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    In this study we want to clarify whether a balanced type fluid solution for perioperative fluid management of patients receiving major abdominal surgery is associated with a lower incidence of need for catecholamines for hemodynamic stability than use of isotonic saline.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    balanced infusion solutions results in a lower volume of fluid needed to achieve cardiovascular stability, lower total dosage of catecholamines as well as lower frequency of unexpected intensive care unit transfers (ICU) than with administration of isotonic saline. Additionally, we will evaluate whether use of an acetate buffered balanced infusion solutions results in lower incidence rates of metabolic acidosis and electrolyte disorders than use of isotonic saline.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    All patients scheduled for open elective major abdominal surgery and expected to last a minimum of 2 hours will be included in the study.

    Major general surgery includes complex visceral resection (surgery involving the liver, esophagus, pancreas or multiple organs), partial or total colectomy, stomach surgery, small bowel resection, open gall-bladder resection, splenektomie, adrenalektomie and regional lymphnode dissection. Major urological or gynecological surgery includes renal transplant, nephrectomie, visceral resection (ureterectomy, bladder resection, retroperitoneal tumor resection, exenteration), cytoreductive surgery (tumor debulking), radical hysterectomy, radical prostatectomy and open hysterectomy.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    - Patients younger than 18 years of age
    - Patients unable to give informed consent
    - Pregnancy or breastfeeding

    - Any signs of infection or sepsis
    - Any contraindication for oesophageal Doppler monitoring (oesophageal and aortic pathology, planned oesophageal resection)
    - Patients with additional epidural anesthesia are excluded from the study if epidural anesthesia is planned to be used for analgesia intraoperatively.
    - Patients not able to understand the consenting information without help of a translator are excluded from the study.
