Effects of fluid infusion rates on blood circulation during surgery
Official title: The Impact of Intra-operative Fluid Infusion Rate on Hemodilution and Microcirculation Prospective Observational Pilot Study
Run by University Hospital Hradec Kralove · NCT05606536 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study tests how different rates of fluid given during surgery can improve blood flow and oxygen delivery to tissues for patients undergoing elective surgeries with little blood loss.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include patients undergoing elective recumbent and laparoscopic surgeries with minimal expected blood loss.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients experiencing significant blood loss over 250 ml or those requiring hemodynamic support with noradrenaline will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This study investigates the impact of intraoperative fluid therapy on microcirculation during elective surgeries with minimal blood loss. It aims to optimize fluid infusion rates to enhance oxygen supply to tissues while minimizing hemodilution caused by endothelial glycocalyx damage. The research will analyze flow parameters in microcirculation based on different fluid infusion rates, providing insights into the optimal management of fluid therapy in surgical settings.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved fluid management strategies during surgery, enhancing patient outcomes and recovery.
How similar studies have gone: While the approach of optimizing fluid therapy is established, the specific focus on microcirculation parameters related to infusion rates is relatively novel and has not been extensively tested.
