Official title: Effect Of Standard Versus Restricted Fluid Therapy Guided By Electric Cardiometry On Tissue Perfuison In Robotic Prostaectomy: A Randomized Controlled Study
Run by Cairo University · NCT07626151 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study tests whether using an electrical cardiometry device to guide fluid administration during robotic prostatectomy improves patient care compared with a standard fluid approach.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Male patients undergoing robotic-assisted prostatectomy with ASA physical status I–III.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with ASA IV or higher, BMI above 40, severe renal disease, prior renal surgery, or decompensated cardiac disease may not benefit and could be at higher risk.

What this trial studies
This interventional trial compares two fluid-management strategies during robotic-assisted prostatectomy: liberal versus restricted fluid administration guided by electrical cardiometry-derived measurements. Electrical cardiometry is used to estimate stroke volume variation and guide intraoperative fluid decisions. The goal is to optimize tissue perfusion while minimizing risks from both fluid overload and under-resuscitation. The study leverages a non-invasive monitoring method common in perioperative care to personalize fluid therapy. Conducted at Cairo University Hospitals under a single lead sponsor, it targets adult male patients undergoing this surgery and excludes those with high surgical risk or significant renal or cardiac disease.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, using electrical cardiometry to tailor fluid therapy could reduce complications related to fluid imbalance and improve recovery after robotic prostatectomy.
How similar studies have gone: Previous studies using dynamic hemodynamic monitoring to guide fluid therapy have shown mixed but encouraging results; this trial applies the approach specifically to robotic prostatectomy.
