What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study looks at whether a simple neck ultrasound can help doctors predict if a patient needs more fluids during major abdominal surgery. About 84 adults having planned abdominal surgery will take part. The goal is to see if changes in blood flow in the carotid artery can reliably show who will benefit from extra fluids, potentially reducing complications.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Only patients scheduled for major abdominal surgery with an expected high intraoperative fluid turnover will be eligble for the study. Patients with any kind of crdiac arrhythmia, valve diseases, heart failure or carotid stenosis will be excluded from the study to avoid measurement errors and bias for the hemodynamic parameters such as pulse pressure variation, stroke volume and carotid doppler peak velocity.

Ages

Anyone
