Intraoperative Optimisation of Tissue Oxygenation

Higk Risk Surgery Clinical Trial

Official title: Intraoperative Monitoring and Optimisation of Tissue Oxygenation In High-Risk Surgical Patients for Reduction of Postoperative Complications: a Pilot Study

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Monitoring and optimizing tissue oxygenation (StO2) in high-risk surgery and/or high-risk surgical patients may decrease the risk of postoperative complications.

Tissue hypoxia occurs frequently during high-risk surgery in high-risk patients. The investigators want to see if an algorithm aimed at optimizing intraoperative tissue oxygenation reduces perioperative complications as well as length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU LOS), 28-day mortality, and the duration of mechanical ventilation in these patients.
