Scientific titleGoal Directed Therapy (GDT) in hip replacement: a single-centre randomised controlled trial
Study hypothesisGoal Directed Therapy during regional anaesthesia in primary hip arhtroplasty changes intraoperative fluid management and decreases postoperative morbidity.
Ethics approval(s)Direct Management Corporate University Hospital of Udine (Azienda Policlinico Universitario Gestione Diretta di Udine) approved on 12th March 2007 (ref Prot. 2007/8/A)
ConditionPrimary hip arthroplasty
InterventionAll patients will receive spinal anaesthesia was performed at the L3-L4 level with levobupivacaine 0.5% 15 mg.

CTRL group:
Patients randomised to the control group will receive Ringer lactate solution at 10 ml/kg/hour. 250 ml boluses of intra venous colloid will be administered to maintain blood pressure.

Goal Directed Therapy (GDT) group:
This group will be connected to the FloTrac/Vigileo (Edwards Lifesciences, CA, USA) haemodynamic monitoring system. Boluses of 250 ml of colloid will be administered until the stroke volume fails to further increase by a factor of 10%. If at this stage the DO2I is not greater than 600 ml/m2 then dobutamine will be started.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measure1. Intraoperative fluid management -fluid management will be recorded from the arrival to the anaesthetic room until discharge to the ward
2. Blood consumption will be recorded from arrival to the anaesthetic room until hospital discharge
Secondary outcome measuresPostoperative morbidity: assessed from discharge to the ward until hospital discharge by a modified postoperative morbidity survey (POMS)
