Overview

Tissue oximetry obtained from peripheral muscle measures the state of tissue oxygenation of various organs and, as already widely described in the literature, can be used to measure the state of kidney's tissue oxygenation. However, there is no evidence in the existing scientific literature on the use of muscle tissue oximetry in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery for ovarian cancer with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

The primary objective of our study is to evaluate whether there is a correlation between average intraoperative muscle tissue oximetry below 65% (a value which is considered critical in the literature for the resulting cellular damage) and postoperative renal damage in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for ovarian cancer.

Description

Tissue oximetry obtained from peripheral muscle can be used to measure the state of kidney's tissue oxygenation.

50 Adult female patients ASA 1-2 undergoing cytoreductive surgery with laparoscopic or laparotomy technique (for ovarian cancer) associated with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy will be enrolled.

The primary objective of our study is to evaluate whether there is a correlation between average intraoperative muscle tissue oximetry below 65% (a value which is considered critical in the literature for the resulting cellular damage) and postoperative renal damage (according to the AKIN and KIDGO classification) in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for ovarian cancer.

Secondary objectives are:

  • describe the variation in muscle tissue oximetry and hemodynamic parameters (systolic, mean, diastolic blood pressure) during cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy .
  • describe the variation in renal function values (blood urea nitrogen, creatinine) and serum electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloremia, calcemia) in the post-operative period (from the first to the seventh postoperative day).

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • American Society Anesthesiologists (ASA) Classification 1-2
  • Cytoreductive surgery for ovarian cancer with laparoscopic or laparotomic technique with Hypertermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Age < 18 years
  • ASA > or = 3
  • Cytoreductive surgery without hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
