Official title

Near-Infrared Spectroscopy for Intraoperative Restriction of Fluids Trial A Prospective Randomized Study of Near-infrared Spectroscopy Directed Fluid Therapy vs Standard Fluid Therapy in Patients Undergoing Open Elective Colorectal Surgery

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the InSpectra StO2 Monitor can safely guide the amount of fluid needed during colorectal surgery. The study hypothesis is that intraoperative fluid limitation can be safely accomplished when guided by StO2 monitoring, and that this fluid restriction regimen will result in a reduction in postoperative morbidity when compared to standard monitoring and fluid therapy.
