Brief Summary
Study Design: Prospective observational study Study Location: Liverpool Hospital Intensive Care Unit, South Western Sydney Local Health District, Sydney, Australia. Target study size: 100 patients Ethics: Approved by the local Human Research and Ethics Council (HREC) at Liverpool Hospital (LPOOL) as a Low Negligible Risk (LNR) project \[HREC/LNR/14/LPOOL/295, HREC/LNR/15/LPOOL47, HREC/LNR/14/LPOOL/150\] Participants: Post cardiac surgical patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit between March-October 2016 Aims:
- 1.to determine the descriptive and predictive value of variables (outlined below) related to oxygen delivery/consumption in regards to the effects of intravascular volume expansion
- 2.to assess correlations between central and peripheral variables (outlined below) relevant to oxygen delivery/consumption
- 3.to assess correlations between a set of variables (outline below) and patient centred outcomes in ICU and in hospital
- 4.Tissue oxygen saturation by peripheral Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS)
- 5.Common carotid arterial Doppler
- 6.Arterial/mixed venous/central venous blood gas analyses
- 7.Haemodynamic parameters
- 8.Organ support measures
- 9.ICU admission (within 30 minutes)
- 10.Before administration of a fluid bolus
- 11.After administration of a fluid bolus
- 12.6 hours after ICU admission
- 13.Morning of first postoperative day (12-24 hours)
- 14.the response to intravascular volume expansion
- 15.ICU mortality, morbidity and length of stay and hospital mortality and length of stay
- 16.Clinical data are collected bedside using an electronic case record form
- 17.Descriptive statistics
- 18.Paired and unpaired comparative
- 19.Correlative and predictive statistics

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Fluid bolus responsiveness
Fluid responsiveness will be determined by any increase in cardiac output (continuous outcome) or by a 10-15% increase in cardiac output (dichotomous outcome) following bolus volume expansion
Approximately 30 minutes
Volume management responsiveness
Responders will be defined as patients with an improvement (change towards normal physiological values) following cumulative volume expansion in any variable(s) used to assess oxygen delivery/consumption balance
Approximately 6 hours
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Morbidity
At ICU discharge, an average of 4 days
Mortality
Up to 3 months
Eligibility Criteria
All adult patients electively admitted to the Intensive Care Unit following cardiac surgery
You may qualify if:
- Admitted following elective cardiac surgery
- Adult (\>18 years of age)
- Pulmonary artery, central venous and arterial catheters inserted
You may not qualify if:
- Emergency Patients (surgery immediately or within 12 hours of admission to hospital)
- Children (\< 18 years of age)
- Patients admitted to ICU with ongoing extracorporeal circulatory support
- Patients re-admitted to ICU within same index hospital admission
