NCT02988219

Brief Summary

This study evaluates the incidence of cardiac arrhythmias during the perioperative period in patients undergoing open kidney cancer surgery in the lateral position. All the participants will be randomly allocated to receive general (Group G) or combined epidural/general anaesthesia (Group G/E). The anaesthetic technique is standardized. The Holter monitor will be applied at the evening before the surgery, tracing continuously for a period of 24 hours (7PM-7PM)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of Perioperative Cardiac Arrhythmias Evaluated by a Continuous ECG Holter Monitoring in the Perioperative Period

    The investigator evaluates the incidence of cardiac arrhythmias, the type of arrhythmias and whether additional interventions were needed to treat them Arrhythmias observed: tachycardia \>100 bpm bradycardia \< 50 bpm pause (P-P interval \> 2 seconds) ventricular extrasystoles (VE) \> 1000/ 24 hours supraventricular extrasystoles (SVE) \>200/24 hours

    60 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The Prevention of Cardiac Arrhythmias Occurence by Epidural Anesthesia Added to General Anesthesia Evaluated by a Number and Type of Arrhythmias Observed

    60 months
