NCT03599973

Brief Summary

The investigators will study the correlation between the lenght of the fasting before surgery and the need to replenish with intra-venous fluids in children, evaluated with 3 measures of the aortic Integral Time Velocity with transthoracic echocardiography.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Aortic VTI change

    Transthoracic echocardiography measures of the Time-Speed Interval in the aortic valve before fluid therapy (baseline) and after fluid therapy (20 ml/kg in 15 minutes).

    From baseline analysis (t=5 min after anesthesia induction), to the end of fluid therapy (t=20 min).

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Blood pressure change

    From baseline analysis (t=5 min after anesthesia induction), to the end of fluid therapy (t=20 min).

  • Legs-up maneuver

    From baseline analysis (t=5 min after anesthesia induction), to the end of legs-up maneuver (t = +/- 10 min).

  • Post-operative nausea and vomiting

    From arrival at PACU (end of surgery) until discharge from PACU (tipically after 1 to 2 hours after the arrival to the PACU)

Study Arms (1)

Patient

OTHER

One-arm study, where all patients are given the same standard fluidotherapy and anesthetic conditions to compare measures of Aortic VTI before and after the IV fluid.

Other: Plasmalyte A Viaflo

Interventions

Fluid therapy to be given according to the principle of 4-2-1 (4 ml of crystalloid fluid for each of the first 10 kg of weight (0-10 kg), 2 ml of crystalloid fluid for each of the second 10 kg of weight (11-20 kg) and 1 ml of crystalloid fluid for each kg of weight over 20.
