Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Volume of intravenous fluid infused intra-operatively

    To assess whether the presence of a central venous catheter influences the volume of intravenous fluid infused intra-operatively

    Intra-operatively (from induction to leaving theatre)

  • Volume of intravenous fluid infused post-operatively

    To assess whether the presence of a central venous catheter influences the volume of intravenous fluid infused post-operatively

    The first 12 hours post-operatively (commencing from the arrival on the critical care unit, until the end of the 12th post-operative hour)

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Length of Intensive Care Unit Stay

    From admission to intensive care, until stepdown to the ward (and until the expected end of study on 30th April 2020)

  • Volume of blood product infused peri-operatively

    From induction of anaesthesia until the end of the 12th post-operative hour

  • Mean dose of required vasopressor agents

    From induction of anaesthesia until the end of the 12th post-operative hour

  • Use of cardiac output (flow-monitoring) equipment

    From induction of anaesthesia until the end of the 12th post-operative hour

  • Length of hospital stay

    From the day of the procedure until discharge from the hospital (and until the expected end of study on 30th April 2020)

Study Arms (2)

No CVC inserted

Patients undergoing major elective colorectal resection without central venous catheter inserted pre-operatively

CVC inserted

Patients undergoing major elective colorectal resection with a central venous catheter inserted pre-operatively

Device: Central Venous Catheter

Interventions

Insertion of a central venous catheter insertion pre-operatively (electively)

CVC inserted

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

  • Patients undergoing emergency surgery
  • Those not admitted electively to critical care directly from theatre
  • Those patients that do not undergo any bowel resection
  • Patients in whom central venous catheter insertion is as an emergency peri- operatively
