NCT07304947

Brief Summary

This prospective randomized controlled trial evaluates whether individualized cardiac index-guided intraoperative hemodynamic management reduces postoperative transient ischemic episodes in pediatric patients undergoing encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis (EDAS) for Moyamoya disease. Patients are randomized 1:1 to goal-directed fluid therapy based on baseline cardiac index versus standard arterial pressure-based management. The primary outcome is the incidence of transient ischemic episodes during hospitalization.

Study Arms (2)

Cardiac index guided hemodynamic management

EXPERIMENTAL
Procedure: Cardiac Index-Guided Hemodynamic Management

Blood pressure guided hemodynamic management

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Procedure: Blood Pressure-Guided Standard Hemodynamic Management

Interventions

In the experimental arm, intraoperative hemodynamic management is guided by each patient's baseline cardiac index. Cardiac output is continuously monitored using the LiDCO system after arterial line insertion. Baseline cardiac index is calibrated using transthoracic echocardiography, and intraoperative fluids and vasoactive agents are adjusted to maintain cardiac index within ±20% of baseline. Standard anesthesia monitoring is provided to all patients.

Cardiac index guided hemodynamic management

In the control arm, intraoperative hemodynamic management follows conventional blood pressure-guided practice. After arterial line placement, the LiDCO device remains connected but the display is concealed during anesthesia. Fluids and vasoactive medications are adjusted according to standard MAP-based management. Standard anesthesia monitoring is provided to all patients.
