Abstract

Objectives: To compare postoperative arterial lactate level, as well as hemodynamic parameters and clinical outcomes, between patients undergoing endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) who were managed with either stroke volume variation (SVV) or central venous pressure (CVP) protocol for fluid optimization. Methods: This is a prospective double-blinded randomized trial. Sixty adult patients underwent elective EVAR, both abdominal and thoracic surgeries in two cardiac centers (Queen Sirikit Heart Center of the Northeast and Srinagarind Hospital, Khon Kaen University). All patients were randomized into two groups with 30 patients each. Intraoperatively, fluid optimization in group CVP was managed using the CVP guided protocol, while the SVV protocol was used for group SVV. Results: Group SVV had a lower arterial lactate level immediately after surgery (1.2±0.6 vs 1.8±1.0 mg/dL, P=0.044). Over the first 48 h postoperatively, there were no significant differences in lactate or creatinine between groups. There was an inverse correlation between SVV and the cardiac index (CI) and between CVP and CI. No correlation was found between SVV and CVP. Conclusion: Use of the SVV over against the CVP guidance for fluid optimization in patients undergoing EVAR results in a lower arterial lactate level. SVV has a good inverse correlation with CI which confirms that SVV is a useful guide for fluid therapy while CVP has no correlation with SVV and shows a negative instead of positive correlation with CI, and thus should not be used as a guide for fluid optimization.
