About

The purpose of this study is to help us learn what the best amount of fluid is that patients should receive during pancreas surgery. Patients will receive either the liberal fluid amount for this surgery or a restricted fluid amount.

Both amounts of fluid have been used safely in patients having similar surgeries. These amounts have not been compared in pancreatic surgery. The fluids regimens that will be given are not experimental.

This study will compare patients in the liberal and restricted fluid groups in terms of the nature of any surgical complications (problems)and recovery from surgery, including length of hospital stay.

331 participants in 2 patient groups

pts undergoing pancreatic resection Restrictive arm
Active Comparator group
Description:
All patients will receive Normosol or equivalent solution, 0.5 ml/kg/fasted hour IV (approximately from 8am to time of induction) during induction of anesthesia. All patients will then receive maintenance fluids consisting of Normosol or equivalent solution at 6 ml/kg/operative hour. After randomization occurs, those patients randomized to the Restricted Arm will continue to receive Normosol or equivalent solution at 6ml/kg/operative hour.
Treatment:
Other: restrictive perioperative fluid management
pts undergoing pancreatic resection Liberal arm
Active Comparator group
Description:
All patients will receive Normosol or equivalent solution, 0.5 ml/kg/fasted hour IV (approximately from midnight to time of induction) during induction of anesthesia. All patients will then receive maintenance fluids consisting of Normosol or equivalent solution at 6 ml/kg/operative hour. Those patients randomized to the Liberal Arm will receive an additional Normosol bolus or equivalent solution equal to (another) 1.5 ml/kg/fasted hour IV (to bring the total to 2 ml/kg/fasted hour) plus an additional bolus of Normosol or equivalent solution 6ml/kg/operative hour to bring the hourly rate to 12ml/kg/operative hour with a maximum of 1000 ml/operative hour.

Other: Liberal perioperative fluid management
