Crystalloid versus Colloid for Intraoperative Goal-directed Fluid Therapy Using a Closed-loop System: A Randomized, Double-blinded, Controlled Trial in Major Abdominal Surgery.

TL;DR: Under the study conditions, a colloid-based goal-directed fluid therapy was associated with fewer postoperative complications than a crystalloid one and this beneficial effect may be related to a lower intraoperative fluid balance when a balanced colloid was used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term Impact of Crystalloid versus Colloid Solutions on Renal Function and Disability-free Survival after Major Abdominal Surgery.

TL;DR: In patients undergoing major open abdominal surgery, there was no evidence of a statistically significant difference in long-term renal function between a balanced hydroxyethyl starch and a balanced crystalloid solution used as part of intraoperative goal-directed fluid therapy, although there was only limited power to rule out a clinically significant difference.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fully Automated Anesthesia and Fluid Management Using Multiple Physiologic Closed-Loop Systems in a Patient Undergoing High-Risk Surgery.

TL;DR: The purpose of this case report was to evaluate the feasibility of automated anesthesia and fluid management based on a combination of physiological variables (bispectral index, stroke volume, and stroke volume variations) using 2 independent closed-loop systems.
