Official title
Intraoperative Circulation Phenotyping to Guide Vasoactive Medication in Kidney Transplant Recipients
Overview
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if vasopressin improves the body's response to intravenous fluids during kidney transplantation in patients who have relaxed blood vessels. Researchers will compare the results of vasopressin to those who received calcium chloride.
Detailed description
This prospective, single-arm interventional study evaluates a phenotype-guided vasoactive protocol during adult kidney transplantation. Intraoperative monitoring includes pulse contour analysis and repeated FPC testing. Based on predefined phenotype criteria, vasoactive support is assigned as follows: vasopressin infusion for Hyperdynamic physiology, norepinephrine infusion for Mixed Physiology, calcium chloride boluses and/or low-dose dopamine infusion for Poor Contractility, and fluid-guided management for Normal physiology.
Interventions
- Drug Phenotype-Guided Vasoactive Management
Recipients undergo intraoperative circulation phenotyping using pulse contour monitoring and flow-pressure coupling testing. Vasoactive support is assigned according to phenotype: vasopressin infusion for Hyperdynamic physiology, norepinephrine infusion for Mixed Physiology, calcium chloride and/or low-dose dopamine for Poor Contractility, and fluid-guided support for Normal physiology.
Primary outcome measures
- Positive Flow-Pressure Coupling Proportion in Hyperdynamic Phenotype as measured by pulse contour analysis on the Edwards Hemosphere [Time frame: Intraoperative (from induction to end of surgery)]
Secondary outcome measures (8)
- Characterization of flow-pressure coupling in Normal, Mixed Physiology, and Poor-contractility phenotypes as measured with pulse contour analysis on the Edwards Hemosphere [Time frame: intraoperative]
- Analysis of intraoperative cardiac index (CI) measured with pulse contour analysis on the Edwards Hemosphere [Time frame: intraoperative]
- Protocol Adherence [Time frame: Intraoperative]
- Analysis of Intraoperative Systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI) measured with pulse contour analysis on the Edwards Hemosphere [Time frame: intraoperative]
- Analysis of Intraoperative mean arterial pressure (MAP) measured with pulse contour analysis on the Edwards Hemosphere [Time frame: intraoperative]
- Analysis of Intraoperative Contractility (dP/dt) measured with pulse contour analysis on the Edwards Hemosphere. [Time frame: intraoperative]
- Analysis of Intraoperative EaDyn (PPV/SVV) with pulse contour analysis on the Edwards Hemosphere [Time frame: intraoperative]
- Recording of delayed graft function, defined as the need for dialysis within the first week following kidney transplantation [Time frame: Postoperative day 0 to postoperative day 7]
