The Global End-Diastolic Volume (GEDV) Could Be More Appropiate to Fluid Management Than Central Venous Pressure (CVP) During Closed Hyperthermic Intrabdominal Chemotherapy with CO2 Circulation

ABSTRACTBackground: Closed hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) may increase abdominal pressure and effects of hemodynamic changes due to maintenance hyperthermia. Our aim was to analyze the safety and effectiveness of our closed technique with CO2 circulation in management fluid status and hemodynamic parameters by means of cardiac preload control measured by Global End Diastolic Values (GEDV) and a gas exchanger. Material and Methods: A Pilot Clinical Study that included 18 advanced ovarian cancer patients undergoing citoreductive surgery and HIPEC. We used a closed-perfusion system (PRS Combat®) that includes CO2 circulation and a gas exchanger. Transpulmonary thermodilutions and hemodynamic measurements (PiCCO2®) were performed after citoreductive surgery (Pre-HIPEC); At half time of the HIPEC (Intra-HIPEC); After HIPEC (Post-HIPEC). Results: No significant hemodynamic measurements changes in the three thermodilutions values of Cardiac Index (CI) (p = 0.227), Global End Diastolic Values (...
