Test whether IV fluid rate affects small blood flow
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at whether changing how fast IV fluids are given during certain surgeries affects the body’s smallest blood vessels. You may be able to join if your surgery is planned and you meet safety limits.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for elective (planned) surgery while lying down
- Your surgery is done laparoscopically (through small openings with a camera)
- You can give informed consent (agree to join the study)
- Your surgery is not expected to have high blood loss (over 250 milliliters)
- You do not require medicines like noradrenaline to stabilize blood pressure during surgery

This trial studies whether giving children less fluid through a vein after serious injury helps them recover safely. Children are enrolled soon after arrival to the ICU so the team can compare outcomes between different fluid amounts.
This early-phase study tests whether giving a very small fluid dose can quickly show who will benefit from fluids in the emergency department. It focuses on people with signs of low blood pressure and poor circulation.
This trial tests how well the body responds to a fluid bolus in children who have just had heart surgery. It uses blood gas tests and maybe an ultrasound to guide treatment.
This trial compares two types of IV fluids (colloids and crystalloids) to see how they affect heart function. It is open to healthy adults who are not pregnant and have no known medical problems.
This study looks at how tiny blood vessels respond to extra fluids in ICU patients who have vein congestion. It helps doctors understand if giving more fluid is helpful or harmful for you.
This study looks at how giving fluids to critically ill patients in the ICU affects blood flow back to the heart. It helps doctors understand if giving fluids improves circulation.
