However the methods used were either invasive or had other limitations. The aim of this study was to perform intraoperative goal-directed therapy with a minimally invasive easy to use device FloTrac Vigileo and to evaluate possible improvements in patient outcome determined by the duration of hospital stay and the incidence of complications compared to a standard management protocol. Methods In this randomized controlled trial 60 high-risk patients scheduled for major abdominal surgery were included. Patients were allocated into either an enhanced hemodynamic monitoring group using a cardiac index based intraoperative optimization protocol FloTrac Vigileo device GDT-group n 30 or a standard management group Control-group n 30 based on standard monitoring data. Results The median duration of hospital stay was significantly reduced in the GDT-group with 15 12 - days versus 19 14 - days P and fewer patients developed complications than in the Control-group 6 patients 20 versus 15 patients 50 P . The total number of complications was reduced in the GDT-group 17 versus 49 complications P . Conclusions In high-risk patients undergoing major abdominal surgery implementation of an intraoperative goal-directed hemodynamic optimization protocol using the FloTrac Vigileo device was associated with a reduced length of hospital stay and a lower incidence of complications compared to a standard management protocol.
