Restrictive Versus Standard Fluid Regime in Elective Minilaparotomy Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair

Overview

Elective minilaparatomy abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair is associated with a significant number of complications involving respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and central nervous system, and mortality ranging up to 5%. In our study, we tested the hypothesis that intraoperative and postoperative intravenous restrictive fluid regime reduces postoperative morbidity and mortality and improves the outcome of the treatment of minilaparotomy AAA repair.

We investigate effects of a restricted fluid regime versus standard regimen on complications and hospital stay after minilaparatomy aortic aneurysm repair.
