Also, since hemorrhage andhypovolemia decrease cardiac output, tissue ischemia mayresult.

    Perioperative fluid management 161perioperative period may have profound effects on sur-al outcome by direct maintenance of organ perfusion andmodulation of the inflammatory response to injury. How-r the problems of fluid overload and its related complica-

    ns should not be underestimated.

    azards of aberal Fluid Regimenreased aldosterone and antidiuretic hormone release fol-ing surgery led to conservation of water and sodium as an

    egral component of the stress response.1 With liberal in-venous fluid administration in addition to this naturaless response, patients can be at risk from overhydration.ministration of excess fluid may contribute to significantstoperative morbidity with affects on several organ sys-s: cardiac function, respiration, the coagulatory system,

    d the gastrointestinal tract.9-11 The sequelae of fluid over-d are often the result of fluid shifts, with accumulation ofid in potential spaces, particularly those of the bowel wall,ritoneum, and pleural cavities. These third space losses arearticular problem after major abdominal surgery and haveen shown to increase with intravenous fluid therapy.12

    Holte et al13 illustrated the potential detrimental effects ofess fluid by subjecting healthy volunteers to 1 of 2 fluid

    ministration regimens. They found significant weight gaind worsened spirometry readings in the group given liberalids. In a study assessing deaths from pulmonary edema injor inpatient surgery, 7.6% of patients developed pulmo-

    ry edema with an associated mortality of 11.9%. Net fluidention of 67 ml/kg/d was found to be a predisposingtor in those patients affected.14 Similarly, weight gain of0% over baseline has been correlated with increased post-

    erative morbidity.10 Certainly, in thoracic surgery there is and toward a dry regimen, with evidence to suggest thisuces postoperative pulmonary complications.15

    Excess fluid volume may increase cardiac work and myo-dial oxygen demands. The Starling myocardial perfor-nce curve shows that until a certain point intravascular

    lume expansion increases cardiac output due to increasedd-diastolic filling. Beyond that point, further fluid admin-ation will lead to reduced ventricular function. In a largeservational study of patients undergoing major noncardiacgery, those patients who underwent pulmonary arteryheterization and increased fluid administration had arked increase in cardiac morbidity. Compared with thetrol group, it is unclear, however, how much of the post-

    erative outcome could be attributed to the fluid adminis-tion alone.16

    Excretion of administered intravenous fluid relies on ade-ate renal function; thus, in overhydration, excess demandsplaced on the kidney. A study of overhydrated burn pa-

    nts showed that only 50% of patients had excreted theess volume at 1 week.17 Even in healthy volunteers, ex-

    tion of an acute saline bolus (22 ml/kg) takes severalys.18 While functional demand on the kidney may be in-

    comfluased, there is no clear evidence of the role of fluid excesspostoperative renal morbidity in isolation.

    Tissue edema in the gut wall impairs bowel motility, im-irs gastric emptying, and predisposes to postoperative il-s, prolonging hospital stay.9 Indeed, gastrointestinal dis-bance is 1 of the commonest morbidities recorded afterjor abdominal surgery with local effects of prolonged nau-and vomiting with enteric nutritional intolerance. More

    bally, however, the gut mucosal edema and prolongedus may allow translocation of bacteria and endotoxin, fur-r driving the systemic inflammatory response and con-

    buting to multiple organ dysfunction and sepsis. Large-lume fluid sequestration in the peritoneal cavity togetherth bowel wall and luminal fluid associated with ileus, canextreme cases result in abdominal compartment syn-me, with concomitant effects on respiratory and renalction.

    olution of Fluid Restrictione increasing interest in strategies to improve postoper-ve outcome on the back of enhanced surgical recoverygrams called for the traditional aggressive approach to

    rioperative fluid administration to be re-evaluated. Tak-the lead from thoracic surgical practice, Kehlet and col-

    gues introduced the concept of fluid restriction in his fastck surgical regimens with intraoperative fluid standard-d to 2 L (1500 mL isotonic saline 500 mL 6% hydroxy-yl starch).19

    A large multicenter study comparing standard and restric-e fluid regimens in patients undergoing colorectal surgerynd a marked reduction in morbidity rate of 21% versus

    % in the restricted group.20 In contrast, however, a largedy of 80 patients under going colorectal surgery random-d to either a restricted or a standard regimen found day ofgery intravenous fluid to be 2 vs 2.75 L in the restricted

    d standard groups, respectively.21 This study failed tow any significant improvement in outcome with a moretrictive regimen; however, it did provide evidence thatre were no adverse effects to patients subjected to fluidtriction. The standard group in the Brandstrup study,wever, received a median of 5388 mL intravenous fluid on

    day of surgery with a range of 2700-11,083 mL. It isssible that more patients in this group experienced com-cations from overhydration, in what was clearly a ratheret standard regimen.20 Certainly, animal studies havewn that excess crystalloid administration has a significant

    pact on functional and structural intestinal anastomoticbility.22

    There are now numerous studies in colorectal surgery ander surgical specialties showing patients fared better whenids are administered in a restricted manner.23-25 Even saltd water administration within an accepted normal ranges been linked with increased morbidity, with a study oftients undergoing colorectal resection showing fewer com-cations following mean daily sodium doses of 115 mmolpared with 149 mmol.26 So should we conclude thatid restriction in elective surgery is beneficial?

    ment); however, it also accepts there are definite risks andverse events associated with overhydration (agreeing with

    restrictive regimen promoters). Figure 1 suggests howth these arguments may interact. If the relationship be-een volume load (x-axis) and morbidity (y-axis) is plotteda U-shaped curve, we can see that too little fluid withue hypoxia would be related to increased morbidity asuld too much fluid; the nadir of this curve represents thee of optimization.

    This realization has led to a new body of evidence usingtocolized fluid algorithms based on flow parameters to

    ide fluid therapy on an individual patient basis. Manydies have been carried out assessing the role of goal-di-ted therapy and have employed a variety of monitoringhniques. Early studies used pulmonary artery cathetersd targeted cardiac index and/or oxygen delivery in the pre-intraoperative period.6,8,31,32 These studies have demon-ated potential benefits from goal-directed fluid administra-n. Boyd et al6 increased oxygen delivery using dopexamineusion and found a reduction in 60-day mortality and mor-ity in a group of high-risk surgical patients. Wilson et al8

    nd similar results using combinations of fluids and ino-pes; however, on further study they found similar resultsld be obtained from fluids alone. Lobo et al32 randomizedpatients undergoing major surgery to receive fluids and

    butamine to achieve supranormal cardiovascular values.ey found a reduced mortality, fewer complications, and and toward less organ dysfunction in the intervention pa-nts. With the inherent risks of pulmonary artery catheter-tion, and patients requiring critical care admission forir use, practically, this type of monitoring is not feasibleroutine use in elective surgical patients. Further studies

    ve therefore looked at intraoperative optimization usingre minimally invasive techniques, such as esophagealppler monitoring. In 1995, Mythen and Webb33 random-d patients undergoing cardiac bypass surgery to receiverioperative plasma volume expansion using colloid andnd a reduction in gut mucosal hypoperfusion and im-ved outcome in the intervention group. Studies in other

    tient groups have confirmed potential benefits in terms ofrbidity and hospital stay following perioperative optimi-ion.34-36 Studies on patients undergoing major colorectalections have shown a significantly increased cardiac out-t, reduced critical care admission, with reduced morbidity,proved recovery of gastrointestinal function, and reducedspital stay following goal-directed fluid administra-n.37-39 Additionally, significantly reduced serum interleu--6 (as a marker of the systemic inflammatory response togical trauma) was found in a group of colorectal patientso had undergone a fluid optimization regimen com-

    red with standard care.39 Studies of general surgical pa-nts (mean age 55-60 years) had a reduced stay of 2 days;diac surgical patients (mean age 65 years) had a reducedy of 4 days, and fractured neck of femur patients (mean age-85 years) had a reduced stay by 4-8 days.33-36 In patientsincreasing age and comorbidity, the importance of accu-e perioperative fluid management is even greater, withtentially increased benefits of a goal-directed regimen.Goal-directed or fluid optimization regimens in pa-nts undergoing major abdominal surgery have now beenjected to systematic review and meta-analysis, confirmingt goal-directed, flow-guided optimization results in im-

    ved hemodynamic control, reduced morbidity, reduced

    us, and shorter hospital stays.40,41

    Perioperative fluid management 163he Future oferioperative Fluid Managementravenous fluids are medications. As such, they are proba-the most widely prescribed drug in hospital medicine yetrationale behind what fluid, how much, and when con-

    ues to be debated in surgical practice. Fluid prescriptiond administration is often carried out by a recipe-bookproach to a given operation or clinical situation with littleard to the individual patient and physiologic response. It

    eds to be stressed to doctors and all involved in patient caret intravenous fluids, while often not considered as drugs,not benign medications. Indeed, in the UK the report ofNational Confidential Enquiry into Perioperative Death

    hlighted overhydration as a major contributory factor inevolution of postoperative complications causing death.42

    arge US study found over 8000 postoperative deaths perr were attributed to pulmonary edema in the absence of

    y other cause except excess intravenous fluid therapy.43 Inponse to this and with the increasing evidence to supportal-directed therapy, the British Consensus Guidelines onravenous fluid therapy for adult surgical patients now statet, for patients undergoing some forms of orthopedic and

    dominal surgery, intraoperative fluids should be adminis-ed to monitored and targeted optimal stroke volume touce morbidity.44

    Surgical fluid management aims to avoid tissue hypoper-ion, activation of the systemic inflammatory response, andltiple organ failure yet at the same time prevent fluid

    erload. Judicious perioperative fluid therapy can improvetcome after major surgery; however, accurate fluid optimi-ion requires careful cardiovascular monitoring. Ideal in-operative fluid management is tailored to the individualtient and involves monitoring of flow-based parameters byinimally invasive technique with little risk. Simply using

    ra monitoring, however, is not enough. A proactive ap-ach to goal-directed therapy following a treatment algo-m will allow most patients to achieve their individualtimized hydration state, allowing maximum tissue per-ion and oxygenation while protecting them from the risksvolume overload. Goal-directed fluid management has
