Trial Identification

Brief Title: Fluid Therapy During Brain Tumor Resection in Children

Official Title: Comparison of Balanced Crystalloid Solution and 0,9% Sodium Chloride in Children Undergoing Brain Tumor Resection: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Study ID: NCT02707549

Conditions

Brain Neoplasms

Interventions

balanced crystalloid solution (components: sodium chloride, sodium gluconate, sodium acetate, potassium chloride and magnesium chloride)

0.9% sodium chloride

Study Description

Brief Summary: Fluid management of children during neurosurgery is not well established. Hypotonic solutions, commonly still used in pediatric patients, may enhance cerebral edema and worse operative conditions. This study compares two different isotonic solutions administered perioperatively regarding acid base and fluid electrolyte disturbances.
