Popis: Background: Synthetic colloids, both starches and gelatins, are commonly used as intravascular fluid replacements on account of increased vascular persistence. The safety on renal outcomes during perioperative use is poorly understood. Aims: We evaluated renal outcomes of hydroxyethyl starch 6% (HES) and gelatins 4% (G) in patients undergoing elective abdominal surgery. The primary outcome was serum creatinine measurements at baseline, 12 h, 36 h, and 1 week postoperatively (T0, T12, T36, and D7). The secondary outcomes were measurements of prothrombin time (PT), international normalized ratio (INR), fibrinogen, and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) at baseline, 12 h, and 36 h postoperatively. Setting and Design: A prospective randomized study was conducted at a tertiary care institute. Materials and Methods: Seven-five adult patients received either HES (Group H) or gelatin (Group G) at 20-ml/kg body weight or only crystalloids (Group C) during surgery. Statistical tests used were one-way ANOVA, Student's t-test, Pearson correlation method, and Chi-square test. Results: Serum creatinine assessed at T0, T12, T36, and D7 was comparable between the three groups. PT/INR and aPTT showed no significant increase in values of T12 and T36 in comparison to T0. Fibrinogen level was significantly higher in Group C at T12 and T36. Intraoperative vasopressor use, need for product transfusion, length of intensive care unit stay, and return of bowel function were similar between the three groups. Conclusions: Intraoperative use of HES (130/0.4) or gelatin (4%) at 20-ml/kg body weight was not associated with renal dysfunction or altered PT and aPTT in adult patients undergoing elective abdominal major surgeries.
