Randomized Controlled TrialSplanchnic microcirculation protection by hydroxyethyl starches during abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery.
To specifically compare the effect of two hydroxyethyl starches (HES) on the splanchnic microcirculation and systemic inflammation during abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) surgery. ⋯ During AAA surgery, HES200/0.62 provides the best splanchnic microcirculation protection, also reducing inflammation and duration of ventilation.
