Table 1 PHOENICS study flow diagram

From: Prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blind, multi-center, multinational study on the safety and efficacy of 6% Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) sOlution versus an Electrolyte solutioN In patients undergoing eleCtive abdominal Surgery: study protocol for the PHOENICS study

Procedure

Time

Screening: within 1 week before surgery

Randomization: max. 1 day prior to surgery

T0 (baseline): after randomization and prior induction of anesthesia

T1: during surgery

T2: end of surgery

T3: POD 1 (morning)

T4: POD 2 and 3 (morning)

T5: POD 4 until POD 7 or hospital discharge, whatever occurs first (morning)

T6: POD 8 until POD 10 or hospital discharge, whatever occurs first (morning)

T71)/T82) : 28/90 days after surgery

T93) 1 year after surgery
