Summary

This randomized controlled trial evaluates the efficacy of a proactive Goal-Directed Temperature Management (GDTM) protocol in reducing postoperative delirium among patients undergoing Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) with Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) for pseudomyxoma peritonei.

CRS-HIPEC presents a unique physiological challenge characterized by a biphasic thermal trajectory: potential hypothermia during extensive surgery followed by rapid iatrogenic hyperthermia during perfusion. This study compares a standardized GDTM strategy-which incorporates strict normothermia maintenance and anticipatory pre-cooling prior to perfusion-against standard reactive thermal management. The primary objective is to determine if optimized thermoregulation can attenuate thermal variability and improve early neurocognitive recovery.

Conditions

  • Pseudomyxoma Peritonei
  • Postoperative Delirium (POD)

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Proactive Goal-Directed Temperature Management

The protocol consists of four phases: Cytoreductive Phase: Maintain core temperature 36.5-37.5°C. Pre-cooling Phase: Initiated \~30 min before HIPEC (e.g., during closure), targeting 36.0-36.3°C. HIPEC Phase: Proactive cooling to target 37.5-38.0°C; escalation triggered at 37.8°C. 4. Rewarming Phase: Restore 36.5-37.5°C prior to ICU transfer .

PROCEDURE

Standard Reactive Temperature Management

Hypothermia Management: Active warming initiated reactively only when core temperature falls below 36.0°C. Pre-cooling: No anticipatory pre-cooling is performed. 3. HIPEC Phase: Active cooling withheld unless core temperature exceeds standard safety thresholds (typically \>38.5°C) or for immediate safety indications .
