ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is investigating a new type of succinylated gelatin injection, which is a fluid used to help maintain blood volume during surgery. The goal is to see how well this new injection works compared to an already approved product during a process called Acute Normovolemic Hemodilution (ANH), where some blood is removed and replaced with a fluid to keep blood levels stable. The researchers will measure changes in heart function right after the ANH procedure and just before it starts.

To participate in this trial, you need to be between 18 and 65 years old, weigh between 50 kg and 100 kg, and have plans for elective surgery lasting less than six hours. You'll also need to have a stable hemoglobin level (a measure of your blood's oxygen-carrying capacity) and meet other health criteria. If you decide to join, you'll be closely monitored during the trial to ensure your safety and gather information about how well the new injection works. It’s important to know that there are certain health conditions and medications that could disqualify you from participating, so the research team will assess your eligibility carefully.
