Detailed Description
To overcome these problems and avoid the complications of over or underhydration, we use the Goal-directed fluid therapy(GDFT) guided by Inferior vena cava(IVC) collapsibility index approach in which dynamic parameters of volume responsiveness as a guide for fluid therapy. This will ensure that the fluids given were deficient from the circulation and improve the recovery of the patients according to enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) protocols.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Active Comparator: GD Group Patients will take oral clear fluids with carbohydrates content 2 hours preoperatively and intraoperative fluid intake will be guided by Inferior vena cava(IVC) diameter. |
Procedure: Goal-Directed Fluid Therapy guided by Inferior Vena Cava Collapsibility Index
Measuring Inferior vena cava(IVC) diameter using ultrasound then calculation Inferior vena cava(IVC) collapsibility index and administer fluid accordingly.
|
| Active Comparator: C Group the standard fluid management group patients will be fasting 6 hours preoperatively and will receive intraoperative fluid in standard manner. |
Procedure: standard fluid management
standard fluid management

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Mean Arterial Blood Pressure [intraoperatively every 5 minutes]
intraoperative mean arterial blood pressure measured in mmHg
- Quality of Recovery-40 score(QoR-40) [24 hours postoperative]
QoR-40 score ranges from 40 to 200, the higher the score the better the outcome
- Heart Rate [intraoperatively every 5 minutes]
intraoperative heart rate will be continuously monitored and recorded every 5 minutes
- Post Anesthesia Care Unit(PACU) Stay [2 hours postoperatively]
time spent in PACU after surgery measured in minutes
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Total fluid intake during operation [intraoperatively]
Total fluid intake during operation
- Number of patients that needed Ephedrine or Atropine [intraoperatively]
Number of patients that needed Ephedrine or Atropine intraoperatively
- Peripheral perfusion index [Intraoperatively]
Peripheral Perfusion Index (PPI) is defined as "the ratio of pulsatile blood flow to the non-pulsatile blood flow". It ranges from 0.02% to 20% and it is measured using specific types pulse oximetry and it reflects the perfusion status of the body.
- Length of hospital stay [the patient will be followed up for 60 days from day of surgery]
the number of days from day of surgery until patient's discharge from hospital
