| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Due to the significant reduction of BNP by inhibiting sympathic nerve activity we hypothesize that supplemental oxygen have beneficial effects in perioperative BNP release in cardiac risk patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. ;Secondary Objective: 1) Effect of supplemental oxygen on postoperative troponin T concentration. 2) Influence of supplemental oxygen on perioperative plasma catecholamine concentration. 3) The effect of oxygen on the redox potential. 4) The effect of hyperoxia on needed vasopressor for hemodynamic stability due to enhanced vasoconstriction 5) Endothelial release of vWF in order to evaluate the endothelial response to supplemental oxygen. ;Primary end point(s): Supplemental oxygen leads to a significant reduction of BNP in patients suffering congestive heart failure due to inhibiting of sympathic nerve activity. In the following trial, we want to evaluate the effect of supplemental intraoperative oxygen in cardiac risk patients undergoing major surgery. Our primary outcome parameter will be the perioperative brain natriuretic peptide.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Brain natriuretic peptide measurement will be performed within 2 hours after end of surgery, on postoperative day 1, 3 and before discharge but at least within 72hours. | — |

| Secondary end point(s): 1) Harmful effects of hyperoxia were described in patients suffering acute myocardial syndrome, however almost no data exists about patients in the perioperative setting without an acute myocardial event. Myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) is associated with significant increased 30-day mortality. Patients with a troponin T level > 0.04ng/l will be assessed for ischemic features. 2) All participants will be monitored for cardiac morbidity as there are: a) myocardial infarction requiring medical intervention, b) acute heart failure requiring medical therapy (diuretics, positive inotropes therapy, invasive and non-invavisve respiratory support) c) new onset of cardiac arrhythmias needing intervention d) unplanned ICU admission due to cardiac events. 3) Patients experience a significant raise in plasma catecholamines during surgery. Because of the association between intraoperative raise of catecholamines and postoperative cardiovascular risk we will also measure perioperative catecholamine (e.g. adrenaline, noradrenaline, dopamine) concentration. Supplemental oxygen leads to a decrease of sympathetic nerve activity followed by lower plasma catecholamine concentrations. Therefore, we perform a baseline measurement immediately after induction of anesthesia, one after surgery and one on third postoperative day. 4) The antioxidant capacity of a plasma sample, will be measured based on the electrical conductance relative to an internal reference standard. The plasma sample will be obtained preoperatively, hourly and immediately after end of surgery and on postoperative day 1 and 3 and before discharge but at least within 72hours. 5) Supplemental oxygen might have a vasopressor sparing effect. Consequently, the number of administered boluses as well as the total dose of phenylephrine and norepinephrine will be recorded. 6) The immune modulator effect of supplemental oxygen remains still unknown.
