Filter by:The study aims to evaluate the role of Ultrasonography in the diagnosis of the cause of acute abdominal pain in 50 adults presenting in the ER at Sohag University Hospital and compares it to the Computed Tomography scan results of the same patients to discover the superiority of both over the other in the diagnosis of different acute abdomen cases.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the safety and effectiveness of the ERAS protocols compared to a conventional care protocols in patients who received emergency laparotomy. The main question it aims to answer are: • Can the ERAS protocols be used safely and effectively in patients undergoing emergency laparotomy? Participants will be randomised into the ERAS group and the conventional group and will be given the ERAS protocols and the conventional protocols in the perioperative period. Researchers will compare the ERAS group with the conventional group to see if the ERAS programme is effective.
Computer tomography (CT) is the primary imaging option for acute abdominal pain in adults. Intravenous (IV) contrast media is used to improve the CT quality. In patients with impaired renal function, post-contrast acute kidney injury (PC-AKI) has remained a significant concern. Modern retrospective studies have shown no association between worsened baseline renal function and IV-contrast CT. However, no randomised controlled trial has been done to conclude this. The INCARO (INtravenous Contrast computed tomography versus native computed tomography in patients with acute Abdomen and impaired Renal functiOn) trial is a multicentre, open-label, parallel group, superiority, individually randomised controlled trial comparing IV-contrast enhanced CT to native CT in patients with impaired renal function. Patients requiring emergency abdominal or body CT with eGFR 15-45 ml/min/1.73 m2 are included in the study. The primary outcome is a composite outcome of all-cause mortality or renal replacement therapy within 90 days from CT.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the diagnostic yield and accuracy of bedside emergency physician performed ultrasound in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis.
