Filter by:Aim of the work This study aims at; Early detection of disruption and leakage of intestinal anastomotic sites whether small or large intestine by using biochemical markers as predictors and indicators of leakage with application of scoring scale to assess presence or absence of leakage.
Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), more commonly known as Whipple's surgery is the mainstay treatment for pancreatic head and periampullary cancer. Factors contributing to PD outcomes are broadly categorized to disease-related, patient-related and operative factors. Whereas an inexhaustible list of study exists on looking at reducing PD complication rates with respect to the above-mentioned factors, it was only recently that more attention has been given to the impact of perioperative and intraoperative fluid regimes on PD outcomes. This study takes interest in the impact of intraoperative fluid regimes on PD outcomes. The objective of this investigation is to compare the outcomes with the use of intraoperative intravenous human albumin versus standard intraoperative fluid regimes.
EAGLE is an international service improvement study to investigate the value of an educational tool delivered to surgeons and their teams to reduce the risk of anastomotic leak (leak of a join in the bowel) after right hemicolectomy or ileocaecal resection. This complication causes significant risk to life and therefore risks of leak should be minimised. The educational team of the European Society of Coloproctology has developed an online training package to deliver to 350 hospitals in 30 countries.
The primary objective of the preSponge randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be to assess the potential protective effects of preemptive endoscopic negative pressure therapy (ENP) on postoperative morbidity in high-risk patients undergoing total minimally invasive transthoracic esophagectomy with gastric pull-up reconstruction and high intrathoracic anastomosis (thoracoscopic and laparoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy).
The aim of this study is to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of the C Protein Reactive (CRP) for the detection of Anastomotic leakage after surgery for digestive cancer. The standard protocol in our unit is to measure the CRP on the second and fourth postoperative day. The main aim of the study is to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of the ratio CRP on the fourth postoperative day on CRP on the second postoperative day (CRP_D4/CRP_D2). Secondary outcomes are the diagnosis accuracy of the CRP_D4 and CRP_D2.
Anastomotic leakage is the major postoperative complication in right colectomy. Evaluation of calcification on coeliac trunk and mesenteric arteries on the preoperative CT scan could allow the identification of patient at-risk of postoperative complications. A monocentric retrospective study performed at CHD Vendée concluded than a calcification score over or equal to 3 was associated with a higher risk of developping an anastomotic leakage. The aim of this prospective multicentric study is to validate a calcification score based on preoperative CT scan analysis and focussing at coeliac trunk and mesenteric arteries.This study will involve patients operated on with a scheduled right colectomy.
This trial aims to assess safety and efficacy of three-row circular staplers compared to two-row surgical stapllers in short-term and long-term perspective in patients with rectal cancer undergoing low anterior resection with stapled colorectal anastomosis. All the patients will undergo a low anterior resection. In a half of patients a colorectal anastomosis will be created with a three-row surgical circular stapler. In another half of patients a colorectal anastomosis will be created with a two-row surgical circular stapler.
In our previous study, a nomogram model was established to predict intra-abdominal infectious complications after gastrointestinal surgery. This model was based on the clinical data and the drainage fluid cytokine levels, and it received an AUC >0.9. In this study, validation of this nomogram is planned to be conducted in this prospective cohort study.
The aim of this multi-centered study is to understand the epidemiology of infectious complications after gastrointestinal surgery in China. In total, 17 centers from China will prospectively register their patients undergo gastric or colorectal surgeries. Patient demographic data, operation information, and postoperative data including the infectious complications and the outcomes will be registered. We expect to include 2000 gastric and 2000 colorectal patients within one year and the study is expected to be finished in 2020.
Prospective observational multicenter study on the influence of adherence to enhanced recovery pathways on early outcomes (anastomotic leakage, morbidity, mortality, readmission, reoperation rates and length of postoperative stay) after elective colorectal surgery in Italy.
