Filter by: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.
This study is a randomized clinical trial to clarify if preoperative embolization of gastric arteries can reduce the incidence of oesophagogastric leakage after an esophagectomy for esophageal cancer comparing an experimental group vs control group.
NERv's early feasibility clinical trial is a first-in-human, multi-center, pre-market, non-randomized clinical trial intended to evaluate the safety and collect preliminary data necessary for the detection of clinical post-operative anastomotic/intraperitoneal leakages. NERv's Inline Device attaches to existing catheters or peritoneal drains that are currently being used in the medical industry. This allows the device to measure the pH and conductance of intraperitoneal fluids that typically get drained through peritoneal drains. The purpose of NERv's feasibility clinical trial is to collect pH and conductance readings by analyzing peritoneal drainage fluid. Upon analyzing data collected from NERv's Inline Device a clinical model of pH and conductance will be created. The clinical model can then be used to determine if a complication is developing. For instance, boundaries (reading thresholds) can be established where if the signal goes outside the boundaries a complication could be identified. Specifically the ability to detect a post-operative complication known as anastomotic leakage; which is a dreaded complication associated with abdominal surgeries; will be the main focus of the study.
The MA-PPING is a multicenter prospective observational study that includes patients undergoing surgery for gastrointestinal cancer. The study aims to map the oral and gut microbiome of patients diagnosed with pancreatic, esophageal or colorectal cancer during their surgical patient journey from the moment of diagnosis until full recovery (three months after surgery).
Elective diverting ileostomy may reduce consequences of anastomotic failure in laparoscopic TME. Aiming to evaluate the effectiveness of elective diverting ileostomy, its impact on the incidence and clinical behavior of anastomotic leakage and the complications related to its presence and take down were analyzed.
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.
The TENTACLE: Rectum study is a multinational retrospective cohort study that includes patients with anastomotic leakage after rectal cancer resection. The study aims to develop an anastomotic leakage severity score and to evaluate the efficacy of different treatments of anastomotic leakage.
This is a prospective study evaluating the relation between the gut microbiota composition, intestinal healing after colorectal surgery and colorectal cancer behavior. Our hypothesis is that the gut microbiota composition could predict poor intestinal healing in colorectal surgery, and that the gut microbiota might have an impact on colorectal cancer clinical behavior and may predict disease outcomes.
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.
