NCT ID: NCT01033838 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Early Non-transmural Sigmoidtumor

Randomized Trial Comparing Laparoscopic-assisted Rectosigmoid Resection Versus Laparoscopic Rectosigmoid Resection With Transrectal Specimen Retrieval

LATA
Start date: December 2009
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Laparoscopic anterior resection is a standardized procedure requiring a small muscle split incision to retrieve the specimen and to fashion the proximal part of the double stapled anastomosis. Most patients can be included within a standardized perioperative care program called Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS). A new evolution as a primary step towards a complete Natural Orifice Translumenal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES)-procedure is a hybrid approach (transrectal and laparoscopic). The dissection is performed laparoscopically but the specimen is retrieved within an endobag through the rectum. The anastomosis is created intracorporeally using a triple stapled technique. There are no trials available in the literature concerning these 2 techniques. Therefore this study will be undertaken to establish the role of the 2 surgical procedures and to compare them after short-term follow-up.

NCT ID: NCT00747292 Recruiting - Analgesia Clinical Trials

Peri-Operative Management of Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery

Start date: December 2007
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The aim is to ascertain which method out of epidural, spinal or patient controlled analgesia (PCA) is the most appropriate in fluid optimised patients after laparoscopic colorectal surgery in terms of pain control, length of hospital stay and time for gut recovery. The second aim is to assess the physiological changes that occur when the patient is placed in steep trendelenberg position together with the creation of the pneumoperitoneum.
