Filter by:This clinical trial is about the survival benefit of extended lymphadenectomy and nerve clearance versus standard lymphadenectomy in pancreaticoduodenectomy of pancreatic adenocarcinoma，which is a multicenter，prospective，ramdomized clinical trials.
The aim of this randomized prospective multicenter study is to demonstrate the hypothesis that early removal of drain could reduce the incidence of major complications (grade 2-4) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) , when compared with later removal of drain.
Early oral intake after Pancreaticoduodenectomy is recommended strongly according to the ERAS guideline, which was based on studies in patients with gastrointestinal cancer, mainly colorectal and gastric. Specific clinical study on early oral intake after PD is very limited. inadequate nutritional intake was significantly associated with a high incidence of postoperative complications. Therefore, the present study is aim to evaluate the tolerance, safety, and efficacy in the patients undergoing PD in the age of ERAS.
Open pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is the standard treatment for a wide array of periampullary and pancreatic diseases including malignant and benign conditions. The outcome of PD has improved over the last two decades due to advances in surgical techniques, anesthesia and perioperative care. Although studies from high volume centers demonstrate reduce in the operative mortality to less than 3%, the postoperative morbidity rate is still ranging from 30% to 60%. Laparoscopic surgery is being used increasingly as a less invasive alternative to traditional interventions for pancreatic resection. Laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) is a difficult procedure that has become increasingly popular. Nevertheless, comparative data on outcomes remain limited. In this prospective randomized study, investigators evaluate the safety and feasibility of surgical and oncological outcomes of minimally invasive PD compared to conventional open PD.
The use of nasogastric (NG) decompression after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is a current practice. NG tube is associated with a high rate of morbidity including pulmonary morbidity, delayed gastric emptying and finally an increased length of hospital stay. The absence of NG decompression could be the corner stone of the concept of the enhanced recovery program after PD.
Up to now, the studies concerning nutritional assessment after pancreatic resection were rare. The low-dose pancreatic enzyme treatment after pancreatectomy showed no significant benefit in terms of nutritional status. This study is a multicenter randomized phase IV study by using high-dose Norzyme® (40,000 IU) to evaluate quality of life and nutritional status after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
Pancreatic resection is the only potentially curative modality of treatment for pancreatic neoplasm. The mortality associated with this procedure decreased rapidly in the past decades. However, the morbidity associated with pancreatic resection remains high. The main reason for postoperative morbidity is postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF), which is regarded as the most ominous complication following pancreatic resection. Its reported incidence varies in the surgical literature from 10% to >30%. Recently published studies showed that the placement of intraoperative drains, manipulation with the drains, timing of removal of the drain, and especially the type of drain, have significant effect on the postoperative complications, and especially POPF. Controversy exists regarding the type of intraoperatively placed drain. Nowadays, the two most commonly used systems are closed suction drainage and closed gravity drainage. Open systems have been abandoned in most centers as they are obsolete. Our hypothesis is that the closed suction drain will have better results as it is more effective than the gravity drainage. However, some surgeons claim that the suction system can actively suck the pancreatic juice through the anastomosis or suture and thus promote the development of POPF. The aim of this study is to compare closed suction drains and closed gravity drains after pancreatic resection in a randomized controlled study. The primary end-point is the postoperative pancreatic fistula rate. The secondary end-point is the postoperative morbidity.
Dynamic parameters like pulse pressure variation have been shown to be accurate predictors of fluid responsiveness. Hemodynamic optimization based on fluid management and stroke volume optimization have been shown to improve patient outcomes, especially for moderate and high risk abdominal surgical patients. A novel closed-loop fluid administration system based on multi-parameter hemodynamic monitoring have been described recently. This prospective, randomized, surgeon and patient blinded study aims at comparing the cardiac output provided by either this closed-loop system or the anesthesiologist team in high-rish surgical patient elected for abdominal surgery at Pierre Bénite University Hospital, Hospices Civils of Lyon, France. Primary endpoint is the mean indexed cardiac output during surgery per group. We will also compare hemodynamic parameter (cardiac output, stroke volume, blood pressure heart rate…) and patient's outcomes (morbidity, mortality, transfusion rate, hospital length of stay) between groups
From postoperative patients having undergone pancreaticoduodenectomy; 1. To compare the hemodynamic parameters from the patient administrated 5% HA and 6% Voluven 2. To assess the efficacy of the treatment as regards the clinical outcomes and laboratory parameters of the patient 3. To compare the safety of the 2 intravenous colloids in the patient population
Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) includes en bloc resection of duodenum, head of pancreas, proximal jejunum, distal common bile duct (CBD), gallbladder, and distal stomach, which was followed by complicated reconstructions. Therefore, PD causes change of physiological functions, containing insufficiency of exocrine and endocrine pancreatic function, malabsorption of nutrients, impairment of gut peristalsis, and hepatic steatosis . On the other hand, DM may also resolve after PD in cases with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. From the study of bariatric operation, resolution of DM may occur even before body weight loss. Postulated mechanism of resolution of DM after bariatric operation included foregut and hind gut theory. Actually, both hindgut and foregut effects on sugar control are achieved to some extent after pancreaticoduodenectomy. First, most of the duodenum is routinely removed in PD and there will be no food passage through duodenum (foregut theory) after PD. Second, proximal 10 cm of jejunum will be removed in PD and another 30~ 40 cm- long jejunum will be brought up for pancreatic and biliary anastomosis, which will make the last enteral anastomosis (gastrojejunostomy or duodenojejunostomy) be created at site about 50-60 cm distal to Treitz ligament. Therefore, food will directly pass into distal jejunum (hindgut theory). In our preliminary study, 35% patients have resolution of diabetes after PD, especially for ones with new-onset DM. Further, a prospective randomized clinical trial will be conducted to address if modified distal gastro-/duodeno-jejunostomy results in a higher proportion of diabetes remission compared with standard PD.
