Filter by:Non-randomized study of robot-assisted perineal reconstruction with rectus abdominis muscle flap in patients operated with abdominoperineal resection for irradiated locally advanced rectal or anal cancer. Operative time, complications, wound healing, pre- and postoperatively abdominal wall strength and patient related outcomes including sexual health will be registered.
The empty pelvis syndrome is an unsolved and poorly defined problem severely affecting patients that have pelvic exenteration surgery, and also the teams looking after them. It is unclear what the anatomical and pathophysiological causes of the empty pelvis syndrome are, how it can be prevented, and how its sequelae can be measured. The evidence to guide decisions around the empty pelvis syndrome is of low quality, and so there is a large amount of variation in approaches between different hospitals. This consensus study will define a core outcome set for the empty pelvis syndrome, and establish current levels of consensus on pathophysiology and mitigation of the empty pelvis syndrome through a modified-Delphi process involving both healthcare professionals and patient representatives.
This prospective validation study aims to investigate the incidence of PPAP after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) by applying the ISGPS definition and grading system, to demonstrate its clinical impact by examining associated postoperative outcomes, and to validate its applicability through an economic assessment.
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of polybutester sutures on postoperative complications in lower impacted third molar surgery.
Elderly patients are vulnerable to postoperative complications. Preoperative malnutrition and poor oral hygiene are risk factors for postoperative complications especially pulmonary complications. This study aims to investigate the feasibility and efficacy of perioperative oral decontamination and immunonutrition supplement on reducing postoperative complications in elderly surgical patients.
We did an multi-centre, observational cohort study in patients who had surgery in 2023. We included participants who underwent surgery after the COVID-19 to lift the lockdown in China. Patients meeting the same criteria were eligible who had been treated during the same calendar period of 2019 through 2021. The primary outcomes were the post-operative in-hospital complications. We hypothesized that the post-operative in-hospital complications during the COVID-19 to lift the lockdown period in China were different to complications for the same kind of patients during the same calendar period of the previous years.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a critical complication associated with a high incidence of morbidity and mortality that can occur in critically ill patients and after major surgical procedures. The aim of this study is to identify the incidance and outcomes of patients underwent pneumonectomy, defined by Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria.
This study will recruit women scheduled to undergo vaginal apical suspension surgery (either uterosacral ligament suspension or sacrospinous ligament fixation) with or without other prolapse or anti-incontinence procedures. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to preoperative gabapentin or preoperative placebo (both patients and investigators will be blinded). Note the control group will receive preoperative acetaminophen/celecoxib/placebo and the treatment group will receive preoperative acetaminophen/celecoxib/gabapentin (preoperative acetaminophen/celecoxib are part of our current ERAS protocol). The primary outcome will be postoperative opioid use in the first 24 hours postoperatively measured in morphine milligram equivalents.
In recent years, with the continuous development of minimally invasive techniques, laparoscopic pancreatic surgery has also been widely used. Although the postoperative mortality rate of laparoscopic pancreatic surgery has been decreasing as the technology continues to improve and mature, the complication rate reported varies widely among centers.The definition and grading criteria of ISGPS on postoperative complications of pancreatic surgery are mostly proposed based on open pancreatic surgery, and most of the data of the later related studies are also for open pancreatic surgery, while the applicability of the definition and grading criteria in laparoscopic pancreatic surgery is still lacking in systematic The study The main purpose of this study is to investigate the applicability of the ISGPS definition and grading criteria for pancreatic fistula, postoperative bleeding and delayed gastric emptying in laparoscopic pancreatic surgery.
Postoperative mortality within 30 days after surgery is around 2% in patients having major noncardiac surgery in Europe and the USA. In fact, if the first 30 days after surgery were considered a disease, it would be the third leading cause of death globally. Postoperative deaths are a consequence of postoperative organ injury and complications - including acute myocardial injury, acute kidney injury, and severe infectious complications. To avoid postoperative deaths, it is thus crucial to reduce postoperative organ injury and complications. To reduce postoperative organ injury and complications, modifiable risk factors need to be addressed. These modifiable risk factors for postoperative organ injury include low blood flow states and intraoperative hypotension. Optimizing blood flow (i.e., cardiac index) during surgery may thus be effective in reducing postoperative organ injury and complications. However, the optimal hemodynamic treatment strategy for high-risk surgical patients remains unclear. Cardiac index varies substantially between individuals. However, current intraoperative hemodynamic treatment strategies mainly aim to maximize cardiac index instead of using personalized cardiac index targets for each individual patient. A single-center pilot trial suggests that using individualized cardiac index targets during surgery may reduce postoperative organ injury and complications compared to routine hemodynamic management. However, large robust trials investigating the effect of personalized hemodynamic management targeting preoperative baseline cardiac index on postoperative complications are missing. The investigators, therefore, propose a multicenter randomized trial to test the hypothesis that personalized hemodynamic management targeting preoperative baseline cardiac index reduces the incidence of a composite outcome of acute kidney injury, acute myocardial injury, non-fatal cardiac arrest, severe infectious complications, and death within 7 days after surgery compared to routine hemodynamic management in high-risk patients having major abdominal surgery.
