About this study

Official title: Decompressive Laparotomy With Temporary Abdominal Closure Versus Percutaneous Puncture With Placement of Abdominal Catheter in Patients With Abdominal Compartment Syndrome During Acute Pancreatitis:Multicenter, Randomised, Controlled Study

Decompressive laparotomy with temporary abdominal closure, will decrease of overall mortality and major morbidity in patients with abdominal compartment syndrome during acute pancreatitis in comparison with percutaneous puncture with placement of abdominal catheter.

Read the detailed description

We anticipated that decompressive laparotomy with temporary abdominal closure, beside all potentially negative side effects that early open surgery carries in patients with acute pancreatitis, results in decrease of overall mortality and major morbidity. The DECOMPRESS study is designed to compare effects of decompressive laparotomy with temporary abdominal closure and percutaneous puncture with placement of abdominal catheter in patients with abdominal compartment syndrome during acute pancreatitis.

Being tested
Decompressive laparotomy with temporary abdominal closure, Percutaneous puncture with placement of abdominal catheter
Keywords
acute pancreatitis, abdominal compartment syndrome, decompressive laparotomy, percutaneous abdominal puncture, Mortality of patients treated in both arms
Medical subject headings
Pancreatitis, Intra-Abdominal Hypertension
