What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To Evaluate Rate of Anastomotic Leaks Related to the Use of the ColonRing™ Device, at 1 Month

    Anastomotic leakage will be defined as clinical symptoms such as fever or sepsis in combination with pelvic abscess, rectovaginal fistula or peritonitis within 30 days postoperatively leading to a clinical and / or radiological interventional procedure of the subject, or operation that confirms the leakage which has been determined to be related to the device.

    Measured: Approx. 1 year

  2. Device Related Leak Rate up to 30 Days Post op

    Anastomotic leakage will be defined as clinical symptoms such as fever or sepsis in combination with pelvic abscess, rectovaginal fistula or peritonitis within 30 days postoperatively leading to a clinical and / or radiological interventional procedure of the subject, or operation that confirms the leakage which has been determined to be related to the device.

    Measured: 30 days post op

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Rate of Other Device Related Complications and Other Parameters During Hospitalization and Post Procedure.

    The post operative parameters that will be measured during hospitalization period:

    1. Hospitalization time (two dates will be recorded: ready for discharge and discharge). The later noting where the subject was discharged to - e.g. nursing home or home
    2. First day to first postoperative flatus
    3. First day to first postoperative bowel movements
    4. First day of first postoperative toleration of liquids and solids (time to "keeping them down")

    Measured: 30 days post op

What does the primary outcome measure?

To Evaluate Rate of Anastomotic Leaks Related to the Use of the ColonRing™ Device, at 1 Month (time frame: Approx. 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
