About this study

Official title: Three-dimensional High-definition (3DHD) Laparoscopy Versus Two-dimensional High-definition (2DHD) Laparoscopy in Cholecystectomy: a Clinical Controlled Randomized Double Blinded Trial.

The aim of this study is to compare 3D-laparoscopy versus 2D-laparoscopy with the use of HD resolution in cholecystectomy in terms of error rating, performance time and subjective assessment.

Read the detailed description

Conventional laparoscopy can be very challenging, especially with the requirement of converting the two-dimensional image of the operating field to a three-dimensional perception. This can potentially lead to a detrimental effect on the learning curve as well for the feasibility of the operation for the more inexperienced surgeon. In our hospital, the high frequency of cholecystectomy serves as a basis for the minimally experienced surgeons to explore whether three-dimensional laparoscopy provides a better ability for solving complex intraoperative tasks than the conventional laparoscopy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of errors during the dissection of the Calot´s triangle

    The unedited videos of the operations will be assessed according to GERT (Generic Error Rating Tool) by three surgeons, blinded to which optical modalities is used during the operations as done in a previous pilot study.

    Measured: Expected duration: 20 minutes

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Duration of the dissection of the Calot´s triangle

    Measured: Expected duration: 20 minutes

  2. Duration of surgery

    Measured: Expected duration: 1 hour

  3. The need for conversion to open surgery

    Measured: intraoperative, expected duration of surgery: 1 hour

  4. Estimated blood loss in ml

    Measured: intraoperative, expected duration of surgery: 1 hour

  5. Intraoperative complications

    e.g. leakage of bile, leakage of gallstone, injury to the bile ducts, injury to organs.

    Measured: intraoperative, expected duration of surgery: 1 hour

  6. Subjective assessment (Assessment of fatigue and perceived exertion)

    The surgeon will fill out questionnaires and scales.

    Measured: an expected average of 15 minutes before and after the operation

  7. Subjective assessment (optical modality and mental load assessment)

    The surgeon will fill out questionnaires and scales.

    Measured: an expected average of 15 minutes after the operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 3D HD laparoscopy and 2D HD laparoscopy in people with Cholelithiasis and Gall Bladder Disease, run by Herlev Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Denmark. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Charlotte Fergo (charlotte.sayaka.fergo@regionh.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of errors during the dissection of the Calot´s triangle (time frame: Expected duration: 20 minutes). 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?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Feb 2017.
