About this study

This observational study introduced an new advanced bleeding control strategy during complex liver resection.This newly described "stepwise vascular control" technique was efficacious and feasible to control intra-operative bleeding in complex hepatectomy involving second hepatic hilum and retro-hepatic inferior vena cava.

Being tested
stepwise vascular control
Medical subject headings
Blood Loss, Surgical

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • stepwise vascular controlProcedure or surgery

    Before liver parenchymal resection, we performed "total hepatic vascular preparation for occlusion" with portal triad (PT), infra-hepatic inferior vena cava (IIVC), and supra-hepatic inferior vena cava (SIVC) preparation in order. Then we performed step-by-step vascular occlusion according to the individual bleeding situation.

What is being measured

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

  1. blood loss during liver resection

    Measured: duration of operation time

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

blood loss during liver resection (time frame: duration of operation time). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02996006, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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.
