About this study

Randomized prospective experimental study, in which the effect of a prophylactic mesh is assessed in the eventration rate diagnosed by CT at one year after surgery in patients with CRC who underwent elective intervention for supra-infraumbilical midline laparotomy, considering as treatment the supra-aponeurotic mesh positioning (experimental group), and comparing it to the standard closing with a continuous suture using slow absorption monofilament.

Read the detailed description

Randomized prospective experimental study, in which we evaluate patients with CRC who underwent elective intervention for supra-infraumbilical midline laparotomy in order to:

Main objective:

  • To assess the effect of the prophylactic mesh in the eventration rate diagnosed by CT at one year after surgery in patients with CRC who underwent elective intervention for supra-infraumbilical midline laparotomy.

Secondary objectives:

  • To compare the appearance of complications in the control group and in the experimental group.
  • Compare costs derived from short and long-term mesh placement in both groups.

We consider as treatment the supra-aponeurotic mesh positioning (experimental group), and compare it to the standard closing with slow absorption monofilament.

Study groups in NCT03520465
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Supraaponeurotic meshExperimentalPatients with laparotomy closure by conventional approach of aponeurosis (continuous suture with monofilament of slow absorption), and posterior placement of supraaponeurotic mesh of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) medium / low density and wide pore. The mesh has a longitudinal measurement that exceeds about 3 cm the upper and lower ends of the wound and width should not be less than 10 cm, therefore the mesh selected is DynaMesh®-CICAT longitudinal measure 10x35 cm. The mesh is fixed to the aponeurosis with a crown of loose stitches and points to the midline. A prolene 2/0 non-reabsorbable monofilament suture of cylindrical needle is used. A 10 Fr suction drainage is placed in the supraaponeurotic plane, with an exit to the exterior beyond the edges of the prosthesis. Drainage will be preserved for a minimum of 48 hours after surgery, and will be withdrawn when a debit of less than 50 ml is presented in 24 h.
Receives: Device: DynaMesh®-CICAT longitudinal measure 10x35 cm
MonofilamentNo interventionPatients with conventional closure of the middle laparotomy with approach of aponeurosis in a plane by continuous suture with monofilament of slow absorption. In this study, the suture used in all patients will be poly-4-hydroxybutyrate or Mono-max loop®.

What is being measured

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

  1. Eventration rate

    To assess the effect of the prophylactic mesh in the eventration rate diagnosed by CT at one year after surgery in patients with CRC who underwent elective intervention for supra-infraumbilical midline laparotomy.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Complications rate

    To compare the appearance of complications in the control group and in the experimental group.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Short and long term derived costs

    To compare the costs derived from short and long-term mesh placement in both groups.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing DynaMesh®-CICAT longitudinal measure 10x35 cm in people with Eventration, run by Instituto de Investigacion Sanitaria La Fe at 1 site in Spain.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 13 Aug 2019. 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 Spain. 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. 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 Laura Segura (0034961246711, investigacion_clinica@iislafe.es), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Eventration rate (time frame: 1 year). 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 13 Aug 2019.
