Trial summary

The sarcopenia is defined as a loss of muscle mass and a loss of muscle function ( strength or performance). Some studies showed that the sarcopenia increase the postoperative complications and the overall survival in abdominal surgery. But the sarcopenia is not evaluated in the Hepatobiliary surgery.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Prevalence, the Diagnosis Tests, and the Associated Morbimortality of Sarcopenia in Hepatobiliary Surgery

The sarcopenia is defined as a loss of muscle mass and a loss of muscle function ( strength or performance). Some studies showed that the sarcopenia increase the postoperative complications and the overall survival in abdominal surgery. But the sarcopenia is not evaluated in the Hepatobiliary surgery. This prospective, monconcentrique study aim to evaluate the prevalence of sarcopenia, and its associated morbimortality in hepatobiliary surgery for malignant or benign tumors.

Medical subject headings
Sarcopenia, Digestive System Diseases, Postoperative Complications

What is being measured

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

  1. the number of patients with a sarcopenia before having a hepatobiliary surgery mesured by impedancemetry and by the muscular force or the speed walking

    for the man : i/impedancemetry BMI<8,87kg/m2 and ii/ a muscular force < 30kg or a walking speed <0,8m/s

    Measured: 1 month

  2. the number of patients with a sarcopenia before having a hepatobiliary surgery mesured by impedancemetry and by the muscular force or the speed walking

    for the woman: i/impedancemetry BMI<6,42kg/m2 and ii/muscular force < 20kg or a walking speed <0,8m/s

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. comparison between the impedancemetry and the abdominopevis CT for the diagnosis of sarcopenia

    • impedancemetry used to evaluate the muscular mass
    • abdominopelvis CT evualate the muscular mass by measuring the muscular area on the L3 section

    Measured: 3 months

  2. comparison of the postoperatives complications using the clavien dindo classsification between the patient with sarcopenia and the patient without sarcopenia.

    postoperatives complications evualuated according the clavien dindo classification are : death, nausea, vomit, need of nasogastric tube, liver failure with jaundice, ascites, liver encephalopathy, biliary fistula, biliary peritonitis, hernia, parietal abcess, urinary infection, urinary retention, hematoma, pulmonary embolism, pulmonary infection, pleural effusion, atelectasis, renal failure, hyponatremia, hypernatremia, hypokaliema, hyperkaliema the post operative complication evaluate

    Measured: 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sarcopenia and Hepatobiliary Disease, run by University Hospital, Angers at 1 site in France.

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 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

the number of patients with a sarcopenia before having a hepatobiliary surgery mesured by impedancemetry and by the muscular force or the speed walking (time frame: 1 month). 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?

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