Show all 14Show fewer
  • Washout/evacuation of intra-peritoneal hematoma
  • Bowel resection/repair due to incarcerated umbilical, inguinal and femoral hernias (but not hernia repair without bowel resection/repair)

  • If multiple procedures (primary surgery or reoperation) are performed on different anatomical sites within the abdominal/pelvic cavity, the patient would be included if the major procedure is general surgical.

Who cannot join

  • Not capable of giving informed consent after oral and written information
  • Previously included in the trial
  • Elective laparoscopy
  • Diagnostic laparotomy/laparoscopy where no subsequent procedure is performed (NB, if no procedure is performed because of inoperable pathology, then include)
  • Appendectomy +/- drainage of localized collection unless the procedure is incidental to a non-elective procedure on the GI tract
  • Cholecystectomy +/- drainage of localized collection unless the procedure is incidental to a non-elective procedure on the GI tract (All surgery involving the appendix or gallbladder, including any surgery relating to complications such as abscess or bile leak is excluded)
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Non-elective hernia repair without bowel resection.
  • Minor abdominal wound dehiscence unless this causes bowel complications requiring resection
  • Ruptured ectopic pregnancy, or pelvic abscesses due to pelvic inflammatory disease
  • Laparotomy/laparoscopy for pathology caused by blunt or penetrating trauma

About this study

Official title: Perioperative Pulmonary Monitoring in Major Emergency Surgery -the PROMIES Project

  1. Describe the incidence of postoperative hypoxemia after major emergency abdominal surgery as well as correlate this to clinical outcomes.
  2. Investigate the association between postoperative pulmonary complications and respiratory muscle dysfunction.
  3. Investigate the association between the length and type of incision as well as the distance to the xiphoid process and respiratory muscle dysfunction.
  4. Investigate the association between postoperative hypoxemia, myocardial ischemia and ischemic electrocardiographic (ECG) changes within three days of major emergency abdominal surgery
  5. Describe the incidence of postoperative cardiac arrhythmias within three days of major emergency abdominal surgery and the association with postoperative cardiovascular complications within 30 days, 90 days and 1 year of surgery.
  6. Describe the association between HRV and postoperative cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular complications within 30 days, 90 days and 1 year of surgery

What participants receive

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

  • Major emergency abdominal surgeryProcedure or surgery

    Major emergency gastrointestinal surgery performed within 72 hours of an acute admission or an acute reoperation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in postoperative maximal inspiratory mouth pressure from POD1 to POD3

    Maximal inspiratory mouth pressure [cmH2O] is measured on the first and third postoperative day to asses the change

    Measured: 3 days

  2. Change in postoperative maximal expiratory mouth pressure from POD1 to POD3

    Maximal expiratory mouth pressure [cmH2O] is measured on the first and third postoperative day to asses the change

    Measured: 3 days

  3. Length of surgical incision

    The length of the surgical incision [cm] will be measured on the first postoperative day

    Measured: Day 1

  4. Heart Rate Variability (HRV)

    HRV assessed preoperatively - POD3, if this is not achievable then from POD0 - POD3

    Measured: 3 days

  5. The occurence of per- and postoperative cardiac arrhythmias (until POD3)

    The occurence of postoperative cardiac arrhythmia the first three days following surgery, with cardiac arrhythmia defined as:

    • Atrial fibrillation (AF) or
    • Atrial Flutter (AFL) or
    • Ventricular Tachycardia (VT- both monomorphic and polymorphic types) or
    • Recurrent sustained ventricular tachycardia (RSVT) or
    • Ventricular fibrillation (VF) or
    • Torsade de Pointes (TDP) or
    • 2nd degree atrioventricular (AV) block or
    • 3rd degree atrioventricular (AV) block

    Measured: 3 days

  6. The occurence of per- and postoperative ischemic ECG changes (until POD3)

    The occurence of per- and postoperative ischemic ECG changes the first three days following surgery, defined as:

    • ST-depression ≥ 0,5 mm at the J-point in ≥ 2 contiguous leads or
    • Inverted T waves ≥ 1 mm in ≥2 contiguous leads that have dominant R waves or
    • ST-elevation ≥ 1 mm in ≥ 2 contiguous leads, however
    • ST-elevation in V2-V3 ≥ 2,5 mm for males < 40 years of age in ≥ 2 contiguous leads
    • ST-elevation in V2-V3 ≥ 2,0 mm for males ≥ 40 years of age in ≥ 2 contiguous leads
    • ST-elevation in V2-V3 ≥ 1,5 mm for females in ≥ 2 contiguous leads) or
    • In V2-V3: Any q wave ≥ 0,02 seconds,
    • In other leads: Q wave ≥ 0,03 seconds and > 1 mm deep in ≥ 2 contiguous leads.

    Measured: 3 days

  7. The occurence of postoperative hypoxemia during the first three postoperative days

    The occurence of postoperative hypoxemia during the first three postoperative days, defined as:

    • the number of declines in saturation of 4 % (or more) lasting 20 seconds (or more) or
    • number of desaturation episodes below 90 % or
    • time (minutes( spent below 90 %,

    Measured: 3 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Complication and Cardiovascular Complication, run by Zealand University 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 14 inclusion and 12 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 6 Jun 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 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. 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 Ismail Gögenur, MD (+45 26336426, igo@regionsjaelland.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in postoperative maximal inspiratory mouth pressure from POD1 to POD3 (time frame: 3 days). The study lists 7 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.

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 6 Jun 2019.
