About this study

Official title: Prehabilitation Plus Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Versus Enhanced Recovery After Surgery in Gynecological Surgery

Prospective, interventionist, controlled and randomized study to test the effectiveness of multimodal prehabilitation protocol in patients who will undergo gynecological surgery.

Read the detailed description

Prospective, interventionist and randomized controlled trial in a 1: 1 ratio, open to the multidisciplinary team but blind to surgeons and anaesthesiologists. The aim is to test the effectiveness of a multimodal prehabilitation protocol in patients with diagnosed or suspicious gynaecological cancer, who will undergo gynaecological surgery.

The multidisciplinary prehabilitation program will be applied to the intervention group. For the group participating in the prehabilitation and for the control group, the protocol and specific recommendations for gynecological cancer defined by the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS®) guidelines will be applied.

Being tested
Prehabilitation Program + Enhanced Recovery After Surgery, Enhanced Recovery After Surgery
Keywords
Prehabilitation, Gynecological Cancer, ERAS - Enhanced Recovery After Surgery, Gynecologic Surgery

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative recovery time

    Postoperative day patient is ready for discharge, defined as the day the patient has the ability to walk alone, take care of herself, and ingest at least 75% of the daily caloric needs

    Measured: Up to 30 postoperative days

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Complications

    Clavien-Dindo Classification, Grades I-V

    Measured: Up to 30 postoperative days

  2. Readmissions

    Readmission to the Hospital Facilities

    Measured: Up to 30 postoperative days

  3. Intensive Care Unit admission rates

    Postoperative Intensive Care Unit admission and stay

    Measured: Up to 30 postoperative days

  4. Health-related Quality of Life

    European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)

    Measured: At Baseline, then at 30 and 60 days postoperatively

  5. Compliance to the ERAS® program guidelines

    Compliance to ERAS® protocol and implementation of the program

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  6. Changes in anxiety and depression from baseline

    Changes in anxiety and depression will be examined using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Scores for each sub scale (depression and anxiety) are summed-up and range from 0 to 21. Values from 0-7 indicate normal levels, 8-10 are border values and values from 11-21 are considered to be pathological.

    Measured: Baseline and postoperatively at 30 and 60 days

  7. Changes in functional capacity from baseline

    Patients will perform a 6-Minute Walk Test

    Measured: Baseline and postoperatively at 30 and 60 days

  8. Change in muscle strength

    Muscle strength is measured by using an dynamometer

    Measured: Baseline and postoperatively at 30 and 60 days

  9. Change in body mass

    Body mass is measured by using a bioelectrical impedance analysis

    Measured: Baseline and postoperatively at 30 and 60 days

  10. Hospital stay

    Days from surgical procedure to hospital discharge

    Measured: Up to 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Prehabilitation Program + Enhanced Recovery After Surgery and Enhanced Recovery After Surgery in people with Gynecologic Surgical Procedures and Enhanced Recovery After Surgery, run by Instituto Brasileiro de Controle do Cancer at 1 site in Brazil.

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 5 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Apr 2022. 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 Brazil. 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Postoperative recovery time (time frame: Up to 30 postoperative days). 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 NCT04505111, which also lists 10 linked publications.

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 11 Apr 2022.
