About this study

Official title: Risk Factors for Hemodynamic Instability During Laparoscopic Pheochromocytoma Resection - Single Centre Experience

The aims of our study were to define perioperative HI during laparoscopic adrenalectomy for pheochromocytoma, assess the incidence of perioperative HI, and identify predictive factors of perioperative HI in our group of patients.

Read the detailed description

The study was a retrospective observation of consecutive patients with histologically confirmed pheochromocytoma undergoing laparoscopic adrenalectomy between years 2003 and 2019.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Laparoscopic adrenalectomyProcedure or surgery

    Preoperative staging in all cases consisted of computed tomography or/and magnetic resonance imaging. Prior to surgery, a routine panel of laboratory tests was carried out. The catecholamines metabolites (metanephrine, normetanephrine, and methoxytyramine) were measured from 24-hour urine collection. All patients were preoperatively treated with phenoxybenzamine or alternative doxazosin.Additionally, beta-blockers in case of coexisting tachycardia were given. In the morning of the operation, preinduction blood pressure was measured. Pneumoperitoneum was achieved by insufflating CO2 gas to an intraperitoneal pressure of 12 mmHg. The operative method in our department was laparoscopic transperitoneal lateral total adrenalectomy. Intraoperatively SBP and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured and recorded every 10 minutes. To treat hypertensive and hypotensive episodes, intravenous doses of urapidil, ephedrine, nitrates, MgSO4, norepinephrine, or ß-blockers were administered.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants with Hemodynamic Instability (n, %)

    Hemodynamic instability was defined as an occurrence of both intraoperative episodes of systolic blood pressure above 160 mm Hg and vasoactive (vasodilators or vasoconstrictors) drugs administration. Patients were divided into two groups: one which met both above criteria, and another one without hemodynamic instability.

    Measured: intraoperative

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Complications in Patients (n, %)

    Data on morbidity were classified according to the Clavien-Dindo classification.

    Measured: Within 30 days after surgery

  2. Number of Cardiovascular Complications in Patients (n, %)

    Cardiovascular morbidity was defined as postoperative morbidity related to the cardiovascular system: postoperative hypotensive or hypertensive episodes requiring pharmacologic treatment, need for blood transfusion, myocardial or digestive ischemia, stroke, and postoperative hospitalization in intensive care unit (ICU) for cardiac-related causes.

    Measured: Within 30 days after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pheochromocytoma and Hypertension, run by Jagiellonian University.

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 1 inclusion and 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Number of Participants with Hemodynamic Instability (n, %) (time frame: intraoperative). 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 28 Sep 2020.
