Trial summary

Anastomotic leakage is serious morbidity that can develop in patients operated on for colorectal cancer and can reach potentially life-threatening dimensions. Many international studies have been conducted to reduce and eliminate this postoperative complication that may have a mortal course. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Postoperative C-Reactive Protein and Sodium Value on the Early Prediction of Anastomotic Leaks in Patients Operated on for Colorectal Cancer

Anastomotic leakage is serious morbidity that can develop in patients operated on for colorectal cancer and can reach potentially life-threatening dimensions. Many international studies have been conducted to reduce and eliminate this postoperative complication that may have a mortal course. In these studies, preoperative, perioperative and postoperative factors of the patient, operation techniques, structure of the material used in the operation and multiple factors belonging to the surgeon were held responsible. Intraabdominal sepsis secondary to late anastomotic leakage and subsequent multiorgan failure can cost the patient's life. Anastomotic leaks that develop in patients who have been operated for colorectal cancer; In order to detect patients' postoperative clinical findings, laboratory examinations, imaging tests, and to eliminate them before intraabdominal sepsis develops, studies including many different laboratory and imaging methods have been carried out. Although previous studies have shown that there are many laboratory examinations and imaging methods that can predict anastomotic leaks early, they have many advantages over each other in terms of efficiency, sensitivity, specificity, and cost.

The investigators aimed to investigate the effectiveness of C reactive protein and blood sodium value, as well as their superiority, among the tests that can predict postoperative anastomotic leakage, especially in patients who have undergone a single anastomosis following resection for non-metastatic colorectal cancer.

Read the detailed description
  • Investigate the effectiveness of postoperative C-reactive protein and sodium values in predicting anastomotic leakage in the early postoperative period in patients who have undergone anastomosis following resection for non-metastatic colorectal cancer, and their superiority to each other.
  • Investigate the effectiveness of these laboratory parameters in developing anastomotic leaks according to tumor location and different age subgroups (<45 years, 45-65 years,> 65 years).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colorectal Cancer, run by Tepecik Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Feb 2021. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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 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?

Early predictive factors of anastomotic leakege (time frame: 2 or 3 days). 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 3 Feb 2021.
