Trial summary

Esophagectomy serves as an exemplar of major operative trauma, with well-known risk of pulmonary, cardiac, anastomotic, and septic complications and the presence of postoperative complications after esophagectomies for cancer is associated with a reduced long-term survival.

About this study

Official title: Incidence, Risk Factors and Consequences of Acute Kidney Injury in Patients Undergoing Esophageal Cancer Surgery: a Historical Cohort Study

Esophagectomy serves as an exemplar of major operative trauma, with well-known risk of pulmonary, cardiac, anastomotic, and septic complications and the presence of postoperative complications after esophagectomies for cancer is associated with a reduced long-term survival. There is a paucity in the literature regarding postoperative renal outcomes after esophageal surgery, with a wide range of incidence.

The investigators will conduct a historical cohort study aiming to evaluate the incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury in patients undergoing elective esophageal cancer surgery. Secondary, the investigators will assess the progression of the acute injury and the association with adverse pulmonary, cardiac, anastomotic, and septic events, as well as increase in hospital stay and mortality. The investigators will also identify risk factors associated with acute kidney injury occurrence.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury

    according to KDIGO criteria

    Measured: within 48 hours after surgery

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Incidence of transient or persistent postoperative acute kidney injury

    according KDIGO criteria

    Measured: 48 hours after development of acute kidney injury

  2. Number of patients with renal recovery

    according ADQI criteria

    Measured: at 7 days, after 30 days and 3 months

  3. Incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications

    based on European Perioperative Clinical Outcome (EPCO) definitions

    Measured: within 30 days after surgery

  4. Incidence of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE)

    composite outcome of non-fatal cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, new cardiac arrhythmia, angina, ischemic stroke

    Measured: within 30 days after surgery

  5. Incidence of sepsis

    according Sepsis-3 definition

    Measured: within 30 days after surgery

  6. Mortality in hospital

    any death during the admission when the operation was performed

    Measured: 1 year

  7. Increase in length of hospital stay

    compared to the expected length of hospital stay according ACS NSQIP calculation

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Kidney Injury and Postoperative Complications, run by Azienda Ospedaliera di Padova at 1 site in Italy.

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 Feb 2023. 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 Italy. 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?

Incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury (time frame: within 48 hours after surgery). 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 Feb 2023.
