About this study

Official title: A Comparison of Clear Fluid Diet Initiation Time on Rebleeding Rate and Convenience Level in Liver Cirrhosis Patients Underwent Esophageal Variceal Ligation at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital

  1. Objective The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether there is a significant difference of early rebleeding rate (within the first 5 days after esophageal variceal ligation), late rebleeding rate (more than 5 days until 28 days after esophageal variceal ligation), and convenience level between cirrhotic patients in early diet group versus late diet group.
  2. Method This study is a single blind randomised clinical trial. Subjects will be selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, then the subjects will be randomly divided into 2 groups, the early diet group (clear fluid diet is initiated 1 hour after esophageal variceal ligation) and the late diet group (clear fluid diet is initiated 6 hours after esophageal variceal ligation). The intervention arm is the early diet group, while the control arm is the late diet group. The primary outcome is the early rebleeding rate. The secondary outcomes are late rebleeding rate and patient's convenience level which will be measured using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).
  3. Expected result The expected result is there will be no difference in early bleeding rate, late bleeding rate, and convenience level between early diet group versus late diet group.
Read the detailed description

This study is a single blind randomised controlled trial (RCT) that will be conducted at gastrointestinal endoscopy center division of gastroenterology, integrated procedure room division of hepatobiliary, department of internal medicine, gastroenterology clinic, hepatobiliary clinic, internal medicine ward, high care unit (HCU) and intensive care unit (ICU) Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital - Faculty of Medicine Universitas Indonesia from May 20, 2021-November 1, 2021. The proposed number of subjects are 130 patients.

Interventions will be given in the form of early clear fluid diet initiation compared to active comparator in the form of late clear fluid diet initiation in eligible liver cirrhosis patients who undergo esophageal variceal ligation (EVL) at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. In early diet group diet, the 100 ml of clear fluid will be initiated at 1 hour after EVL followed by standard protocol (clear fluid, soft porridge, porridge, soft rice, regular rice) explained in the arms and intervention column below. In late diet group, the 100 ml of clear fluid will be initiated at 6 hours after EVL, followed by standard protocol (clear fluid, soft porridge, porridge, soft rice, regular rice) explained in the arms and intervention column below. Other routine and standardised drugs for liver cirrhosis patients will still be given. Statistical analysis will use Chi square test with alternative Fisher test for categorical dependent variables and independent T-test with alternative Mann-Whitney test for two group numerical dependent variables.

What is being measured

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

  1. Early rebleeding event after esophageal variceal ligation

    Early rebleeding event is hematemesis, melena and/or hematochezia that occurs within 5 days (120 hours) after esophageal variceal ligation

    Measured: This outcome (early rebleeding) will be assessed within 5 days after esophageal variceal ligation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Late rebleeding event after esophageal variceal ligation

    Late rebleeding event is hematemesis, melena and/or hematochezia that occurs between over than 5 days until 28 days after esophageal variceal ligation

    Measured: This outcome (late rebleeding) will be assessed between over than 5 days until 28 days after esophageal variceal ligation

What does the primary outcome measure?

Early rebleeding event after esophageal variceal ligation (time frame: This outcome (early rebleeding) will be assessed within 5 days after esophageal variceal ligation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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.
