Trial summary

Due to short hospital stay, rapid return to work, less pain, and good cosmetic results, laparoscopic hysterectomy ( LH) has substantially increased the era of hysterectomy procedures especially for the last two decades. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Can Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and Platelet to Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR) be Used as Inflammatory Markers to Predict Length of Hospital Stay After Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (TLH) for Benign Indications?

Due to short hospital stay, rapid return to work, less pain, and good cosmetic results, laparoscopic hysterectomy ( LH) has substantially increased the era of hysterectomy procedures especially for the last two decades. The main reason for this is probably that LH leads to fewer inflammatory responses when compared to open abdominal hysterectomy. Although the inflammatory response is supposed to be lower with total laparoscopic hysteroscopy (TLH), unpredictable inflammatory response as a result of the operation has been still unenlightened and it can be associated with hospital stay.

Read the detailed description

IInflammatory response after surgery is an ordinary outcome which ends up with tissue repair. The increase in neutrophil levels accompanied with a decrease in lymphocyte levels is characteristic for the inflammatory response. Therefore, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) comes out as a simple index of inflammation. In the literature, NLR was shown not only to be associated with surgical complications but also the length of hospital stays in certain surgeries. Another inflammatory marker index of hemogram is the platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR). As a result of endothelial tissue damage, platelets are gathered in the affected area. Therefore, an increase in the number of platelets is inevitable for inflammation. Hence, PLR appears to be another simple index of inflammation due to the increase of platelets and the decrease of lymphocytes. PLR has also shown to be associated with length of hospital stay in various surgeries. NLR and PLR are both newly recommended inflammatory markers to estimate the prognosis of surgical treatment in clinics. Investigations regarding NLR and PLR concerning prognosis of patients after surgeries including gynecological cancer, cardiac surgeries, and emergency surgeries are available in prior literature. Investigators aimed to investigate the possible effects of inflammatory parameters, that can be easily obtained from complete blood count in the post-operative first day of total laparoscopic hysterectomy, to the length of hospital stay in patients without any complications.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative NLR values compared in patients who were hospitalized for more than 3 days and equal to or less than 3 days.

    NLR was calculated by dividing the absolute number of neutrophil to the absolute number of lymphocytes.

    Measured: 4 years

  2. Postoperative PLR values compared in patients who were hospitalized for more than 3 days and equal to or less than 3 days.

    PLR were calculated by dividing the absolute number of platelets to the absolute number of lymphocytes.

    Measured: 4 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Inflammation and Hospital Stay, run by Gaziosmanpasa Research and Education Hospital.

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 15 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 25 Aug 2021. 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?

Postoperative NLR values compared in patients who were hospitalized for more than 3 days and equal to or less than 3 days. (time frame: 4 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 25 Aug 2021.
