About this study

Official title: Clinical Efficacy Analysis on Early Oral Feeding Versus Nasojejunal Early Enteral Nutrition for Patients After Pancreaticoduodenectomy

This study intends to retrospectively analyze the patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy and compare the safety and feasibility between early enteral nutrition through nasojejunal tube and early oral feeding after pancreatoduodenectomy. This study is expected to revise the guidelines for early nutritional support after pancreaticoduodenectomy, reduce postoperative complications, and provide better guidance for clinical work.

Read the detailed description

Pancreaticoduodenectomy is the standard treatment for periampullary and pancreatic head carcinomas, with the high incidence of perioperative complications ranging from 40% to 60%. Malnutrition is a relevant predictor of post-operative morbidity and mortality after pancreatic surgery. Adequate nutrition is the key to reduce perioperative complications, including abdominal infection, poor healing of wounds, and even gastrointestinal anastomotic leak. The optimal nutritional support method after Pancreaticoduodenectomy is still uncertain, and the current nutritional support methods are diverse. The results of an international survey showed that there was very poor or no agreement on postoperative strategies for the management of nutrition after Pancreaticoduodenectomy. Therefore, the investigators designed this retrospective study to evaluate which was safer and more feasible between early oral feeding and nasojejunal early enteral nutrition after Pancreaticoduodenectomy, using the method of propensity score weighting.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT05573399
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Early oral feedingNo enteral feeding tube was placed after pancreaticoduodenectomy and oral nutrition was given early. Patients were given liquid drinks on the second day after pancreaticoduodenectomy, and solid food from the fifth day.
Early nasojejunal enteral nutritionEarly enteral nutrition was given early through nasojejunal tube. 5% glucose saline was given on the first day after pancreaticoduodenectomy through nasojejunal tube. Enteral nutrition was given from the second day after pancreaticoduodenectomy. When oral intake was adequate, the nasojejunal tube was removed on the sixth day.

What is being measured

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

  1. Perioperative complications

    Complications defined by ISGPS in perioperative period

    Measured: From Operation date to three months after operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pancreatoduodenectomy, run by Changhai Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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 18 Oct 2022. 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 China. 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?

Perioperative complications (time frame: From Operation date to three months after operation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05573399, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 18 Oct 2022.
