Trial summary

Laparoscopic nephrectomies are commonly performed these days and are considered gold standard for both benign and malignant diseases as well as for donor nephrectomies. Despite being a widely performed surgery worldwide still there are areas of uncertainties due to lack of evidences. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Low Pressure Versus Standard Pressure Pneumoperitoneum in Laparoscopic Nephrectomy: A Prospective Randomised Controlled Trial

Laparoscopic nephrectomies are commonly performed these days and are considered gold standard for both benign and malignant diseases as well as for donor nephrectomies. Despite being a widely performed surgery worldwide still there are areas of uncertainties due to lack of evidences. One of such area of dilemma is the optimum pressure of pneumoperitoneum. This study aims to identify if lower pressure of pneumoperitoneum is safe during laparoscopic nephrectomies.

This is a hospital based prospective randomized control study. All the patients undergoing laparoscopic nephrectomies at department of urology and kidney transplant surgery will be eligible for study. Patients will be divided into low pressure or standard pressure pneumoperitoneum by simple random sampling and comparison of various intraoperative and post-operative parameters will be done to assess the safety of low pressure pneumoperitoneum

Being tested
Laparoscopic Surgery
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Renal Cell

What participants receive

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

  • Laparoscopic SurgeryProcedure or surgery

    • Surgery will then proceed at either 8 - 10 or 12 - 15 mmHg pneumoperitoneum pressure depending on study group the patient falls into
    • Port Placement
    • Reflection of colon
    • Isolation of ureterogonadal packet
    • Upper pole dissection
    • Hilar dissection
    • Vessel clipping and division
    • Dissection of kidney

What is being measured

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

  1. To compare the safety of low pressure versus standard pressure pneumoperitoneum in laparoscopic nephrectomy

    Complications between two groups will determine the safety of procedure.

    Measured: 30 days perioperative period

  2. To compare the efficacy of low pressure versus standard pressure pneumoperitoneum in laparoscopic nephrectomy

    Operative time will help to determine efficacy of treatment.

    Measured: 30 days perioperative period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Laparoscopic Surgery in people with Non-Functioning Kidney and Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by Institute of medicine, Maharagjung medical campus.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Nov 2023. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

To compare the safety of low pressure versus standard pressure pneumoperitoneum in laparoscopic nephrectomy (time frame: 30 days perioperative period). 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 18 Nov 2023.
