Trial summary

Acute cholecystitis (AC) is the second most frequent pathology in Surgical Emergencies; laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the gold standard treatment, but not all patients are fit for surgery. Percutaneous Cholecystostomy (PC) is an alternative to LC but has high comorbidity. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Complications of Non-Surgical Treatment in Acute Cholecystitis, the Unkonwn Pathway

Acute cholecystitis (AC) is the second most frequent pathology in Surgical Emergencies; laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is the gold standard treatment, but not all patients are fit for surgery. Percutaneous Cholecystostomy (PC) is an alternative to LC but has high comorbidity. There is no protocol in our institution for Non-Surgical Treatment (NST). This study aims to analyse the complications of non-surgical treatment and a new local management algorithm

Read the detailed description

It's a single-centre retrospective study of 1652 adults with AC from 2011 to 2022, including baseline demographic characteristics, comorbidity severity defined as the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), ASA Score, and Tokyo Guidelines' severity classification. The primary outcome is to study the complications of NST.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Cholecystitis, run by Hospital del Mar.

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 1 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 19 Jan 2024. 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?

Complications (time frame: 2011-2022). 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 19 Jan 2024.
