About this study

Official title: An International Study Investigating the Adoption and Outcome of Damage Control Surgery in Hinchey III-IV Acute Diverticulitis (DACOSAD)

To analyze the possible benefit of damage control surgery by performing bowel resection, open abdomen, and delayed anastomosis in the treatment of Hinchey III or IV diverticulitis.

Read the detailed description

Hartmann procedure (HP) is still widely performed in the treatment of purulent or fecal generalized peritonitis as a consequence of a complicated acute large bowel diverticulitis (the so labeled III and IV grade of the Hinchey's classification). More than half of those patients do not undergo to stoma reversal because of its association with significant morbidity and mortality. To date, the use of resection with primary anastomosis (PA) should be preferred, as it is reported in the literature that it is more favorable than HP in terms of morbidity, mortality, and length of postoperative stay. However, PA is often reserved for younger patients with few co-morbidities and a lesser degree of peritoneal contamination while HP is performed in the elderly. Initially described for the treatment of major abdominal injuries, indications for Damage Control Surgery (DCS) have subsequently been extended to septic shock, abdominal compartment syndrome and impossibility to perform a primary closure. In the last decade, DCS has emerged as a valid alternative to HP and Resection-Anastomosis (RA) in patients presenting a severe sepsis caused by purulent or fecal peritonitis in acute diverticulitis. Although DCS is cited as an option in case of impaired hemodynamic status in face of perforated acute diverticulitis, there is still no consensus about such use of DCS. Previous study demonstrated that DCS reduce the Hartmann rate in patients otherwise scheduled for such procedure.

The aim of this study was to describe the potential rationale and outcome of the Damage Control Surgery in patients with purulent and fecal peritonitis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diverticular Perforation and Open Abdomen, run by Link Campus University at 9 sites in 2 countries.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in Italy, Chile. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Gianluca Costa, Prof. (+39 06 22541 8851, g.costa@unilink.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mortality (time frame: 60 days). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT06428370, which also lists 11 linked publications.

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 5 Jun 2024.
