About this study

Official title: Laparoscopy Using the Airseal System Versus Standard Insufflation in Cholecystectomy in Children

The goal of this observational study is to compare the use of Airseal versus a standard insufflation, in children who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy, between January 2021 and December 2022.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • amount of analgesics consumed postoperatively
  • mean digital pain scale

Data are directly extracted from patients medical files.

The investigators will compare the Airseal group (A group) to the Standard insufflation group (S group) to see if the A group consumes significatively less analgesics and are less painful than the S group.

Read the detailed description

Choosing to enter the A or the S group depends on the surgeon's choice.

Only the surgeon, the anesthetic and the nurses in the operating room know which type of insufflation has been chosen.

What is being measured

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

  1. Amount of analgesics consumed

    Number of takings postoperatively

    Measured: From the end of surgery to the discharge home, up to 20 days

  2. Mean Digital Pain Scale

    Digital Pain Scale: minimum is 0 out of 10 (which means no pain) and maximum is 10 out of 10 (which means very painful). Higher scores mean worse outcomes.

    Measured: From the end of surgery to the discharge home, , up to 20 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Operating time

    Time-length of surgery

    Measured: Perioperatively

  2. Anesthetic time

    Time-length of anesthesia

    Measured: Perioperatively

  3. Length of stay

    Hospital length of stay

    Measured: From the day of hospitalization to the day of discharge home, up to 20 days

  4. Histological results

    Analysis of the gall bladder after removal

    Measured: Between 2 weeks and 4 weeks after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gall Stones (& [Calculus - Gall Bladder]) and Cholecystitis, run by Destinval Christelle at 1 site in France.

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 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Amount of analgesics consumed (time frame: From the end of surgery to the discharge home, up to 20 days). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06734507, which also lists 2 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.
