About this study

Official title: Intrahepatic Blood Flow Occlusion Strategies and Postoperative Cardiac Injury Risk in Partial Hepatectomy: a Ten-Year Retrospective Study

The goal of this observational study is to examine whether intrahepatic blood flow occlusion strategies during partial hepatectomy are associated with postoperative cardiac injury in patients undergoing hepatectomy. The primary questions it seeks to address are:

  1. Are the intrahepatic blood flow occlusion method, the number of occlusions, and the cumulative occlusion time associated with postoperative cardiac injury?
  2. How do intrahepatic blood flow occlusion, intraoperative hypotension, and postoperative cardiac injury interact? Participants will contribute their inpatient medical records, including information on medical history, surgical procedures, and anesthesia details.
Read the detailed description

Liver resection is currently the primary surgical treatment for liver tumors, injuries, and other diseases. With the continuous development of surgical techniques, its application has been expanding. However, intraoperative bleeding and poor surgical field exposure remain major challenges in liver resection, seriously affecting the safety and efficacy of the operation.

Hepatic inflow occlusion is a commonly used technique to address these challenges. It can effectively reduce intraoperative bleeding and improve surgical field exposure. However, it can also lead to hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury, which may aggravate the damage to the remnant liver and even affect liver regeneration.

Recent studies suggest that hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury may affect distant organs such as the kidneys, brain, lungs, and heart. However, there is still insufficient clinical evidence, especially regarding myocardial injury. In addition, intraoperative hypotension is a common complication of liver resection and may exacerbate the impact of ischemia-reperfusion injury on the myocardium.

This study intends to construct a model incorporating variables related to intraoperative hepatic ischemia and reperfusion, and analyze the relationship between hepatic inflow occlusion and postoperative myocardial injury in liver resection using logistic regression, while considering the mediating effect of hypotension. The results of this study will provide important clinical evidence for optimizing liver resection strategies, reducing myocardial injury, and improving patient prognosis. This research holds significant scientific and clinical value, and is expected to improve the quality of liver surgery and patient survival rates.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Perioperative Myocardial Injury and Myocardial Injury After Non-Cardiac Surgery, run by Beijing Tsinghua Chang Gung Hospital.

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 4 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 20 Feb 2025. 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?

Myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) (time frame: Within 3 days after sugery). 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 20 Feb 2025.
