About this study

Official title: Active Versus Non Active Drainage for the Treatment of Infected Intra-abdominal Collection: a Randomized Prospective Trial

The Percutaneous drainage of symptomatic intra-abdominal collection (primary or secondary to surgery)is the treatment of choice in the absence of peritonitis signs. In critically ill patients, this procedure allows to avoid or postpone surgery. In these settings, the percutaneous drain can be either in Active Vacuum Pressure or in Free drainage. However, no prospective trials has assessed the efficiency of these two modalities of drainage in cases of infected intra-abdominal collections. The investigators aimed then to prospectively analyzed the efficiency (in term of infectious control) of drainage under active vacuum pressure vs. free drainage for the treatment of infected intra-abdominal collections.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Surgery and Pancreatitis, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jan 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Switzerland. 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 Nicolas Demartines, M.D. (+41 21 314 24 00, nicolas.demartines@chuv.ch), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

time of drainage (time frame: 90 days after drianage). 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 23 Jan 2012.
