Trial summary

The aim of this study was to determine whether changes in serum levels of syndecan-1 before and after surgery, which is an index related to injury of the endothelial glycocalyx layer, are associated with postoperative short-term complications and mortality in patients undergoing robotic esophagectomy.

What is being measured

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

  1. base blood concentration of syndecan-1

    preoperative baseline serum levels of syndecan-1

    Measured: within 1 hour before surgery

  2. blood concentration of syndecan-1 at the end of the surgery

    blood concentration of syndecan-1 at the end of the surgery

    Measured: within 5 minutes after the end of surgery (when thd surgical drape is removed)

  3. blood concentration of syndecan-1 at 24 hours after surgery

    blood concentration of syndecan-1 at 24 hours after surgery

    Measured: 24 hours after the end of surgery

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Unanticipated Post-Operative Invasive Procedure (STS GTSD 2.41 #3330)

    Indicate if the patient had an unplanned invasive procedure after surgery. Examples includes return to the operating room for a redo surgical procedure, a percutaneous procedure performed at bedside or in the radiology suite, a tracheostomy, and wound opening at bedside. Exclusions: postoperative toilet bronchoscopy, central venous access, arterial line placement, foley catheter placement.

    Measured: during this 1 day hospital visit.

  2. Anastomotic leak following esophageal surgery(STS GTSD 2.41 #3350)

    Indicate if the patient had an anastomotic leak following esophageal surgery.

    Measured: within 30days after end of surgery

  3. Respiratory Failure(STS GTSD 2.41 #3480)

    Indicate whether the patient experienced respiratory failure in the postoperative period requiring mechanical ventilation and/or reintubation.

    Measured: within 30days after end of surgery

  4. initial ventilatory support greater than 48 hours (STS GTSD 2.41 #3520)

    Indicate if the patient initially was ventilated greater than 48 hours in the postoperative period. If the patient is reintubated, select the postoperative event "Respiratory Failure" and do not select this element even if the reintubation ventilator support is > 48 hours. Ventilator support ends with the removal of the endotracheal tube or if the patient has a tracheostomy tube, until no longer ventilator dependent.

    Measured: within 30days after end of surgery

  5. pneumonia (STS GTSD 2.41 #3460)

    Indicate if the patient experienced pneumonia in the postoperative period. Pneumonia is defined as meeting three of five characteristics: fever (> 100.4 F or 38 C), leukocytosis, CXR with infiltrate, positive culture from sputum, or treatment with antibiotics.

    Measured: within 30days after end of surgery

  6. renal failure(STS GTSD 2.41 #3810)

    Indicate whether the patient had acute renal failure or worsening renal function resulting in any of the following:

    1. New requirement for dialysis post-operatively
    2. Increase in serum creatinine level 3.0 x greater than baseline
    3. serum creatinine level ≥4 mg/dL , with an acute rise of at least 0.5 mg/dl

    Measured: within 30days after end of surgery

  7. mortality(Status 30 Days after Surgery, STS GTSD 2.41 #3950)

    Indicate whether the patient was alive or dead at 30 days post-surgery (whether in the hospital or not).

    time frame: 30days post-surgery

    Measured: 30days post-surgery

  8. Acute kidney injury

    defined as an absolute increase in serum creatinine level C0.3 mg/dL, a 50% (1.5-fold) increase in serum creatinine level from baseline, or a reduction in urine output (documented oliguria< 0.5 mL/kg/h for 6h)

    Measured: within 48 h after end of surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Robotic Esophagectomy, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 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 25 Nov 2022. 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 South Korea. 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?

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?

base blood concentration of syndecan-1 (time frame: within 1 hour before surgery). 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?
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 25 Nov 2022.
