Trial summary

Patients who underwent anti-reflux surgery were divided into two groups. In the I group Nissen fundoplication was supplemented with suturing wrap to the crura or the body of stomach using two non-absorbable stitches on each side. Read more about this study

About this study

Patients who underwent anti-reflux surgery were divided into two groups. In the I group Nissen fundoplication was supplemented with suturing wrap to the crura or the body of stomach using two non-absorbable stitches on each side. Control group included patients who underwent classic Nissen fundoplication without wrap fixation. All patients were assessed before and after surgery using validated symptoms and quality of life (GERD-HRQL) questionnaires, 24-h impedance-pH monitoring and barium-swallow.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Nissen Fundoplication with wrap fixationProcedure or surgery

    Firstly, we performed left crural dissection, division of the short gastric vessels, right crural dissection, and esophageal mobilization. Then repair of HH were made by simple cruroraphy if the size of the defect was less then 10 сm² otherwise mesh for reinforcement of cruroraphy was used. Creation of the wrap was made by passing posterior fundus behind the esophagus from left to right, followed by stitching the edges of the stomach with three interrupted sutures. Wrap was fixated to both diaphragmatic crura or to the body of stomach using two non-absorbable stitches on each side.

In case of weak conditions of crura or short esophagus (35 patients) fundoplication wrap was sutured to the body of stomach using two non-absorbable stitches on each side. .

What is being measured

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

  1. Recurrence rate of hiatal hernia

    Recurrence of hiatal hernia will be assessed by barium contrast swallow study

    Measured: 60 months

  2. Slipped wrap

    Slipped wrap will be assessed by barium contrast swallow study

    Measured: 60 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Quality of life and satisfaction

    Quality of life and satisfaction will be assessed by Gastroesophageal reflux disease - health-related quality of life (GERD-HRQL) score. The scale has 11 items,each item is scored from 0 to 5. A higher score indicating a better quality of life.

    Measured: 60 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nissen Fundoplication with wrap fixation and Nissen Fundoplication without wrap fixation in people with Gastro Oesophageal Reflux Disease, run by Grubnik Volodymyr.

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 10 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 6 Apr 2020. 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?

Recurrence rate of hiatal hernia (time frame: 60 months). 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?
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 6 Apr 2020.
