About this study

Official title: Early Versus Delayed Postoperative Enteral Feeding to Reduce the Incidence of Perineal Wound Infection Following Anterior Sagittal Anorectoplasty of Congenital Recto-vestibular Fistula

to study the effect of early vs delayed enteral feeding following ASARP in females with congenital recto-vestibular fistula

Read the detailed description

congenital Recto vestibular fistula represents the commonest type of anorectal malformation in females. The treatment of this anomaly is mainly approached either through anterior or posterior sagittal ano-rectoplasty approach. Several perioperative factors may affect the outcome. One of major postoperative complications is the occurrence of wound infection.

Purpose: we aimed to study the effect of delayed vs early postoperative enteral feeding on the occurrence of postoperative wound infection and dehiscence.

Patients and methods:

A prospective randomized trial included 55 infants with recto-vestibular fistula. All infants were managed by single stage anterior sagittal anorectoplasty at an age ≥ 3 months. Patients were divided into two groups. group A included infants who started oral intake on the 5th postoperative day and group B included infants who started oral intake on the 2nd postoperative day. The primary outcome was the onset of perineal wound infection. Group A infants were kept on peripheral parenteral nutrition during fasting period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing enteral feeding in people with Onset of Perineal Wound Infection, run by Tanta University at 1 site in Egypt.

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

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

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?

perineal wound infection (time frame: WITHIN TWO WEEKS POST OPERATIVE). 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 28 Mar 2022.
