About this study

The aim is to study feasibility,advantages and disadvantages of early closure of stoma versus late closure of stoma

Read the detailed description

Most traumatic colon injuries can be repaired primarily, but a stoma may still be required for severe colonic or rectal injury. The current trend is to reverse the stoma early, rather than to wait the traditional 3 months before closure)1-3) Trauma patients, however, are usually young and otherwise healthy individuals, with an excellent potential for optimal healing once they have overcome the initial insult. It is these patients who could benefit from early closure of the stoma(4-6). Once the temporary stoma has been constructed, various reasons have been cited for the development of colon-related complications after closure. The timing of the operation, the age of the patient, the type of colostomy, and the use of primary or delayed skin closure have all been implicated(7-8). Of all these, the timing of the operation is the most controversial. The early closure of a temporary stoma has many attractions. It can reduce hospitalization time and cost, eliminates the need for stoma care by the patient, and abolishes the psychologic, social, and financial burdens of a stoma in an otherwise healthy person(9-11)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing stoma closure in people with Stoma Colostomy, run by Assiut University.

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

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 mahgoub A mahgoub, RD (01066892653, mahgoub449@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Early versus late stoma closure after traumatic colorectal injuries (time frame: Baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05792579, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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?
