Appendectomy Clinical Trials

Summary: Type: prospective observational multicenter trial. Population of interest: adult patients undergoing laparoscopic appendectomy for acute appendicitis. Hypothesis : laparoscopic lavage during laparoscopic appendectomy is a practice that should be used in selected patients according to the intraperitoneal grade of contamination and grade of appendicitis. Nonregulated use of laparoscopic lavage canno...

Summary: The goal of this study is to identify the genes as well as their association with Nalbuphine. This will help the investigator to identify opioid vulnerability in Pakistani population in the postoperative patients and will contribute to overcoming the opioid crisis, resulting in better and safer outcomes. Research question is: Is there any association between the underlying genetic variations and t...

Summary: Acute appendicitis is one of the most common surgical emergencies, but diagnostic uncertainty may still lead to unnecessary appendectomy in some patients. This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the diagnostic performance of computed tomography (CT) reporting and the Appendicitis Inflammatory Response (AIR) score in adult patients undergoing appendectomy for suspected acute appendici...

Summary: The potential benefit of outpatient care for this common digestive emergency is considerable, both for the patients themselves and for the public health system: 1. Optimization of the care pathway, reducing the length of stay in hospital (a major issue in the context of the COVID-19 (coronavirus disease) pandemic) liberating patient beds and staff, and reducing the risk of nosocomial exposure. 2. ...

Summary: To evaluate whether a postoperative therapeutic strategy, Fast Track, aimed at shortening hospital stay in pediatric patients undergoing laparoscopic appendectomy for complicated acute appendicitis, yields outcomes that are not inferior to the standard therapeutic model in terms of the combined variable of adverse events within 30 days postoperatively (including postoperative abdominal abscess, pe...

Summary: The purpose of this study is to analyze Fitbit data to predict infection after surgery for complicated appendicitis and the effect this prediction has on clinician decision making.

Summary: this aim of this study is to compare the analgesic effect of Erector spinae plane (ESP) block and lateral transversus abdominis plan (TAP) block in patients undergoing open appendectomy.

Summary: Colonoscopy is a necessary item of physical examination for colorectal cancer. For high-risk groups, annual physical examination is the most effective way of early prevention; At present, a large amount of polyethylene glycol (PEG2000 - 4000) is often used as laxative and lubricant in colonoscopy. However, the widespread use of PEG may cause long-term and irreversible damage to intestinal microorg...

Summary: To compare the clinical outcomes of intraperitoneal bupivacaine instillation vs placebo as preemptive analgesia in patients undergoing open appendectomy

Summary: This prospective randomized controlled clinical trial aims to compare the analgesic effectiveness of the Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) block and the Quadratus Lumborum (QL) block in pediatric patients undergoing appendectomy. Both regional anesthesia techniques have been shown to reduce opioid requirements and improve postoperative recovery in children; however, there is limited evidence directly com...

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the effect of hot compress application to the intestines during abdominal surgery on postoperative nausea-vomiting and bowel function. Volunteers will be randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups. Initially, 30 patients will be included in each group, and the study will be completed based on the effect size determined by power analysis. Hypotheses: H0: Co...

Summary: This study aims to evaluate if adding dexmedetomidine to bupivacaine in a caudal block can provide longer and better quality pain relief for children after open appendectomy surgery. The study will also assess the effect of this combination on the quality of recovery, including the incidence of emergence delirium, and its overall safety profile.
