Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Postoperative complication rates in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy remain high although the operation techniques have developed a lot in recent years. There is evidence that restrictive intraoperative fluid therapy could decrease postoperative complication rates but the results of the former studies have been somewhat controversial. The aim of this study is to examine whether the intraoperative and postoperative fluid therapy affect to the postoperative complication rates in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study is a retrospective cohort study. The first cohort consists of patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy in year 2015 when intraoperative fluid therapy were managed using goal directed fluid therapy technique. The second cohort consists of patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy in year 2017 when intraoperative fluid therapy were based on the consideration of the anaesthesiologist. In 2015 most of the patients spent the first postoperative night in the ICU where the fluid management and monitoring of the urine output and vital functions were more controlled than in the normal ward. In 2017 most of the patients got in the regular ward right after the surgery. The aim of the study is to examine whether there are differences in the amounts of the intraoperative and postoperative fluids between the cohorts and does the perioperative fluid therapy affect to the complication rates.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Pancreaticoduodenectomy in 2015

Patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy in 2015 got intraoperative fluid therapy in goal directed fluid therapy technique. Most of the patients spent the first postoperative night in ICU where the monitoring of urine output and fluid balance are more specific than in a normal ward.

Goal directed fluid therapy

Intervention Type OTHER

Patients in 2015 got intraoperative fluid therapy in goal directed fluid therapy technique.

Pancreaticoduodenectomy in 2017

Patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy in 2017 got liberal intraoperative fluid therapy and most of the patients spent the first postoperative night in a regular ward.

Liberal fluid therapy

Intervention Type OTHER

Patients in 2017 got liberal intraoperative fluid therapy influenced by their anaesthesiologist.
