NCT03055676

Brief Summary

The aim of this randomized prospective multicenter study is to demonstrate the hypothesis that early removal of drain could reduce the incidence of major complications (grade 2-4) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) , when compared with later removal of drain.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The sum of grade 2- 4 complications

    The severity of complication was measured by Clavein Dindo classifications and grade 2- 4 complications always affect the recovery of the patients significantly.However, the death case (grade 5 complication) is rare now for PD in high volume centers. According to our single center study, early drain removal could reduce the rate of grade 2-4 complications by 12% for the patients undergoing major pancreatectomy.

    Up to postoperative 90 days

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Intra-abdominal bleeding

    Up to postoperative 90 days

  • Delayed gastric emptying

    Up to postoperative 90 days

  • Grade B/C complications

    Up to postoperative 90 days

  • Length of hospital stay (day)

    Up to postoperative 90 days

  • Comprehensive complication index (CCI)

    Up to postoperative 90 days

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
