NCT03754907

Brief Summary

Neonatal intestinal atresia is the most difficult disease to apply stapled anastomosis. However, there are no high-quality clinical trial to verify its effectiveness. Therefore, the investigators compared the outcomes of stapled and hand-sewn anastomosis in neonate with intestinal atresia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Treatment success rate

    Treatment success rate is defined as a patient successfully undergoing two respectively operative methods in two groups , resulting in discharge from the hospital without the need for reoperation intervention and no complication happened during a minimum follow-up of 1 year (treatment efficacy).

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Operative time(minute)

    1 year

  • Estimated blood loss(ml)

    1 year

  • Time to initial oral feeding

    1 year

  • Time to full oral feeding

    1 year

  • anastomotic leakage and stricture

    1year

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (1)

Study Arms (2)

stapled anastomosis group

EXPERIMENTAL

Following the first side-to-side anastomosis at the antimesenteric border in both intestinal limbs, the staple lines are oversewn to reinforce the crotch. Thereafter, the stapler is again fired across the joined intestinal limbs to close the enterotomies. The suture line of the side-to-side anastomosis should not overlap, and the staple lines are oversewn to reinforce the double-stapled areas.

Procedure: Endocutter stapler

hand-sewn anastomosis group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients chose HA group will performed in an end-to-end manner using absorbable suture material.

Procedure: suture material

Interventions

Endocutter ETS 35, ETS Flex 45 stapler, and the Echelon Flex Powered ENDOPATH Stapler with 2.5- or 3.5-mm staples (Johnson \& Johnson K.K., Tokyo, Japan)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients were eligible if they were between 1 day and 30 days of age, and if they suffered from intestinal atresia.

You may not qualify if:

  • These patients were complicated with intestinal perforation and peritonitis, instability of vital signs.
  • Stapled anastomosis could not be performed when the intestinal lumen could not admit a 22-Fr soft catheter.
