HYPPO: Incidence and Clinical Impact of Serum Hyperamylasemia (POH) After Pancreatectomy on Postoperative Outcome and Patient Safety
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Recent evidence suggests that postoperative hyperamylasemia (POH) is a predictor of morbidity after pancreatectomy. This is based on the assumption that pancreatitis after pancreatectomy (PPAP) is a major trigger for the development of complications and is indicated by hyperamylasemia. Standardized prospective analysis and correlation with other laboratory parameters, hasn't been performed to date.
Therefore the overall study aims are:
-
To prospectively evaluate the incidence and assess the clinical value of biochemical changes for the postoperative course.
-
To confirm and improve the definition and classification of postpancreatectomy acute pancreatitis (PPAP) of the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) and to provide knowledge for effective early management of complications.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of PPAP (Postpancreatectomy Acute Pancreatitis) [90 days after surgery]
Incidence after pancreasresection (pancreatoduodenectomy and distal pancreas resection) according to the definition of ISGPS (International Study Group on Pancreatic Surgery)
- Significance of biochemical changes (postoperative hyperamylasemia and hyperlipasemia) [90 days after surgery]
Correlation with postoperative complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification and Comprehensive Complication Index ( CCI)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Correlation between hyperamylasemia and rescue pancreatectomy after pancreatoduodenectomy [90 days after surgery]
Incidence of rescue pancreatectomy after pancreatoduodenectomy with postoperative hyperamylasemia
- Correlation between hyperamylasemia and radiological findings for pancreatitis [90 days after surgery]
Incidence of pancreatitis according to the CT scan postoperatively
- Incidence of postoperative mortality [90 days after surgery]
Postoperative death after complications
