Prophylactic Pancreatic Stent for the Prevention of Post Operative Pancreatic Fistula
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) remains one of the most harmful complications after pancreatic resection. Some studies have indicated that endoscopic pancreatic stenting was effective in the treatment of POPF. However, the results of prospective RCTs for the prophylactic effect of pancreatic stent insertion against POPF were controversial. This single center prospective randomized trial was designed to compare the outcome after segmental pancreatectomy with prophylactic drainage stent versus no stent.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Postoperative pancreatic fistula [from postoperative day 3 to 30]
Grade B and C
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Severity of pancreatic fistula [from postoperative day 3 to 30]
Grade B POPF requires changes in clinical management, such as persistent drainage, partial or total parenteral nutrition, antibiotics, enteral nutrition, somatostatin analogs, and/or minimal invasive drainage. Grade C POPF requires major changes in management, such as admission to an intensive care unit, reoperation, and/or an extended hospital stay.
- Length of stay [from postoperative day 1 to discharge]
Length of hospital stay
