Clinical Trial: CRP Point-of-care Testing Trajectory, a Predictive Factor for Anastomotic Leak in Elective Colorectal Surgery

U.S., March 12 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07464600) titled 'CRP Point-of-care Testing Trajectory, a Predictive Factor for Anastomotic Leak in Elective Colorectal Surgery' on Nov. 17, 2025.

Brief Summary: In colorectal surgery, one of the most feared complications is anastomotic leak (AL). To limit the consequences of AL, it must be diagnosed as early as possible, before it becomes symptomatic. Digestive surgeons use a variety of pre-, per- and post-operative techniques to reduce the rate of anastomotic fistula, but the risk persists, with a rate of 7% reported in the literature. It has been shown that the value of CRP between D1 and D5 correlates with the risk of AL, and that the trajectory...
