Clinical Trial: THE ROLE OF C-REACTIVE PROTEIN (CRP) IN THE EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF ANASTOMOTIC LEAKAGE FOLLOWING PRIMARY REPAIR IN GASTROINTESTINAL SURGERY

U.S., Aug. 14 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07763379) titled 'THE ROLE OF C-REACTIVE PROTEIN (CRP) IN THE EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF ANASTOMOTIC LEAKAGE FOLLOWING PRIMARY REPAIR IN GASTROINTESTINAL SURGERY' on Aug. 10.

Brief Summary: Despite advancements in surgical procedures, Anastomotic leakage (AL) remains a common complication following gastrointestinal surgery. It carries a high rate of morbidity and mortality, increases the cost of treatment, and leads to further interventions and delayed recovery. As surgical practice advances, AL becomes a significant obstacle for gastrointestinal surgeons worldwide (Smith et al., 2023).

The rate of AL depends on the type of operation, the location of the an...
