Effect of Immunonutrition on Inflamatory Markers After Bariatric Surgery

February 12, 2018 updated by: Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria de la Fundación Jiménez Díaz

A Controlled, Randomized, Open Clinical Trial to Compare the Effect of Preoperatory Treatment With Immunonutrition vs Hyperproteic Nutritional Supplements on Postoperative Inflammation Markers in Patients Going Through Bariatric Surgery

A prospective randomized clinical trial of all the patients undergoing Roux - en-Y gastric bypass will be performed. Patients will be randomly assigned into 2 groups: those patients receiving a preoperative balanced energy high-protein formula (group 1) and those receiving preoperative Immunonutrition (group 2). Changes between groups in acute inflamatory markers, pain, postoperative septic complications and lenght of stay, among others will be investigated.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

A prospective randomized clinical trial of all the patients undergoing Roux - en-Y gastric bypass will be performed. Patients will be randomly assigned into 2 groups: those patients receiving a preoperative balanced energy high-protein formula (group 1) and those receiving preoperative Immunonutrition (group 2). Changes between groups in acute inflamatory markers (CRP, fibrinogen, leucocites), pain (VAS scale), postoperative septic complications .(anastomotic leak and organ/space SSI)and lenght of stay, among others will be investigated.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Decrease in systemic inflamatory response in terms of CRP
Time Frame: 24h after surgery
Proportion of patients with at least a 50% decrease in CRP 24 after surgery
24h after surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
