Official Title: THE USE OF FLOSEAL GELATIN MATRIX FOR THE HAEMOSTASIS DURING LAPAROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY FOR ACUTE CHOLECYSTITIS; EFFICACY AND SAFETY EVALUATED IN A MULTICENTER, PROSPECT
Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect and safety of Floseal in this preliminary prospective trial with patients undergoing acute laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis
Detailed Summary:
Sponsor: University of Bologna
Current Primary Outcome: to evaluate the percentage of patients with complete haemostasis 10 minutes after laparoscopic application of haemostatic agent (Floseal) to the gall bladder bed. [ Time Frame: 10 minutes ]
Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
Current Secondary Outcome:
- • Percentage of patients with complete haemostasis evaluated at 2, 4 and 6 minutes after laparoscopic application of haemostatic agent (Floseal) to the gall bladder bed. [ Time Frame: 6 minutes ]
- • Surgery time. [ Time Frame: 3 year ]
- • Percentage of patients with conversion from laparoscopic procedure to open laparotomy (conversion rate). [ Time Frame: 3 year ]
- • Percentage of patients developing post operative bleeding leading to re-operation. [ Time Frame: 3 year ]
- • Percentage of patients developing post operative bleeding leading to transfusion of blood [ Time Frame: 3 year ]
- • Percentage of patients developing post operative biliary leaking. [ Time Frame: 3 year ]
- • Time to drain removal. [ Time Frame: 3 year ]
- • Mortality. [ Time Frame: 3 year ]
- • Length of stay in hospital. [ Time Frame: 3 year ]
- • Safety evaluated as number of patients with adverse events and serious adverse events until end of the study. [ Time Frame: 3 year ]
Original Secondary Outcome: Same as current
