The primary objective of the research is to measure the effect of a 3 week prehabilitation program on the postoperative complications in patients with an anaerobic threshold of <11 ml/kg/min who*ll undergo elective coloretal surgery for…
Comparison of preoperative diets before bariatric surgery with a randomized non-inferiority trial in order to compare the standard VLCD with a standard diet.
In the Netherlands, gum chewing has not been incorporated in the standard postoperative care after intra-abdominal surgery. Therefore a multi-center RCT was set up to evaluate the influence of gum chewing on the development of ileus. Our null…
The effect of the dipeptide alanyl-glutamine, intravenously or enterally and perioperatively given, on postoperative insulin resistance in colon cancer patients.
Primary objective:To determine the relationship of route of gastroenteric anastomosis after PD and postoperative incidence of DGE.Secondary objectives:To determine the relationship of route of gastroenteric anastomosis after PD and gastric emptying…
The main objective of the present project is to assess the impact of gender, physical inactivity, obesity, and bariatric bypass surgery on basal and postprandial muscle protein synthesis rates. This will be investigated by means of three different…
Our primary aim is to tackle the factors of frailty in an early phase, which is possible in elective planned surgery. We hypothesise that optimal preparation, starting 5 weeks before surgery, will reduce the incidence of delirium from 15 % to 7.5…
In this trial we will compare two ways of suturing the ileostomy, intracutaneous sutures or transcutaneous sutures (hence the acronym ISI-trial; Intracutaneously Stitched Ileostomy trial). There is no consensus about which technique should be used.…
Patients in whom a permanent (end) colostomy is created in (semi) elective setting are randomised between the placement of a polypropylene mesh during stoma creation and the classic method without a mesh. Primary aim: Does the use of a lightweight…

The primary objective of this second phase study is to estimate the occurrence of anastomotic leakage when the C-seal is used.Secondary objectives are:* Feasibility of applying the C-seal, especially considering the improved attachement to the…
Primary objective: efficacy of the C-seal in reducing anastomotic leakage (AL).Secondary objectives: The number of dismantled anastomoses; AL within 30 days according to the ISGRC classification; interval between the operation and AL; The pain score…
To assess whether a biological mesh (collagen tissue matrix) reduces the incidence of clinically detectable stoma closure site hernias at two years compared to standard closure techniques.
Our primary objective is to compare pre-treatment with the standard low calorie diet with pre-treatment with supplemental omega-3 fatty acids on liver volume. Secondary objectives are patient satisfaction about different dietary pre-treatments, the…
Our primary objective is to study the effect of perioperative intravenous supplementation of omega-3 fatty acids on the perioperative inflammatory response compared to a saline control in patients undergoing surgery for colon cancer.
The aim of this project is to study the effect of nicotine gum chewing in the prevention or reduction of POI and reduction of opioid use on patients who underwent elective colorectal surgery, and evaluate its safety and possible adverse effects.
The primary objective of this clinical survey is to investigate the difference in morbidity and mortality after elective abdominal surgery for colon or rectal carcinoma in different age groups (55-75 years and older than 75 years).and to determine…
Primary objective:To evaluate the postoperative opioid consumption and pain after laparoscopic bariatric surgery. Our hypothesis is that less opioids will be consumed by patients in the group receiving local anesthetics compared to normal saline.…
The purpose of the proposed study is to investigate the anti-Xa levels of enoxaparin in patients after bariatric surgery and to correlate these with actual body weight.
