• Pain management plan implementation for major open abdominal surgeries

  This trial tests an opioid-epidural pain management approach to see if it improves post-surgical pain control for adults undergoing open abdominal procedures like colectomy, hepatectomy, and nephrectomy.

  Recruiting National and Kapodistrian University of Athens · Athens, Athens · NCT07901582

• See if Continuous Glucose Monitoring can help diagnose dumping syndrome after esophagectomy

  Researchers are testing whether a wearable continuous glucose monitor can help spot dumping syndrome in people who had esophageal cancer surgery with a stomach tube reconstruction.

  Recruiting Samsung Medical Center · Seoul, Gangnam-gu Irwon-Ro 81 · NCT07605481

• Paravertebral Catheter Analgesia Versus Epidural Analgesia for Totally Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy

  This trial tests whether paravertebral catheter analgesia can provide comparable pain control to epidural analgesia for patients undergoing totally minimally invasive esophagectomy.

  Recruiting University Hospital, Lille · Lille · NCT07434739

• Postoperative Low Oxygen and Chance of Leaks After Esophageal Surgery

  This study looks at whether low oxygen levels after esophageal cancer surgery increase the chance of an anastomotic leak.

  Recruiting at 6 sites Sun Yat-sen University · Guangzhou, Guangdong and 5 other locations · NCT07309991

• Comparing Botox and surgery for stomach drainage during esophagectomy

  This study is testing whether Botox injections can help people who have had esophagus surgery manage delayed stomach emptying just as well as surgery can.

  Recruiting Phase 2/3 The Cleveland Clinic · Cleveland, Ohio · NCT06721520

• Left-sided stellate ganglion block to lower post-surgery atrial fibrillation risk

  This will test if giving an ultrasound-guided left stellate ganglion block with bupivacaine to adults having esophagectomy, pneumonectomy, or lobectomy lowers their chance of atrial fibrillation after surgery.

  Recruiting Phase 4 University of Minnesota · Minneapolis, Minnesota · NCT06271707

• Collecting health outcomes from robotic esophagectomy procedures

  This study is collecting health information from patients who have robotic esophagectomy surgery to see how it affects their recovery and overall health.

  Recruiting Northwestern University · Chicago, Illinois · NCT05950438

• Survey for patients with esophageal cancer and upper digestive diseases

  This study is trying to gather information from patients with esophageal cancer and other upper digestive issues to see how they are doing after treatment and improve future care.

  Recruiting Mayo Clinic · Rochester, Minnesota · NCT02530983

• Comparing outcomes of minimally invasive and open esophagectomy for esophageal cancer

  This study is trying to see if patients with esophageal cancer do better in terms of recovery and quality of life after having a minimally invasive surgery compared to traditional open surgery.
