Assessment of Postoperative Lymphopenia as Risk Factor for Postoperative Infections

NCT02799251 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 1125

Last updated 2021-01-20

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Postoperative infections are one of the most common complications in thoracic and digestive cancer surgery. Former studies have demonstrated that inflammatory response is altered during peri-operative period causing lymphopenia. It has been suggested that lymphopenia may contribute to postoperative infection. To date, no one has proved it in a multivariate analysis. The aim of this study is to determine if lymphopenia is associated with postoperative infections in thoracic and digestive cancer surgery.

Conditions

  • Cancer of the Digestive System
  • Thoracic Diseases

Interventions

OTHER

Collection of plasma cell rate

Lymphocytes counts are obtained from patients undergoing pulmonary or digestive cancer surgery. The rates are assessed before surgery (day 0) and at days 1, 3, 5 and 8 after surgery. Anesthetic and surgical procedures are collected as well as risk factors for postoperative infections recognized in the literature. Clinical and biological signs of infection are collected.
