Overview

This study investigates the increased rate of robotic atypical segmentectomies. Segmentectomy refers to removing a section of a lobe of the lung. Reviewing patients' data retrospectively may help researchers determine whether robotic surgery has led to an increase in atypical segmentectomy.

Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the rate of increase in robotic segmentectomies performed at our institution per year.

II. To evaluate the rate of typical and atypical segmentectomies performed at our institution per year.

III. To characterize the differences in robotic versus other types of resections such as open and VATS (video-assisted thoracic surgery).

OUTLINE

Patients' medical records are reviewed retrospectively.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who underwent a lung resection from 2004 to 2019

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
