Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
A clinical database has been prospectively maintained by the investigators, with details of pancreatic resections since January 2016. It includes pre-operative details, details of multidisciplinary team (MDT) meeting, details of pre-operative biliary stenting, intra-operative details, post-operative morbidity and mortality, details of histopathological diagnosis, recurrence and survival. Data was collected onto the database (excel sheet) from trust data software, clinic letters, Somerset Cancer registry and clinical portal.

[]Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET)/ Portsmouth - Physiological and Operative Severity Score for the enumeration of Mortality and morbidity (P-POSSUM) predicted mortality versus actual 30 day mortality
- timeFrame
- 30 days
- description
- Primary outcome is to compare predicted mortality by cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET)/ Portsmouth - Physiological and Operative Severity Score for the enumeration of Mortality and morbidity (P-Possum) score versus actual 30 day mortality, post-operatively. P-POSSUM is a scoring system for general elective and emergency surgeries which takes into account various physiological and operative parameters to calculate risk of morbidity and mortality in terms of percentages. The risk can range between 0 to 100%. The higher the percentage worse is the predicted outcome.
Secondary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET) / Portsmouth - Physiological and Operative Severity Score for the enumeration of Mortality and morbidity (P-POSSUM) predicted morbidity versus actual post-operative morbidity
- timeFrame
- 90 days

P-POSSUM is a scoring system for general elective and emergency surgeries which takes into account various physiological and operative parameters to calculate risk of morbidity and mortality in terms of percentages.
