E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
3 months after surgery |
3 mesi dall'intervento |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
Effectiveness Parameters: 1. proportion of patients with grade 2 and grade 3 lymphedema at the discharge, at 6 weeks and 6 months after the surgery; 2.developing of symptomatic or asymptomatic lymphoceles; 3. if lymphoceles drainage, quantity of dained fluid; 4. number of days with drains (the removal of drains is forecast when the drained liquid is < 50cc); 4.volume of drained fluid each day 5. developing of other complications related to lymph node dissection such as infections, haematomas and wound dehiscence. SAFETY EVALUATION:1.angiooedeme, burning and pain in the drug application point (inguinal careful inspection during the hospitalization and during the follow-up medical examinations);2. increase of body temperature (measured during all the hospitalization period, 3 times a day); 4. bronchospasm, shivers, burst of heat, headache, hypotension, lethargy, feeling sick, tachycardia, feeling of thoracic constriction, tingling, vomiting (evaluation of all these parameters in the period after the surgery to detect possible hyper sensibility reactions). |
VALUTAZIONE EFFICACIA:1. proporzione di pazienti che riportano linfedema di grado 2 o 3 alla dimissione e a mesi 6 dall'intervento; 2. sviluppo di linfoceli sintomatici e asintomatici; 3. se drenaggio dei linfoceli: quantità di liquido drenato; 4. durata di mantenimento del drenaggio (assumendo che venga tolto quando il liquido drenato sia < a 50cc); 5. volume di liquido fuoriuscito dai drenaggi; 6. sviluppo di complicanze post-operatorie quali ematomi, cellulite, deiscenza ferite. VALUTAZIONE SICUREZZA: 1.- angioedema, bruciore o dolore in corrispondenza del sito di applicazione del farmaco (ispezione accurata della zona inguinale durante tutti i giorni della degenza e nelle visite di follow up); 2. rialzo della temperatura corporea (misurazione durante tutto il periodo di degenza, 3 volte al giorno); 3.broncospasmo, brividi, vampate, orticaria generalizzata, cefalea, ipotensione, letargia, nausea, irrequietezza, tachicardia, senso di costrizione toracica, formicolio, vomito, sibili (valutazione nel post-operatorio per individuare possibili reazioni di ipersensibilità) |
