Benchmarking of aggregated length of stay after open and laparoscopic surgery for cancers of the digestive system
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-04-23)<i>Background</i>: Length of hospital stay (LOS) may serve as a surrogate measure of healthcare quality and resource use, particularly when transfers of care and readmissions are accounted for. This study aimed to benchmark true hospital stay by measuring index, transfer and readmission stays across the range of digestive cancer surgery.<p> <p><i>Methods</i>: A cohort study of all patients ... -
Centralizing a national pancreatoduodenectomy service: striking the right balance
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-07)<i>Background</i> - Centralization of pancreatic surgery is currently called for owing to superior outcomes in higher‐volume centres. Conversely, organizational and patient concerns speak for a moderation in centralization. Consensus on the optimal balance has not yet been reached. This observational study presents a volume–outcome analysis of a complete national cohort in a health system with ... -

Diverting stomas reduce reoperation rates for anastomotic leak but not overall reoperation rates within 30 days after anterior rectal resection: a national cohort study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-06-24)Purpose A diverting stoma is commonly formed to reduce the rate of anastomotic leak following anterior resection with anastomosis, although some studies question this strategy. The aim of this study was to assess the leak rates and overall complication burden after anterior resection with and without a diverting stoma.<p> <p>Methods A 5-year national cohort with prospectively registered data of ... -
Laparoscopic rectal cancer resection yields comparable clinical and oncological results with shorter hospital stay compared to open access: a 5-year national cohort
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-04)Purpose Although widely applied, the results following laparoscopic rectal resection (LRR) compared to open rectal resection (ORR) are still debated. The aim of this study was to assess clinical short- and long-term results as well as oncological resection quality following LRR or ORR for cancer in a 5-year national cohort.<p> <p>Methods Data from the Norwegian Registry for Gastrointestinal Surgery ... -
Lower conversion rate with robotic assisted rectal resections compared with conventional laparoscopy; a national cohort study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-18)<i>Background</i> - Conversion from laparoscopic to open access colorectal surgery is associated with a poorer postoperative outcome. The aim of this study was to assess conversion rates and outcomes after standard laparoscopic rectal resection (LR) and robotic laparoscopic rectal resection (RR).<br><br> <i>Methods</i> - A national 5-year cohort study utilizing prospectively recorded data on ... -
Preoperative Inflammatory Markers in Liver Resection for Colorectal Liver Metastases: A National Registry-Based Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-05-04)Background Preoperative inflammatory markers were shown to be associated with prognosis following surgery for hepato-pancreato-biliary cancer. Yet little evidence exists about their role in patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). This study aimed to examine the association between selected preoperative inflammatory markers and outcomes of liver resection for CRLM.<p> <p>Methods Data ... -
The Role of Preoperative Inflammatory Markers in Pancreatectomy: a Norwegian Nationwide Cohort Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-06-15)Background and purpose Preoperative infammatory markers, such as Glasgow prognostic score, modifed Glasgow prognostic score and C-reactive protein to albumin ratio, were shown to be associated with prognosis in patients undergoing pancreatectomy for cancer. However, little is known about their predictive role in a Western population.<p> <p>Methods The Norwegian National Registry for Gastrointestinal ... -
Short-term outcomes after elective colon cancer surgery: an observational study from the Norwegian registry for gastrointestinal and HPB surgery, NoRGast
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-11-09)BACKGROUND: To describe the real burden of major complications after elective surgery for colon cancer in Norway, and to assess which predictors that are significantly associated with the short-term outcome. <br> <br> METHODS: An observational, multi-centre analysis of prospectively registered colon resections registered into the Norwegian Registry for Gastrointestinal Surgery, NoRGast, between ... -
Simultaneous Resection of Primary Colorectal Cancer and Synchronous Liver Metastases: Contemporary Practice, Evidence and Knowledge Gaps
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-03-23)The timing of surgical resection of synchronous liver metastases from colorectal cancer has been debated for decades. Several strategies have been proposed, but high-level evidence remains scarce. Simultaneous resection of the primary tumour and liver metastases has been described in numerous retrospective audits and meta-analyses. The potential benefits of simultaneous resections are the eradication ... -
Translation and validation of the Norwegian version of the postoperative quality of recovery score QoR-15
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-08)Background As patient-centered care gains more attention, assessing the patient's perspective on their recovery has become increasingly important. In response to the need for a reliable and valid patient reported outcome measurement tool for major surgical resections in Norway. The Norwegian Registry for Gastrointestinal Surgery (NORGAST) initiated a project to translate and evaluate QoR-15's ... -
Treatment and survival of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma: 15-year national cohort
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-08)Background - Improvement in survival from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has been reported in trial settings but is less explored in unselected cohorts. The aim of this study was to assess trends in provision of treatments and survival in Norway over a 15-year period following the implementation of hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) multidisciplinary teams, centralization of surgery, and ... -
Variation in use of open and laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy and associated outcome metrics in a universal health care system
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-08-01)<i>Background</i> - Universal health care (UHC) should ensure equal access to and use of surgery, but few studies have explored variation in UHC systems. The objective was to describe practice of distal pancreatectomy in Norway covered exclusively by an UHC.<p><p> <i>Methods</i> - Data on all patients undergoing distal pancreatectomy from the Norwegian Patient Register over a 5-year period. ... -
Weight loss and BMI criteria in GLIM's definition of malnutrition is associated with postoperative complications following abdominal resections – Results from a National Quality Registry
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-20)<i>Background & aims</i> - Although malnutrition is thought to be common among patients with intraabdominal diseases and is recognized as a risk factor for postoperative complications, diagnostic criteria for malnutrition have not been consistent. Thus, the Global Leadership Initiative in Malnutrition (GLIM) has recently published new criteria for malnutrition. The aims of this study were to investigate ... -
