Conditions
Digestive and Urological Surgery
Registration Number
NCT06448494
Lead Sponsor
Gérond'if
Brief Summary

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of experimental management by digestive or urological "new Peri-Operative Geriatric Units", on post-operative follow-up in the 3 months following the procedure.

Medical follow-up in the 10 days following the operation up to discharge, and patient outcomes in the 3 months following the operation, will be documented.

These data will be compared with data from subjects operated on in the reference year.

Detailed Description

This is a multicenter, non-interventional, prospective retrospective study:

* Prospective group: inclusion of patients scheduled to undergo one of the 9 procedures targeted by the "new Peri-Operative Geriatric Units" trial (colectomy, cholecystectomy, , transurethral prostatectomy, transurethral or transcutaneous procedure for non-lithiasis conditions, kidney and ureter procedure and major bladder surgery for tumor condition esophageal, gastric and duodenal procedure for malignancy, transurethral bladder resection)

* Retrospective group: inclusion of patients who were operated in 2019

This study will assess whether "Peri-Operative Geriatric Units" for digestive or urinary surgery is beneficial for :

* Medical follow-up in the 10 days following the operation and up to discharge (simple follow-up, complications, return to the operating room, etc.),

* Patient outcomes in the 3 months following surgery (discharge date, geriatric assessment, rehospitalization, other significant medical events, etc.).

These data will be compared with those of patients operated on in the reference year prior to pandemic Covid-19 (2019), who unlike you will not have benefited from "new Peri-Operative Geriatric Units" care.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Assessment of the effectiveness of experimental management by geriatric peri-operative digestive or urological units3 months
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Assessment of a patient's pre-operative state of health according The American Society of Anaesthesiologists score (ASA)3 months

To determine if patient is healthy enough to tolerate surgery and anesthesia

Assessment of commorbidity risk according Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI)At inclusion

The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) assesses the level of comorbidity by considering the level of severity of 19 predefined comorbid disorders and the number of disorders present among them.

Screening for a nutritional disorder according Body Mass Index (BMI) score3 months
Assessment of the degree of patient dependence according Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living (ADL)3 months

Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living is an unabbreviated scale title.

This Index ranks adequacy of performance in the six functions of bathing, dressing, toileting, transferring, continence, and feeding. Patients are scored yes/no for independence in each of the six functions. A score of 6 indicates full function, 4 indicates moderate impairment, and 2 or less indicates severe functional impairment.

Assessment of patient's level of dependence through an appreciation of instrumental activities of daily living according Lawton scale3 months
