About

The objective of this study is to compare open and minimally invasive pancreatic and liver resection techniques and analyze the different outcome variables from the clinical standpoint.

The plan is to investigate patient survival, length of stay, complication rates, operative time, transfusion rate, 30 and 90-day readmission rate, and hospital charges.

Full description

The plan is to conduct a retrospective chart review of patients who have undergone pancreatic and liver resection by using Meditech and Epic. A non-identified database will be created after retrospectively reviewing each patient case involving pancreatic or liver resection at MDMC. The study period will start in January 2006 until December 2020. Variables will include demographics, clinical disease diagnoses, and operative parameters as well as indirect charges from the hospitalizations.
