Feasibility and Effectiveness of Augmented Reality Assistance System for Pancreatic Surgery

Recruiting

Both
Phase N/A
  • Simplified (AI rewritten)
  • Technical (Original)

Pancreatic cancer often needs surgery to remove the tumor completely. However, this surgery is tough because the pancreas is close to important blood vessels. To make surgery safer and more successful, doctors are investigating using Augmented Reality Assistance Systems (ARAS). Augmented reality is a technology that adds computer-generated images to the real world. This study will test if using ARAS during surgery can be helpful. Doctors will wear special devices that show 3D images of the pancreas to help them during the operation. This study is important because it could make surgeries more precise.

  • This study is for patients over 18 years old having pancreatic surgery.
  • It does not include patients with tumors that can't be removed.
  • Participants will need to agree to join the study by signing a consent form.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
