Data Collection of Demographics and Perioperative Care of Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Surgery - Full Text View

Purpose

To collect, both prospectively and retrospectively, data on demographics, perioperative care, and patient outcomes in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery in the Department of Gynecologic Oncology.
To organize clinical information, patient characteristics, treatment, and laparoscopic outcome data into a single data repository, maintained in a secure platform that will provide an archive for future research.

Groups/Cohorts	Assigned Interventions
1 Laparoscopic Surgery Database	Other: Laparoscopic Surgery Data Collection Prospectively and retrospectively collect data on patients who had laparoscopic surgery since January 1, 1990 forward. Data from the initial patient visit note, consultation notes, operative report, discharge summary, and follow-up progress notes will be entered into the database.

Detailed Description:

If you agree to take part in this study, your demographic information (such as your age, race, medical and surgical history, and type of cancer) will be collected. Information about the type of surgical procedure performed on you, your care during and after your surgery, any problems related to your surgery, and details about your follow-up care will be entered into a research database. This information will be collected from patients seen at M. D. Anderson since January 1, 1990. It will be used for future research studies.

The information about your cancer and treatment will mostly come from your M. D. Anderson medical record. However, some information may also be requested from you, your home physician, or an outside hospital. The information that is received from places other than M. D. Anderson will be included in your M. D. Anderson medical record and this study-related research database. You may be contacted by research staff if researchers have additional questions of you, or if information in your outside medical records is not complete or does not match what is in your M. D. Anderson medical record.

The research database will be updated, after about 1 year, to include information on your disease outcome, treatment, and/or follow-up care. This information will be collected from your medical record, if possible. If it is not in your medical record, you may again be contacted so that researchers can learn this information.

Your participation in this study will continue up to 5 years after your laparoscopic procedure.

Before your information can be used for research, the people doing the research must get specific approval from the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of M. D. Anderson. The IRB is a committee made up of doctors, researchers, and members of the community. The IRB is responsible for protecting the participants involved in research studies and making sure all research is done in a safe and ethical manner. All research done at M. D. Anderson, including research involving your information, must first be approved by the IRB.

This is an investigational study. Up to 1,000 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at M. D. Anderson.
