No tube, better recovery? new study challenges routine after pancreatic surgery

NCT ID NCT07321470

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compares two ways of managing the nasogastric tube (a tube through the nose into the stomach) after pancreatic surgery. One group will have the tube removed right after surgery, while the other group will not have it placed at all. The goal is to see if skipping the tube entirely leads to fewer complications and less discomfort. About 240 adults aged 20–75 with tumors near the pancreas will take part.
