What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study looks at whether the P-POSSUM score, a tool used to predict surgical risks, can accurately forecast complications and death after abdominal surgery in patients aged 60 and older. Researchers will also check if adding a frailty assessment improves predictions. The study involves 3,000 patients at Bach Mai Hospital and uses existing medical records plus some new data. No new treatments are being tested.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better risk prediction tools for older patients undergoing abdominal surgery, helping doctors identify those at higher risk for complications.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only tests prediction accuracy, so even if it works, it won't directly improve outcomes. Results may not apply to other hospitals or populations.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Older adult patients aged 60 years or older undergoing abdominal surgery at Bach Mai Hospital. The study population includes patients identified from retrospective hospital records from January 2025 and prospectively collected data through May 2026. P-POSSUM variables, frailty-related variables, routine perioperative clinical data, postoperative complications, and treatment outcomes will be collected for prognostic evaluation.

Ages

60 years and older

Anyone

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: Patients aged 60 years or older. Patients undergoing abdominal surgery at Bach Mai Hospital. Patients managed perioperatively or postoperatively by the Center for Anesthesia and Surgical Intensive Care. Patients with available perioperative clinical data required to calculate the P-POSSUM score. Patients with available baseline clinical, comorbidity, or functional status information for frailty assessment. Patients with available postoperative outcome data for assessment of complications, mortality, or treatment outcomes. Exclusion Criteria: Patients younger than 60 years. Patients not undergoing abdominal surgery. Patients undergoing minor procedures without operative severity data required for P-POSSUM calculation. Patients with missing key physiological or operative variables required to calculate the P-POSSUM score. Patients with insufficient baseline information for frailty assessment. Patients with insufficient postoperative follow-up data for outcome assessment.
