🚨 Significant interrater variability in scoring the ASA classification for patients undergoing HPB surgery
📊 Survey 1283 surgeons/anaesthesiologists
🌎 55 countries
‼️ Additional guidance is needed, until then more objective measurements should be used for case-mix adjustment
Inter-rater variability for the American Society of Anesthesiologists classification in patients undergoing hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery (MILESTONE-2): international survey among surgeons and anaesthesiologists
➡️doi.org/10.1093/bjsopen/zrae…
This is an international survey and case-vignette study including 1283 participants from 55 countries. Interrater variability regarding the ASA classification in patients undergoing HPB surgery was observed, which may impact perioperative strategy. Additional guidance to classify patients according to ASA is urgently needed. Until then, more objective measurements should be considered for case-mix adjustment within research.

In @JNCCN our nationwide study on quality of life in patients with locally advanced PDAC🇳🇱
⭐️QoL remains stable over time, regardless of receiving treatment (89%)
‼️Symptoms significantly deteriorate and deserve attention

🟠 Recurrence after PDAC resection is sadly a fact
🔵 @EAHPBA study on 333 pts reveals routine imaging in post op 👍 vs. symptomatic FU
💡Prompt access chemo = better survival

Our master-project in print 🤩 🇳🇱 @JAMASurgery
‼️ Main message: 61% of all pancreatic cancer patients does not receive tumor directed treatment!
➡️ This warrants further investigation
14 Feb 2024
Can one randomize all patients with #PancreaticCancer in a single country 🇳🇱 in a stepped-wedge RCT to improve guideline-based care? Yes✅ #PACAP1
Did this improve treatment nationwide? Yes, partially✅
Did this improve survival? No⛔️
🔑 Why? 61% of 5800 patients received no cancer-directed treatment… @DPCG_official
Today: #PACAP1 trial in @JAMASurgery jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
